Evolutionary Multi-Criterion Optimization
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Evolutionary Multi-Criterion Optimization, EMO 2011, held in Ouro Preto, Brazil, in April 2011. The 42 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 83 submissions. The papers deal with fundamental questions of EMO theory, such as the development of algorithmically efficient tools for the evaluation of solution-set quality , the theoretical questions related to solution archiving and others. They report on the continuing effort in the development of algorithms, either for dealing with particular classes of problems or for new forms of processing the problem information. Almost one third of the papers is related to EMO applications in a diversity of fields. Eleven papers are devoted to promote the interaction with the related field of Multi-Criterion Decision Making (MCDM).
Fundamentos da Gestão da Produção e Operações
A Gestão da Produção e Operações (GPO) é fundamental para a melhoria dos processos produtivos de qualquer empresa, seja micro ou grande porte, industriais ou prestadoras de serviços. Aliada a crescente preocupação com sustentabilidade, os resultados de uma boa GPO serão capazes de impactar nos aspectos Social, Econômico e Ambiental (triple bottom line), evidenciando, assim, a importância do estudo de conceitos, técnicas e ferramentas que possam ajudar gestores da produção nos processos decisórios na organização. Desta forma, reunindo a visão dos principais autores no assunto, esta obra atualiza os conceitos básicos e introdutórios à Gestão da Produção e Operações d...
Operações de Armazenagem: Teoria e Prática
Ao ministrar a disciplina de logística, como o foco na temática de operações de armazenagem, a autora identificou dificuldades de encontrar, em poucas fontes, todos os tópicos que deveriam ser trabalhos. Além disso, os trabalhos existentes – em sua maioria – são estrangeiros, carecendo de algumas adaptações ao contexto nacional. Sendo assim, esta obra nasce do intenso trabalho realizado ao longo de 12 anos de estudos na temática, que culminou na primeira Semana da Gestão logística (SGLog), organizada pelo Grupo de pesquisa em Decisões Estratégicas em Produção e Logística (DEPLog) em 2021. Dividido em cinco capítulos, este livro apresenta – de maneira prática – os p...

Handbook of Group Decision and Negotiation
Publication of the Handbook of Group Decision and Negotiation marks a milestone in the evolution of the group decision and negotiation (GDN) eld. On this occasion, editors Colin Eden and Marc Kilgour asked me to write a brief history of the eld to provide background and context for the volume. They said that I am in a good position to do so: Actively involved in creating the GDN Section and serving as its chair; founding and leading the GDN journal, Group Decision and Negotiation as editor-in-chief, and the book series, “Advances in Group Decision and Negotiation” as editor; and serving as general chair of the GDN annual meetings. I accepted their invitation to write a brief history. In 1989 what is now the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS) established its Section on Group Decision and Negotiation. The journal Group Decision and Negotiation was founded in 1992, published by Springer in cooperation with INFORMS and the GDN Section. In 2003, as an ext- sion of the journal, the Springer book series, “Advances in Group Decision and Negotiation” was inaugurated.

Decision Sciences and Applications
Brazil, the United States, and the South American Subsystem
The United States has often acted as an empire in Latin America. Nevertheless, there has been an obvious dissimilarity between U.S. actions in South America and U.S. actions in the rest of Latin America, which is illustrated by the fact that the United States never sent troops to invade a South American country. While geographic distance and strategic considerations may have played a role, they provide at best incomplete explanations for the U.S.’s relative absence south of Panama. The fact that the United States has had a distinct pattern of interactions with South America is thus not captured by the typical concept of Latin America. In Brazil, the United States, and the South American Su...
Knowledge Solutions
This book is open access under a CC BY-NC 3.0 IGO license. This book comprehensively covers topics in knowledge management and competence in strategy development, management techniques, collaboration mechanisms, knowledge sharing and learning, as well as knowledge capture and storage. Presented in accessible “chunks,” it includes more than 120 topics that are essential to high-performance organizations. The extensive use of quotes by respected experts juxtaposed with relevant research to counterpoint or lend weight to key concepts; “cheat sheets” that simplify access and reference to individual articles; as well as the grouping of many of these topics under recurrent themes make this book unique. In addition, it provides scalable tried-and-tested tools, method and approaches for improved organizational effectiveness. The research included is particularly useful to knowledge workers engaged in executive leadership; research, analysis and advice; and corporate management and administration. It is a valuable resource for those working in the public, private and third sectors, both in industrialized and developing countries.
