Decision Modelling Tools for Utilities in the Deregulated Energy Market
This thesis examines the impact of the deregulation of the energy market on decision making and optimisation in utilities and demonstrates how decision support applications can solve specific encountered tasks in this context. The themes of the thesis are presented in different frameworks in order to clarify the complex decision making and optimisation environment where new sources of uncertain...
متن کاملDividing goods or bads under additive utilities
We compare the Egalitarian Equivalent and the Competitive Equilibrium with Equal Incomes rules to divide a bundle of goods (heirlooms) or a bundle of bads (chores). For goods the Competitive division fares better, as it is Resource Monotonic, and makes it harder to strategically misreport preferences. But for bads, the Competitive rule, unlike the Egalitarian one, is multivalued, harder to comp...
متن کاملCurrent Cost Accounting: Its Role in Regulated Utilities

In the UK, an accounting standard (SSAP 16, 1980) required supplementary CCA disclosures by large companies, but widespread noncompliance led to its being made non-mandatory in 1986 and completely withdrawn in 1988. The forces behind this failure were partly a decline in the rate of inflation, which made ...
متن کاملP-121: Which Developmental Stage is Suitable for Re-vitrification? Compact Stage Re-vitrification or Early Blastocyst Stage Re-vitrification
Background: The aim of this study was evaluation of developmental rate and Bax, Bcl-2 and ErbB4 genes expression following re-vitrification in compact and early blastocysts stages. Materials and Methods: 5-8 cell embryos were collected from female mature mice, 60-62 hours post hCG injection. The embryos were divided to five groups including: fresh, vitrified at 5-8 cells, vitrified at blastocys...
متن کاملPatient-reported utilities in advanced or metastatic melanoma, including analysis of utilities by time to death
BACKGROUND Health-related quality of life is often collected in clinical studies, and forms a cornerstone of economic evaluation. This study had two objectives, firstly to report and compare pre- and post-progression health state utilities in advanced melanoma when valued by different methods and secondly to explore the validity of progression-based health state utility modelling compared to mo...
