Modelling Human Behaviour at Work using Fuzzy Logic: The Challenge of Work Teams Configuration
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the first steps in the planning of a new engineering project in industry is its partition into subtasks and the configuration of a work team to execute it. This decision making process is typically performed by a project manager based on his/her past experience and the available (though frequently scarce, uncertain and dynamic) information about the cognitive and personal characteristics of the available team members. This paper presents our first results in the development of a knowledge-based tool that aims to help project managers in their decisionmaking process. Software agents are used to model social human behaviour at work, where human characteristics are represented by a set of fuzzy values, and fuzzy rules model the interaction between the agents to generate the possible performance of a work team. As a first validation step, a comparison of the results predicted by our model with the performance of an engineering team in a real industrial project is made.

Risk Analysis of Operating Room Using the Fuzzy Bayesian Network Model
To enhance Patient’s safety, we need effective methods for risk management. This work aims to propose an integrated approach to risk management for a hospital system. To improve patient’s safety, we should develop flexible methods where different aspects of risk and type of information are taken into consideration. This paper proposes a fuzzy Bayesian network to model and analyze risk in the op...
متن کاملThe Study of Relationship Between Work Teams and Favoring Knowledge Management(Case: Bank Keshavarzi)
Knowledge management is a process that has been recently generated as an activity which is very important in the dynamic environment, and in the competitive scene. We believe that KM is a process which its organizational knowledge is created from the individual knowledge of the members of the organization. The relevant studies have indicated that organizing based on work teams could be consider...

The tool wear is an unavoidable phenomenon when using coated carbide tools during hard turning of hardened steels. This work focuses on the prediction of tool wear using regression analysis and artificial neural network (ANN).The work piece taken into consideration is AISI4140 steel hardened to 47 HRC. The models are developed from the results of experiments, which are carried out based on De...
متن کاملHuman Attributes in the Modelling of Work Teams
This paper presents a summary of relevant research findings that have been used as the theoretical background in the design of an agent-based model to simulate the human behaviour within work teams (the TEAKS model). It underlines some of the main trends in the modelling of human behaviour in teams, and the rationale for selecting the attributes to represent real team candidates as software age...
