Is real options analysis fit for purpose in supporting climate adaptation planning and decision‐making?

Integrating Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation with Urban planning for a Livable city in Tehran

Climate change impacts are seen within growing numbers of cities in low- and middle-income countries, so there is growing interest in the adaptation and mitigation plans and programs put forward by city authorities. This paper aims to provide a better understanding of the constraints which cities face them in this subject by analyzing the case of Tehran. City has a commitment to decentralizatio...

Sustainable Planning of Supply Chains in Large-Scale Systems with Real Options Analysis

This paper presents a structure that empower designing supervisory groups to survey the estimation of real options in projects of enormous scale, incompletely standardized frameworks actualized a couple of times over the medium term. Specific options writing is done using a methodology of planning the design and making prior decisions regarding the arrangements of specific options, with a recre...

Transportation Planning, Climate Change, and Decisionmaking Under Uncertainty

ravel demand forecasting as widely practiced today deals inadequately with uncertainty. Methods currently used to forecast travel at the regional level simplify the world for which they forecast by relying heavily on point estimates. Forecasts are developed through the application of sequences of independent models in which the outputs from one become inputs to others. The current transportatio...

Shapes Fit For Purpose

This paper is about shape fitting to regions that segment an image and some applications that rely on the abstraction that offers. The novelty lies in three areas: (1) we fit a shape drawn from a selection of shape families, not just one class of shape, using a supervised classifier; (2) We use results from the classifier to match photographs and artwork of particular objects using a few qualit...
