We are developing an Internet platform called MediaTeam that provides a marketplace connecting media content consumers to communities of media content creators. The platform is enabled by our method for automated assembly of virtual project teams. Media creators use the automated team assembler to quickly identify and team with collaborators. The team assembly platform factors in how the skills...

Technology centered organizations must be able to identify promising new products or process improvements at an early stage so that the necessary resources can be allocated to those activities. It is essential to invest in targeted research and development (R and D) projects as opposed to a wide range of ideas so that resources can be focused on successful outcomes. The selection of the most ap...

much research hasn’t been done in the area of project selection in the public sector. in this paper, we tried to choose projects in the public sector, and a linear programming model is presented. in an effort to build the model, the decision criteria were identified using the delphi method and then the criteria were reviewed at conceptual combining. the model was constructed in a linear, goal a...

this paper presents a prediction model based on a new neuro-fuzzy algorithm for estimating time in construction projects. the output of the proposed prediction model, which is employed based on a locally linear neuro-fuzzy (llnf) model, is useful for assessing a project status at different time horizons. being trained by a locally linear model tree (lolimot) learning algorithm, the model is int...
