491 Abstract— In this paper, we offer a new strategic portfolio model for national IT R&D project selection in Korea. A risk and return (R-R) portfolio model was developed using an objectively quantified index on the two axes of risk and return, in order to select a strategic project and allocate resources in compliance with a national IT R&D strategy. We strategize using the R-R portfolio mode...

Motivation is one of the factors that influence the productivity of people. Engineers play a vital role in the management of projects in a construction organisation. The success of these projects relies heavily on their active involvement and effective performance. Hence it is important to assess the impact of motivation on the performance of these engineers. The broad objective of this work is...

This article describes an evaluation of six different methods for prioritizing software requirements. Based on the quality requirements for a telephony system, the authors individually used all six methods on separate occasions to prioritize the requirements. The methods were then characterized according to a number of criteria from a user’s perspective. We found the analytic hierarchy process ...

Cloud Computing has changed the strategy of the way of providing different services to business and government agent as well as to sole users. Cloud Computing provides scalable and on demand services to users irrespective of their physical area. But this computing technology has many challenges. One of them is on demand resource allocation. In this paper a resource allocation method is proposed...

using the mathematic techniques such as fuzzy approach has useful outcomes for production planning in different sources. in this paper lgp1 was used to model the objectives such as: avoidance of shortage or surplus of demand, access to maximum of income, using the normal capacity of production and organizing the inventory of warehouse, within the framework of goal constraints like balancing be...

Abstract—Due to the economic downturn and the deterioration of the living environment, the development of residential buildings as high energy consuming building is gradually changing from “extensive” to green building in China. So, the evaluation system of green building is continuously improved, but the current evaluation work has the following problems: (1) There are differences in the cost ...

SMEs have to collaborate with other enterprises in a virtual organisation (VO) forms to cope with an increasingly dynamic and competitive environment. Despite the increased interest in the area of collaboration information is still lacking about the risk sources of VO. This paper aims to reinforce the proposal for an integrated methodology to classify, manage and assess network level risk sourc...

The third-party logistics can simplify the distribution sectors, transport reasonably, use and allocate rationally the existing resources, and avoid the problems of funds us...

There has been a dramatic growth of research concerned about the ubiquitous learning (u-learning) in recent years. It has an urgent need that U-learning systems have to be continuously evaluated and improved for ensuring the system reliability. However, there are only few or none of existent u-learning system evaluation researches. Therefore, this study develops a u-learning evaluation method s...

To solve the uncertainty and complexity problems in hazardous chemical storage risk assessment, this paper constructs the evaluation index system and proposed the risk assessment model based on AHP-fuzzy comprehensive evaluation approach, which organically integrate the quantitative and the objectively of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the inclusive advantage of fuzzy comprehensive ev...
