Evaluating approaches to mapping burn probabilities for a quantitative wildland fire risk analysis framework. Project Title: Evaluating approaches to mapping burn probabilities for a quantitative wildland fire risk analysis framework. ABSTRACT This final report summarizes a collaboration that brought together experts in burn probability (BP) modeling and wildland fire risk analysis to compare a...

ICT outsourcing is one of the successful strategies implemented to reduce organization’s ICT operational cost and to give more priority to their core business rather to ICT operational activities. However, it causes significant risks to the success of the outsourcing ventures especially Information Security Risk (ISR). Therefore, analysis of ISR factors level for ICT Outsourcing project is requ...

the purpose of this article is to evaluate the pivotal irrigated wheat project by cost-benefit analysis method in order to find the internal rate of return and the ratio of present value of net benefits to costs.to this end, we have estimated the economic surplus created due to shift in wheat supply , as result ofimplementation ofthe project and have calculated the above criteria. we found that...

Risk identification, impact assessment, and response planning constitute three building blocks of project risk management. Correspondingly, three types of interactions could be envisioned between risks, between impacts of several risks on a portfolio component, and between several responses. While the interdependency of risks is a well-recognized issue, the other two types of interactions remai...

The aim of this paper is to propose new mining techniques by which we can study the impact of different risk management techniques and different software risk factors on software analysis development projects. The new mining technique uses the fuzzy multiple regression analysis techniques with fuzzy concepts to manage the software risks in a software project and mitigating risk with software pr...

During the early “conceptual” phase of a project life-cycle – considering for instance a competitive bidding process when a request for bidding has been received by an engineering & contracting company and the decision to bid has been made – the main objective of the proposal manager is to achieve an effective trade-off between the bid competitive value on the side of the client expectations an...

being observed frequently that projects cannot achieve to their plan duration and their budget. utilizing retrospective method is one of the reasons for this problem. in this research two method, earned duration management and risk management, has been used to remove the gap of the plan and the reality; this enable the project to utilize both high accuracy of the first method and prophecy of th...

uncertainties in industrial environments can cause considerable complexities, during the implementation and management of projects. so, performing a risk management model in such environments has become inevitable. in such circumstances, many risk management models have been introduced in literature, which majorities of them are general, while some of them are developed to be applied to specifi...

an alternative for decreasing risk for knowledge workers is effective & optimized work break.major performance criteria in r&d; based organization is successful projects. selection of opproporiate members can be a most effect on the projects achievement. but as the selection of r&d; special members lead to decrease of risk, repeatative participation of this people in the same project lead to kn...

Risk is not always avoidable, but it is controllable. The aim of this paper is to present new techniques which use the stepwise regression analysis to model and evaluate the risks in planning software development and reducing risk with software process improvement. Top ten software risk factors in planning software development phase and thirty control factors were presented to respondents. This...
