Groundwater is one of the most important water resources especially for irrigation in the east of Iran. So, it is important to note its water quality variation for deciding to manage it. To this end, the study were done to zone Birjand plain located at latitude between 32˚ 30’-33˚ 00’ N and longitude between 58˚ 45’-59˚ 41’ E. In order to achieve this goal, the required layers, Sodium adsorptio...

work system safety is a function of many factors, besides its dynamic and complex structure. there may be relations and dependencies among the safety factors. therefore, work system safety should be analyzed in a holistic manner. in this study, the faulty behavior risk (fbr) which is significant in work system safety is tried to be determined through analytical network process (anp) which is an...

ÐIn this paper, we present and discuss our experience in the task of probability elicitation from experts for the purpose of belief network construction. In our study, we applied four techniques. Three of these techniques are available from the literature, whereas the fourth one is a technique that we developed by adapting a method for the assessment of preferences to the task of probability el...

The paper proposes the combination of three traditional modelling methods (analytical, continuous and discrete-event) into a unique hybrid two-level modelling approach to address software process simulation modelling issues. At the higher abstraction level, the process is modelled by a discrete-event queuing network, which represents the component activities (i.e. service stations), their inter...

the purpose of this research to prioritize the factors affecting administrative corruption in government organizations using analytic network process until the arrival of prioritized dimensions to quality function deployment model, provide appropriate strategies for solving this basic organizational problem.this study is a descriptive survey research and located into the category of applied res...
