We develop Integer Programming (IP) solutions for some special college admission problems arising from the Hungarian higher education admission scheme. We focus on four special features, namely the solution concept of stable score-limits, the presence of lower and common quotas, and paired...

This paper compares the impact of communication media on negotiating outcomes. Subjects negotiate an integrative case, either face-to-face or via e-mail. Average scores and integrativeness are not significantly different in the two media. However, the difference in scores between the two parties...

In diesem Beitrag stellen wir ein Konzept greifbarer, gegenständlicher Benutzungsschnittstellen vor. Es werdenÜbergänge zwischen dem Modellieren im Realen und dem Erstellen virtueller Modelle geschaffen. Synchronzum gegenständlichen Modell entsteht ein virtuelles Abbild, das für Simulation,...

Recent literature contains many examples of reputation systems which are constructed in anad hoc way or rely upon some heuristic which has been found to be useful. However,comparisons between these reputation systems has been impossible because there are noestablished methods of comparing...

Economic scheduling needs to be considered for Grid computing environment, because it gives an incentive for resource providers to supply their resources. Moreover, it enforces efficient use of resources, because the users have to pay for theiruse. Tendering is a suitable model for Grid...

Considers computer simulation as a method for studying the behaviour of business systems under a variety of assumed conditions for analysing the simultaneous interaction of many variables to produce valuable insights into problems. Looks at how simulations can help to provide answers to complex...

The capability indices are widely used by quality professionals as an estimate of process capability. Many process indices have been proposed and developed with C p , C pk and C pm among the most widely used. More recently, techniques have been developed to construct lower 95 percent confidence...
