Developing a knowledge-based multi-objective decision support systems

Lu, J.; Quaddus, Mohammed; Williams, Robert - 2000

Decision Support Systems under Multiple Objectives (MODSS) has been classified as a specific type of system within the broad family of DSS and has been one of the most active areas of research. However, despite its theoretical development large scale real-world applications of multi-objective...

Adaptive expert decision making: Skilled chessplayers search more and deeper

Campitelli, G; Gobet, F - 2004

higher than in previous studies (sometimes 10 times higher). Supplementary data on memory, practice, reaction times, and time …-constrained decision making (a maximum decision time of 10 seconds) indicated that players’ behaviour was consistent with the behaviour of … conclude that long-term memory knowledge allows both extensive search and rapid evaluation when making decisions under time …

The BlueSky smoke modeling framework.

Larkin, Narasimhan K.; O'Neill, Susan M.; Solomon, Robert; … - 2009

Smoke from fire is a local, regional and often international issue that is growing in complexity as competition for airshed resources increases. BlueSky is a smoke modeling framework designed to help address this problem by enabling simulations of the cumulative smoke impacts from fires...

Market impacts of a multiyear mechanical fuel treatment program in the U.S.

Prestemon, Jeffrey P.; Abt, Karen L.; Huggett, Robert J. - 2008

We describe a two-stage model of global log and chip markets that evaluates the spatial and temporal economic effects of government-subsidized fire-related mechanical fuel treatment programs in the U.S. West and South. The first stage is a goal program that allocates subsidies according to fire...

How adoption rates, timing, and ceilings affect the value of ENSO-based climate forecasts.

Rubas, Debra J.; Mjelde, James W.; Love, H. Alan; … - 2008

An international wheat trade model incorporating climate variability is used to simulate different scenarios when wheat producers in the USA, Canada, and Australia adopt El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-based climate forecasts for use in production decisions. Adoption timing and rates are...

An Internet-based Spatial Decision Support System for Rangeland Watershed Management.

Miller, R.; Guertin, D.P.; Heilman, P. - 2003

The impact of livestock grazing on water quality, especially erosion and sedimentation, is an important concern in the southwestern United States. In response to Federal and State regulations, Best Management Practices (BMPs) for rangeland management are being developed and implemented in many...

Economics and climate applications: exploring the frontier.

Rubas, Debra J.; Hill, Harvey S.J.; Mjelde, James W. - 2006

The economics of information is a broad field covering all aspects of information including decision making. We briefly describe 4 methods used to model the decision-making process. This is not an exhaustive list of the methods used to value information, nor are differences between the methods...
