A Pattern Approach to Modeling the Provider Selection Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article introduces the notion of agreement patterns, which provide a framework for modelling reusable problem solution descriptions for agreement fulfilment. In particular, the Provider Selection pattern has been identified for modelling the common problem of selecting a provider by a service consumer. The article presents the pattern structure as well as the reusable domain model and cognitive structures. Agreement patterns aim at providing reusable patterns useful for developers in multidisciplinary areas, such as Agent Technology and Service Oriented Computing.

The main purpose of this paper is to present a fuzzy multi-criteria decision making (FMADM) model for appropriate location selection of a health center. Therefore, we identify sixteen criteria and sub-criteria for selecting a health center location. These criteria and sub-criteria have been obtained from literature reviews and practical interviews. This paper proposes a method which combines th...

متن کاملA robust multi-objective global supplier selection model under currency fluctuation and price discount
Robust supplier selection problem, in a scenario-based approach has been proposed, when the demand and exchange rates are subject to uncertainties. First, a deterministic multi-objective mixed integer linear programming is developed; then, the robust counterpart of the proposed mixed integer linear programming is presented using the recent extension in robust optimization theory. We discuss dec...
