enterprise architecture (ea) is a discipline for understanding, engineering, and managing different components of an enterprise and their interrelationships. moreover, because the risk and impact of ea are pervasive across the enterprise, it is critical to perform an architecture assessment before making any decision about choosing a scenario. this paper provides an approach based on fuzzy anal...

Cardiac surgery is an important medical treatment for coronary vessel patients. Different models have been introduced to determine the risk factors related to side effects of this operation. The goal of this research is to study EuroSCORE (European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation) as a useful method for predicting the risk of mortality after cardiac surgery, and to introduce a new ...

-Risk management is an important and crucial matter for project manager as the success of any project very much depends on the associated risks and uncertainties in the project. A systematic risk management process can be divided into risk classification, risk identification, risk analysis and risk response. Risk analysis is the second stage in the Project risk management (PRM) where risks whic...

The need for effective spatial knowledge discovery in risk assessment increases as the amount of the spatial data which is handled and analyzed for risk assessment has enlarged. Such large variety of spatial data should be integrated from multiple sources presenting different types, semantics, and level of details weather geometrically, temporally, or thematically. Therefore, spatial knowledge ...

With more and more reservoirs have been and are being built all over the world, reservoir-induced earthquake has received a great deal of attention from geoscientists mainly because of its potential to damage constructions and to cause human losses. Based on the previous researches on the environmental conditions of reservoir-induced earthquake, a criteria hierarchy model has been constructed. ...

As wind energy is one of the most important renewable energy sources over the globe, need for increasing safety for this type of energy is gaining importance. Although this sector is not suffering an excessive amount of fatal injury accidents, there are many aspects open for improvements in occupational health and safety management. The construction and operation processes of wind turbines incl...

This paper discusses some models of Imprecise Probability Theory obtained by propagating uncertainty in risk analysis when some input parameters are stochastic and perfectly observable, while others are either random or deterministic, but the information about them is partial and is represented by possibility distributions. Our knowledge about the probability of events pertaining to the output ...

The management of conflicts that emerge during new service development (NSD) has escaped the attention of scholars. Yet differing conflict management styles (CMS) of team members and dynamics within the team create a complex managerial challenge. Additionally, the broader literature on conflict resolution shows contradictory findings preventing a clear roadmap for practitioner use when such con...
