The control of unmanned combat system of systems (SoS) needs fusion centralized control, cluster distribution control and platform autonomous control, because of its distributed, networked and unmanned characteristics. Based on the hierarchical idea and the OODA control loop, this paper proposes a cognitive based multi-level command and control (C2) architecture about unmanned combat SoS (CB-MLC2A),...
Taking account of the actual production condition, for the sake of providing evidence for enterprise to select the optimal machining scheme, the paper proposes a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method which is based on decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) and feedback. Hierarchical evaluation system for machining schemes is established based on the analysis of the various factors...
A military decision maker is usually confronted with the decision of effective execution time for special actions under uncertain temporal constraints to achieve desired effects. The optimization problem mentioned above is referred to as Robust Temporal Constraint Optimization Problem (RTCOP). Temporal parameters are usually denoted by a wall-clock time in real-world. That is, temporal variables constrained...
The International bulk shipping industry is a perfect competition market so freight rates are volatile, and influenced by unpredictable factors. Better understanding the influences on freight rates can reduce the operational risk to shipping companies. In the paper, we investigate the influence of the Baltic Dry Index (BDI) on the bulk shipping industry from the demand prospective. The paper integrates...
Influence Diagrams (IDs) are not only used to display a graphical representation of the qualitative structure of models, but also to improve the communication among subject-matter experts, analyzers, and decisionmakers, by showing the frame of issue discussed from a high-level point of view. This thesis provided a curt overview of IDs and its evaluating, then introduced the extended Time-Sliced IDs...
Most researches on product designs focused on product functionality and utility. However, customers make the purchasing decision by considering not only the product functionalities but also the feeling of using the product. Thus, how to arouse consumers' emotion through product design has become a daily important issue. To resolve this problem, this research aims to develop a systematic emotional...
During the course of decision-making in case-based planning, users' experience and knowledge is very significant. This paper discusses how to incorporate them into PLANAUTHOR, a case-based planning system developed by us, before making a decision. Using templates, the authors give a new method, integrating case-based reasoning with decision tree algorithm, to make a multistep decision in case-based...
