strategic environmental assessment can be viewed as a process to integrate the concept ofsustainable development into planning. in this context, sea can be regarded as a method that regulates theplanning process to a state of sustainable development. however, to reach that goal it is necessary to achieve full integration of planning and the sea process.therefore this paper considers the integra...

For grey stochastic multi-criteria decision-making problem with criterion value as extended grey number, the study proposes grey stochastic multi-criteria decision-making approach based on Hausdorff distance. First, it provides definition and operation rule of extended grey number stochastic variable and expectation, then obtains expectation decision matrix about grey number based on grey decis...

∗ Work reported in this paper is partly supported by China National High Technology Research Programme (863 Programme) under grant 2002AA116070. Abstract Based on our previous work on the formal specification language SLABS as well as a methodology and modelling language for modelling and specifying multi-agent systems, we further investigate how diagrammatic models of multi-agent systems can b...

to preserve wildlife habitats and populations, it is normal practice to select representative natural areas. the aim of this research is prioritization of candidate sites for environmental protection in mazandaran province. for this purpose, 26 forest cover types, habitats of 8 mammal species and important distribution areas for 4 groups of birds were used as input criteria. simulated annealing...

Nowadays, embedded systems need to support multiple applications simultaneously. It is not enough anymore to simply use a mobile phone to call somebody, but users also want to be able to simultaneously do other things, like listen to mp3’s or watch videos. This calls for a change in embedded system design which already takes the interaction between the multiple applications into account in the ...
