For a long time uncertainty has been considered synonymous with random, stochastic, statistic, or probabilistic. Since the early sixties views on uncertainty have become more heterogeneous. In the past forty years numerous tools that model uncertainty, above and beyond statistics, have been proposed by several engineers and scientists. The tool/method to model uncertainty in a specific context should really be chosen by considering the features of the phenomenon under consideration, not independent of what is known about the system and what causes uncertainty. In this fascinating overview of the field, the authors provide broad coverage of uncertainty analysis/modeling and its application. Applied Research in Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis presents the perspectives of various researchers and practitioners on uncertainty analysis and modeling outside their own fields and domain expertise. Rather than focusing explicitly on theory, the authors use real-world examples to demonstrate the strength of the chosen methodology. Applied Research in Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis concentrates on general aspects of uncertainty, modeling, and methods, and focuses on various applications, included Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Structural Engineering, and Transportation Engineering Nota de contenido: Philosophical and Theoretical Bases for Analyzing and Modeling Uncertainty and Ignorance -- A Self-Organizing Neural Network by Dynamic and Spatial Changing Weights -- Simulation of Fuzzy Systems I -- Simulation Of Fuzzy Systems II -- Event-Related Potential Noise Reduction Using the Hidden Markov Tree Model -- Change Detection in Image Sequence Based on Markov Random Field and Mean Field Theory -- Analysis of Multi-Channel Subdural EEG by Recurrent Neural Networks -- Multicriteria Optimization Under Parametric Uncertainty -- Design of Neural Networks for Pavement Rutting -- Neural Networks for Residential Infrastructure Management -- Evacuation Simulation in Underground Mall by Artificial Life Technology -- Epistemic Uncertainty and the Management of High Risk Exposures -- Experiment with a Hierarchical Text Categorization Method on WIPO Patent Collections -- Study of Transportation and Uncertainty -- Multi Agent Systems Approach to Parking Facilities Management -- Modeling Transportation Choice Through Utility-Based Multi-Layer Feedforward Networks -- Heterogeneity in Commuter Departure Time Decision: a Prospect Theoretic Approach -- Importance of Fuzzy Sets Definitions for Fuzzy Signal Controllers -- Reliability Evaluation of Realistic Structures Using FEM -- Simulation in Risk-Based Codified Engineering Design -- System Identification at Local Level under Uncertainty -- Uncertainty Modeling of Chloride Contamination and Corrosion of Concrete Bridges -- Redundancy Analysis of Structural Systems En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/b101807 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=35070 Applied Research in Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Nii O.

Organización de empresas Resumen: This edited volume highlights recent research advances in humanitarian relief logistics. The contributed chapters span the spectrum of key issues and activities from preparedness to mitigation operations (response), planning and execution. The volume also presents state-of-the-art methods and systems through current case studies. Significant issues in planning and execution of humanitarian relief logistics discussed in this volume include the following: • Approaches that tackle realistic relief distribution networks. In addition to large-scale computing issues, heuristics may handle the complexity and particularities of humanitarian supply chains • Methods that integrate real-time information while effectively coping with time pressure and uncertainty, both of which are inherent to a disaster scene • Judicious recourse strategies that allow a quick and effective restoration of pre-planned solutions whenever an unpredictable event occurs • Coordination of multiple parties that are often involved in managing a disaster, including NGOs, local, state and federal agencies. This volume provides robust evidence that research in humanitarian logistics may lead to substantial improvements in effectiveness and efficiency of disaster relief operations. This is quite encouraging, since the unique characteristics of disaster scenes provide significant opportunities for researchers to investigate novel approaches contributing to logistics research while offering a significant service to society Nota de contenido: A Decision Support System for Humanitarian Network Design and Distribution Operations -- Analytical Models for Estimating Waiting Times at a Disaster Relief Center -- Multiple Location and Routing Models in Humanitarian Logistics -- Preparedness Measures for Emergency and Disaster Response -- Military Logistics Planning in Humanitarian Relief Operations -- A Procurement Auctions-Based Framework for Coordinating Platforms in Humanitarian Logistics -- A Fuzzy Multicriteria Methodology to Manage Priorities and Resource Assignment in Critical Situations -- Logistics for Decision Support: An Application in Cases of Natural Disasters -- A Multi-agent Based Framework for Vehicle Routing in Relief Delivery Systems -- Modeling Facility Locations for Relief Logistics in Indonesia -- Humanitarian Logistics in the Great Tohoku Disasters 2011 En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-7007-6 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=36450 Humanitarian and Relief Logistics : Research Issues, Case Studies and Future Trends [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Vasileios Zeimpekis ; Soumia Ichoua ; Ioannis Minis . - New York, NY : Springer New York : Imprint: Springer, 2013 . - XIV, 220 p : online resource. - (Operations Research/Computer Science Interfaces Series, ISSN 1387-666X; 54) .
