Interactive learning environments are increasingly used to help people better deal with complex situations. One way to improve decision making effectiveness is to train systems thinking skills using interactive simulations in order to reduce the occurrence of “unintended side-effects” of interventions and catastrophic failures. We present a prototype training procedure intended for military officers...
Any significant decision making process involves dealing with many complexities including spatial interactions, temporal changes, interdependencies between system components and risk and uncertainties associated with decision choices. In this paper, we attempt to capture part of these complexities using an evolutionary game theoretic framework. At the heart of this framework is a game called InterDependent...
Adversarial decision making is aimed at finding strategies for dealing with an adversary who observes our decisions and tries to learn our behaviour pattern. This contribution extends a simple mathematical model with strategies that vary along time, and motivates the use of heuristic search procedures to address the problem of finding good strategies within this new search space. The evaluation of...
China is the biggest agricultural country in the world, and agriculture continues to be the main economic activity. Itpsilas remarkable that China has been able to properly feed over one-fifth of the worldpsilas population with only one-fifteenth of the worldpsilas arable land. Therefore, China's grain production has always been concerned by the whole world. In this paper, we present the model of...
Networked information systems have not been restricted to closed organizations environments for more than a decade. They are now crucial in supporting operations of infrastructure, ranging from power plants to air-control systems. These networked information systems, essentially forming the current Internet, are thus highly sensitive kinds of infrastructure where security plays a central role. However,...
As mobile communication business rapidly developing, the distribution system of communication building often faces pressure to upgrade capacity. According to the system's configuration features of the mobile communication building, the paper applies the dynamic programming methods to the charging process of the building's batteries. Then this method could excellently release a great part of capacity...
The following topics are dealt with: intelligent agents and ontologies; data mining, knowledge discovery and decision making; intelligent systems; Web technologies and Web services; virtual reality and games; image processing and image understanding techniques; adaptive control and automation; modelling, prediction and control; multi-agent systems and computational intelligence; agent systems, personal...
In the paper the approach for the simulation of counteraction between malefactors and defense systems in the Internet is considered. We try to model these antagonistic actors as software agents' teams. To simulate the teams' warfare it is proposed to use various computational models (from analytical and packet-based to virtual and testbeds). The main attention is drawn to the application of agent-oriented...
