Devlin G. (ed.) Advances in Decision Support Systems
Издательство InTech, 2010, -352 pp.

As the quote above states, be willing to make decisions. This book by In-Tech publishing helps the reader understand the power of informed decision making by covering a broad range of DSS (Decision Support Systems) applications in the fields of medical, environmental, transport and business. The expertise of the chapter writers spans an equally extensive spectrum of researchers from around the globe including universities in Canada, Mexico, Brazil and the United States, to institutes and universities in Italy, Germany, Poland, France, United Kingdom, Romania, Turkey and Ireland to as far east as Malaysia and Singapore and as far north as Finland.
Decision Support Systems are not a new technology but they have evolved and developed with the ever demanding necessity to analyse a large number of options for decision makers (DM) for specific situations, where there is an increasing level of uncertainty about the problem at hand and where there is a high impact relative to the correct decisions to be made. DSS’s offer decision makers a more stable solution to solving the semi-structured and unstructured problem. This is exactly what the reader will see in this book.
As I read through the chapters it is soon evident that this book provides a wide resource of applications as to how one can design, develop and implement a DSS in the areas such as environmental science and engineering looking at such applications from determining spatial risk zones of the Popocatepetl volcano in Mexico, to developing a web based DSS to manage the growing of wheat crops for a less intensive and more sustainable method of farming in Italy. Other chapters include an ecohydrological and morphological DSS used in the North Rhine Westphalia (NRW) in Germany to help adhere to the EU Water Framework Directive. An online DSS to look and predict the hydrodynamic and water quality in Lake Constance in the Bodensee region in Germany is also presented.
A medical DSS developed in Poland and the USA describes the advances in computer based medical systems to improve the initial patient diagnosis and subsequent therapy to eliminate potential human error. A similar application in Germany looks at the tools of artificial intelligence (A.I.) in medicine to again, assist in the decision making of symptoms, tests disease and eventual treatment options. Chapters 8 and 10 discuss other medical DSS’s. The transport sector is also addressed in Turkey by looking into the vehicle routing problem (VRP) conceing the pick-up and distribution of goods through a mathematical and algorithimic programming approach - Vehicle Routing Problems with Pick-Up and Delivery (VRPPD). A similar typed application was developed in Ireland for optimally determining articulated trucking routes based on distance and cost per kilometre. Decision support for truck route modelling (D-TRM). Chapter 12 looks at the ever popular location selection problem, but this time using a fuzzy logic function deployment method developed in both Iran and Canada.
Tools for the business sector include developing a virtual collaborative decision environment (VCDE) in chapter 14 to simulate decision making regarding a virtual company. In Malaysia, a new era of Active or Intelligent DSS (iDSS) assists managers with intelligent techniques for the operations of HR management.

The MIT Press, 2012. - 376 pages. In Meaningful Games, Robin Clark explains in an accessible manner the usefulness of game theory in thinking about a wide range of issues in linguistics. Clark argues that we use grammar strategically to signal our intended meanings: our choices as speaker are conditioned by what choices the hearer will make interpreting what we say. Game theory-according to which the outcome of a decision depends on the choices...

Princeton University. - June 2003 Abstract Article: We analyze decision-makers who make stochastic choices from sets of lotteries. A random choice rule associates with each decision problem a probability measure over the feasible choices. A random utility is a probability measure over von Neumann-Morgenstern utility functions. We show that a random choice rule maximizes some random utility if and only if it is mixture continuous, monotone (the pr...

Universit? de Gen?ve, 2000, -125 pp. Dynamic Games are mathematical models of the interaction between different agents who are controlling a dynamical system. Such situations occur in many instances like armed conflicts (e.g. duel between a bomber and a jet fighter), economic competition (e.g. investments in R&D for computer companies), parlor games (Chess, Bridge). These examples concern dynamical systems since the actions of the agents (al...
