The fact that the classical game-theoretic solution to the Ultimatum game is not a good model of actual human social behavior casts doubt on the validity of the classical solution concept of individual rationality. Satisficing game theory provides a framework within which complex social environments such as compromise, negotiation, and altruism can be explicitly modeled, and offers an alternati...

An interactive multiobjective fuzzy inventory problem with two resource constraints is presented in this paper. The cost parameters and index parameters, the storage space, the budgetary cost, and the objective and constraint goals are imprecise in nature. These parameters and objective goals are quantified by linear/nonlinear membership functions. A compromise solution is obtained by geometric...

In this paper, the extension of the Contiguous Partition Method (CPM ) from linear to planar arrays is described and assessed. By exploiting some properties of the solution space, the generation of compromise sum-difference patterns is obtained through an optimal excitation matching procedure based on a combinatorial method. The searching of the solution is carried out thanks to an efficient pa...

Trauma is the most common cause of mortality and morbidity in pediatric population. Caring for the injured child requires special knowledge, precise management, and scrupulous attention to details. All clinicians who are responsible for the care of a pediatric trauma patient, including pediatricians, pediatric emergency room clinicians, and trauma surgeons, must be familiar with every tenet of ...

Floating-point computations introduce several side channels. This paper describes the first solution that closes these side channels while preserving the precision of non-secure executions. Our solution exploits microarchitectural features of the x86 architecture along with novel compilation techniques to provide low overhead. Because of the details of x86 execution, the evaluation of floating-...

Abstract In this paper, a fuzzy PID with new structure is proposed to solve the load frequency control in interconnected power systems. in this study, a new structure and effective of the fuzzy PID-type Load frequency control (LFC) is proposed to solve the load frequency control in interconnected power systems. The main objective is to eliminate the deviations in the frequency of different area...

This paper considers a fuzzy programming approach for a multi-objective single machine scheduling problem when processing times of jobs are normal random variables. The probabilistic problem is converted into an equivalent deterministic programming problem. Then the fuzzy programming technique has been applied to obtain a compromise solution. A numerical example demonstrates the feasibility of ...

conclusions: the potent effect of corticosteroids in the rapid improvement of respiratory compromise associated with thyroid lymphoma represents an important clinical finding. this opens the possibility for the favorable response to corticosteroid therapy to be regarded as a possible preliminary diagnostic tool for thyroid lymphoma in acute respiratory distress patients in the absence of trache...

The resolution of semi-structured spatial problems often requires consensus building and compromise among stakeholders as they attempt to optimize their own set of criteria. The union of these sets form a criteria space that constrains the set of viable solutions that may be adopted by decision-makers. Knowledge about the criteria space, the solution space, and the relation between the two is n...
