various traditional and industrial coke making techniques were discussed based on their limitations and production capacities, and the criteria such as the quality and size of coke production, amount of coke crumb, amount of investment, amount of operational costs, labor force and mechanization. in this work, the rankings of various traditional and industrial coke making techniques were carried...

With the increasing globalization of economy and consequent increasing in the inter and intra organizational competitiveness, the role of groups in organizations and businesses achieve greater significance. The work, as well as the responsibility involved to reach a decision, is distributed among group members, which may be distributed geographically and may cooperate in an asynchronous way. Th...

One of the challenging issues in homeland security area is the early detection and successful processing of potential terrorist threats, which demands effective team collaboration. In this research we investigate the way of incorporating naturalistic decision making models for supporting distributed team decision making. By extending Klein’s Recognition-Primed Decision model, we propose a Colla...

There are several ways of building complex distributed software systems, for example in the form of software agents. But regardless of the form, there are some common problems having to do with specification contra execution. One of the problems is the inherent dynamics in the environment many systems are exposed to. The properties of the environment are not known with any precision at the time...

INTRODUCTION Decision making in the health care system - specifically with regard to diagnostic imaging investigations - occurs at multiple levels. Professional role players from various backgrounds are involved in making these decisions, from the point of referral to the outcomes of the imaging investigation. The aim of this study was to map the decision-making processes and pathways involved ...
