Why Don't We Kiss!?
Decision theory renders the human decision maker the centre of attention: observing, describing how he makes decisions and leading him by the hand in an attempt to prevent him from taking `illogical' decisions. Literature and scientific publications on decision theory should be accessible and understandable to the average decision maker but this is almost never the case since these methods and models are too complex and/or require input from the decision maker which makes him feel uncomfortable. The result is that most decision makers turn their back on scientific approaches and prefer to use common sense and `rules of thumb' when facing decision problems. To breach the current wide gap between decision makers and academic researchers a clear idea as to what a human decision maker is and is not capable of is needed. Based on these elements less sophisticated models need to be build. In this book, a KISS-principle is proposed and several methods in the field of decision making by one decision maker or by group, resulting from close contacts with real world decision makers, are presented. Field cases are used to illustrate the methods and a lot of application fields are presented.
Intelligent Techniques in Engineering Management
This book presents recently developed intelligent techniques with applications and theory in the area of engineering management. The involved applications of intelligent techniques such as neural networks, fuzzy sets, Tabu search, genetic algorithms, etc. will be useful for engineering managers, postgraduate students, researchers, and lecturers. The book has been written considering the contents of a classical engineering management book but intelligent techniques are used for handling the engineering management problem areas. This comprehensive characteristics of the book makes it an excellent reference for the solution of complex problems of engineering management. The authors of the chapters are well-known researchers with their previous works in the area of engineering management.
Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis: State of the Art Surveys
Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis: State of the Art Surveys provides survey articles and references of the seminal or state-of-the-art research on MCDA. The material covered ranges from the foundations of MCDA, over various MCDA methodologies (outranking methods, multiattribute utility and value theories, non-classical approaches) to multiobjective mathematical programming, MCDA applications, and software. This vast amount of material is organized in 8 parts, with a total of 25 chapters. More than 2000 references are listed.
