the aim of the current review wasto study the existing knowledge about decision-making and to identify and describe validated training tools.a comprehensive literature review was conducted by using the following keywords: decision-making, emergencies, disasters, crisis management, training, exercises, simulation, validated, real-time, command and control, communication, collaboration, and multi...

The purpose of this study is to develop portfolio optimization and assets allocation using our proposed models. The study is based on a non-parametric efficiency analysis tool, namely Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Conventional DEA models assume non-negative data for inputs and outputs. However, many of these data take the negative value, therefore we propose the MeanSharp-βRisk (MShβR) model...

Abstract The purpose of this study is to consider an international facility location problem under uncertainty and present an integrated model for strategic and operational planning. The paper offers two methodologies for the location selection decision. First the extended VIKOR method for decision making problem with interval numbers is presented as a methodology for strategic evaluation of po...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a common technique in measuring the relative efficiency of a set of decision making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. ‎‎Standard DEA models are ‎‎quite limited models‎, ‎in the sense that they do not consider a DMU ‎‎at different times‎. ‎To resolve this problem‎, ‎DEA models with dynamic ‎‎structures have been proposed‎.‎In a recent pape...

[naeini1] in this paper, a new method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fuzzy multi-objective linear programming problems (fmolpp) with fuzzy right hand side and fuzzy decision variables. due to the imprecise nature of available resources, determination of a definitive solution to the model seems impossible. therefore, the proposed model is designed in order to make fuzzy decisi...

When dealing with problems more than two objectives, sophisticated multi-objective optimization algorithms might be needed. Pareto optimization, which is based on the concept of dominated and non-dominated solutions, most widely utilized method when comparing solutions within a setting. However, in context where three or objectives are involved, effectiveness dominance approaches to drive conve...
