Cloud computing systems are considered complex systems, because of the various classes of services offered for users and the big challenges for providers to meet the increasing demands. Thus, service allocation is a critical issue in cloud computing. Fuzzy modeling is one choice to deal with...

Defining whether a financial institution is systemically important (or not) is challenging due to (i) the inevitability of combining complex importance criteria such as institutions´ size, connectedness and substitutability; (ii) the ambiguity of what an appropriate threshold for those criteria...

We present a methodology to perform Financial Analysis with as much information as available. The problem we solve is the assessment of investment projects; we are to determine whether or not an investment project is profitable. We perform that task at the qualitative, semi-quantitative, and...

A general methodology for evaluation of fuzzy rules extracted from data is presented. Though the primary goal of most data mining systems is high classification or prediction accuracy, the user may be interested in rules which are not necessarily the most accurate. Our approach provides an...
