Contending with uncertainty in conservation management decisions
Efficient conservation management is particularly important because current spending is estimated to be insufficient to conserve the world's biodiversity. However, efficient management is confounded by uncertainty that pervades conservation management decisions. Uncertainties exist in objectives, dynamics of systems, the set of management options available, the influence of these management opt...
متن کاملDistributed Scrum for Large-Scale and Mission-Critical Projects
Distributed software development (DSD) is becoming popular due to the potential of delivering highquality software products in a timely and economical manner. Recently, practitioners started to apply agile software development methods to their DSD environment. However, there are not many empirical researches that have reported whether the agile methods are really viable for distributed software...
متن کاملA Fuzzy Decision-Making Methodology for Risk Response Planning in Large-Scale Projects
Risk response planning is one of the main phases in the project risk management and has major impacts on the success of a large-scale project. Since projects are unique, and risks are dynamic through the life of the projects, it is necessary to formulate responses of the important risks. The conventional approaches tend to be less effective in dealing with the impreciseness of risk response p...
متن کاملHolistic Evaluation of Real-Time Safety-Critical Large-Scale Networks
The growing importance of real-time computing in numerous applications poses problems for network architectures. This research proposes a model for evaluating safety-critical real-time Wide Area Networks (WANs), using assessment and performance requirements for highly reliably and dependable real-time networks, incorporating both human and technical performance criteria.
متن کاملPredictability and Uncertainty in Large-Scale Simulations
In many simulations in fluid and solid mechanics but also in molecular simulations there are many sources of uncertainty, e.g. associated with boundary conditions, material properties or equations of state and constitutive laws. These uncertainties may contribute to large errors in the simulation, typically much larger than the spatio-temporal discretization errors, leading to erroneous dynamic...
