A fuzzy option prioritization technique is developed to efficiently model uncertain preferences of DMs in strategic conflicts as fuzzy preferences by using the decision makers’ (DMs’) fuzzy truth values of preference statements at feasible states within the framework of the Graph Model for Conflict Resolution. The preference statements of a DM express desirable combinations of options or course...

every year, for realizing the goals of five-year state civil development plan, a great part of state credits and financial resources are spent for investment in national projects, whilst most of national projects are performed with considerable delay. essential objectives of applying this research is design and explanaion of national projects managers’ competencies model, focusing on risk that ...

Many existing studies measure the effectiveness of test case prioritization techniques using the average performance on a set of test suites. However, in each regression test session, a realworld developer may only afford to apply one prioritization technique to one test suite to test a service once, even if this application results in an adverse scenario such that the actual performance in thi...

With the continuous evolution of software systems, test suites often grow very large. Rerunning all test cases may be impractical in regression testing under limited resources. Coverage-based test case prioritization techniques have been proposed to improve the effectiveness of regression testing. The original test suite often contains some test cases which are designed for exercising productio...

Zoonoses pose a significant burden of illness in North America. Zoonoses represent an additional threat to public health because the natural reservoirs are often animals, particularly wildlife, thus eluding control efforts such as quarantine, vaccination and social distancing. As there are limited resources available, it is necessary to prioritize diseases in order to allocate resources to thos...

OBJECTIVE The objective was to develop an economic prioritization model to assist those involved in the selection and prioritization of health technology assessment topics and commissioning of HTA projects. METHODS The model used decision analytic techniques to estimate the expected costs and benefits of the health care interventions that were the focus of the HTA question(s) considered by th...

this paper aims to use a priority framework based on decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (dematel) to help organizations build awareness of the critical influential factors affecting successful implementation of km. to identify critical influential factors, the authors studied and reviewed relevant literature from numerous fields of study associated with the essential issues of km. ...
