The hybrid system is built to integrate the strengths of expert systems, fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks and decision support technology; and to link the development of global marketing strategy with the formulation of associated Internet marketing strategy. In the paper, the system architecture, the functional modules of the hybrid system and other associated technical issues are addressed. The directions for further research in this field are also highlighted.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1108\/02635570110386643","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,4,13]],"date-time":"2007-04-13T09:51:26Z","timestamp":1176457886000},"page":"132-141","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["GloStra \u2013 a hybrid system for developing global strategy and associated Internet strategy"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"101","author":[{"given":"Shuliang","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Barry J.","family":"Davies","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2022031319575466600_B1","unstructured":"Albaum, G., Strandskov, J. and Duerr, E.
