The telecoupling framework is an integrated concept that emphasises socioeconomic and environmental interactions between distant places. Viewed through the lens of the telecoupling framework, land use and food consumption are linked across local to global scales by decision-making agents and trade flows. Quantitatively modelling the dynamics of telecoupled systems like this could be achieved us...

In this paper we present a novel dynamic programming algorithm to synthesize an optimal decision tree from OR-decision tables, an extension of standard decision tables, which allow to choose between several alternative actions in the same rule. Experiments are reported, showing the computational time improvements over state of the art implementations of connected components labeling, using this...

Stochastic Programming brings together models of optimum resource allocation and models of randomness to create a robust decision making framework. The models of randomness with their finite, discrete realisations are called Scenario Generators. In a compendium report we have considered the modelling perspective of Scenario Generation and its integration within Stochastic Programming. In this p...

Purpose This paper addresses the complex problem of multi-stakeholder decisions in urban freight transport policy-making from a public authority perspective, by proposing a procedure based on a modelling approach to support stakeholder involvement in the decisionmaking process. The paper analyses the existing methods that can be used for participatory decision-support, with the intent of contex...

Decisions concerning prioritisation occur in different moments during software development and can involve different stakeholders. Our research objective is to develop prioritisation processes that meet stakeholders’ needs, and allow obtaining better quality decisions. In this paper we propose a structured approach to model decision-making in real setting with the purpose of eliciting from the ...

have resulted in a decision tool capable of handling imprecise information in complex decision situations. Some of the research has been directed towards developing decision analytical representation models and algorithms. The decision tool takes intervals as well as comparative relations as input, and incorporates a level of sensitivity analyses embedded into the representation instead of appl...

Original scientific paper In every training process it is of great importance to generate a quality program for athletic preparations. Systematic monitoring of an athlete’s sport performance does not end when the program is created. This study shows modelling of athlete’s training decision support. Based on created data model and with the application of ICT technologies, in this paper is presen...
