Abstract:
In multi-level decision making (DM) approaches, the final decision is reached by going through a finite number of DM levels. Usually, in each level, a raw decision is produced first and then a suitable decision fusion technique is employed to merge the lower level decisions with the raw decision in the construction of the final decision of the present level. The basic difficulty in these approaches is the determination of how the consecutive levels should interact with each other. In this thesis, two different multi-level DM models have been proposed. The main idea in the first model, &ldquo<b

Abstract:
This dissertation presents essays on the relationship between judgment and de- cision making and public policy, with a focus on gender diversity. The gender difference in career advancement is the likely result both of decisions made on the supply side (i.e. female and male job candidates) as well as decisions on the demand side (i.e. evaluators). These essays explore the behavioral foundations of decision making processes on both sides, and also make recommendations on how to use these behavioral insights to improve decisions, as well as increase gender diversity.

The thesis investigates the possibility of using simulation for understanding and improving the design of decision making in a real context. The approach is based on the problem of representing decision making behaviour in Discrete Event Simulation.

The KBI covers the key stages of the process of using simulation for understanding and improving the design of decision making.

Abstract:
Les systèmes complexes à longue durée de service sont des systèmes de grande taille qui ont généralement un comportement stochastique. Dans cette thèse, nous étudions, particulièrement, un type de ces systèmes : le système de vélos en libre-service. Le principe de fonctionnement de ce service de transports est de disposer des vélos dans diverses stations de la ville. Les usagers viennent prendre des vélos pour effectuer un trajet et puis les déposent dans des stations quelconques.Comme la durée d’exploitation de ces systèmes est longue, de nouveaux besoins (par exemple l’attractivité de statio

Abstract:
S tím, jak se neustále vyvíjejí nové technologie pro energeticky náročná průmyslová odvětví, stávající zařízení postupně zaostávají v efektivitě a produktivitě. Tvrdá konkurence na trhu a legislativa v oblasti životního prostředí nutí tato tradiční zařízení k ukončení provozu a k odstavení. Zlepšování procesu a projekty modernizace jsou zásadní v udržování provozních výkonů těchto zařízení. Současné přístupy pro zlepšování procesů jsou hlavně: integrace procesů, optimalizace procesů a intenzifikace procesů. Obecně se v těchto oblastech využívá matematické optimalizace, zkušeností řešitele a pr

Abstract:
Dans le contexte de l'industrie 4.0, les organisations sont constamment confrontées à la nécessité de continuer à améliorer leur performance de manière continue tout en rationalisant leurs ressources afin de rester compétitives sur un marché complexe. Pour cela, l'amélioration continue de la performance (CIP) est largement reconnue par les académiciens et les praticiens comme une approche clé. Néanmoins, des études récentes mettent en évidence un taux élevé d'échecs de mise en œuvre, ce qui soulève des inquiétudes concernant la nécessité de clarifier le processus de CIP, et plus particulièreme

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) holds a unique position within the Department of Defense (DoD) by being the only agency that runs a self- sustaining operation. As such, its operations run closely to that of the private sector, in particular the grocery industry. DeCA currently utilizes a standardized federal reporting format for its three principal statements, per Office of Management and Budget guidelines. The Statement of Cash Flows is the only statement of the three whose format is conducive to providing beneficial information t

Abstract:
Current global efforts for energy conservation and optimization are focused on improvements in energy supply and production systems, and on encouraging the adoption of energy-efficient devices and equipment. However, systematic assessments of economic and technical implications when adopting energy-efficient alternative systems in buildings have not yet been explored thoroughly. The uncertainty about the consequences of investing in alternative energy-efficient systems has led to a prolonged utilization of obsolete building systems (underperforming HVAC systems, inefficient lighting systems, b

Abstract:
Network screening and countermeasure selection are two crucial steps in the highway improvement process. In network screening, potential improvement locations are ranked and prioritized based on a specific method with a set of criteria. The most common practice by transportation agencies has been to use a simple scoring method, which, in general, weighs and scores each criterion and then ranks the locations based on their relative overall scoring. The method does not deal well with criteria that are qualitative in nature, nor does it account for the impacts of correlation among the criteria. T
