Formal methods, including model checking, is powerful but can be costly, in terms of memory, time, and modeling effort. Difficult problems, similar to the verification problem addressed by model checking, have been shown to exhibit a phase transition, suggesting that an easy range of problem instances might be solved much faster and with much less memory using a new type of model checker based ...

Simulation models of economic, financial and business risk factors are widely used to assess risk exposures and support decisions. Extensive literature on scenario generation methods aims at describing some underlying stochastic processes with the least number of scenarios to overcome the “curse of dimensionality”. There is, however, an important issue that is usually overlooked when one depart...

This paper introduces the use of dynamic stochastic optimisation pension fund management. The design of such products involves econometric modelling, economic scenario generation, generic methods of solving optimization problems and modelling of required risk tolerances. In nearly all the historical backtests using data over roughly the past decade the system described (with transactions costs ...

The paper describes a system, in JAVA, for written and visual scenario generation to collect speech corpora in the framework of a Tourism Information System. Methods and experimental results are also presented for evaluating the degree of understanding of the proposed scenarios. The corpus generated from visual scenarios appears to be much richer than the one generated from textual descriptions.

This paper presents an assessment of land use changes and their impacts on the ecosystem in the Montado, a traditional agricultural landscape of Portugal in response to global environmental change. The assessment uses an agentbased model (ABM) of the adaptive decisions of farmers to simulate the influence on future land use patterns of socio-economic attributes such as social relationships and ...

This paper introduces a constrained optimization method which uses procedural personas to evaluate the playability and quality of evolved dungeon levels. Procedural personas represent archetypical player behaviors, and their controllers have been evolved to maximize a specific utility which drives their decisions. A “baseline” persona evaluates whether a level is playable by testing if it can s...

For this study, we constructed the following three case scenarios based on the Taiwanese government's energy policy: a normal scenario, the 2008 “Sustainable Energy Policy Convention” scenario, and the 2011 “New Energy Policy” scenario. We then employed a long-term Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) optimization model to compare the three case scenarios' energy mix for power generation for the...
