This paper provides overviews of two major concepts and methodologies --Scenario Planning (SP) from Strategic Management and Real Options Analysis (ROA) from Finance. The paper draws on the KUU (Known, Unknown, and Unknowable) framework to demonstrate the commonalities and differences among these two approaches and calls for their synergistic use.

A countermeasure is any change to a system to reduce the probability it is successfully attacked. We propose a model based approach that selects countermeasures through multiple simulations of the behaviors of an ICT system and of intelligent attackers that implement sequences of attacks. The simulations return information on the attacker sequences and the goals they reach we use to compute the...

Electrical steels are important alloys widely used in electrical instruments. The magnetic properties and low core loss of grain oriented silicon steels are closely related to the sharpness of Goss texture ({110} ).The direction of is the softest direction for magnetism.  In this work, the microstructure and dependence of orientation density along the major texture fibers on the applied cold ro...

let $g$ be a simple graph with an orientation $sigma$‎, ‎which ‎assigns to each edge a direction so that $g^sigma$ becomes a‎ ‎directed graph‎. ‎$g$ is said to be the underlying graph of the‎ ‎directed graph $g^sigma$‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we define a weighted skew‎ ‎adjacency matrix with rand'c weight‎, ‎the skew randi'c matrix ${bf‎ ‎r_s}(g^sigma)$‎, ‎of $g^sigma$ as the real skew symmetric mat...

configuration of urban land use arrangement system, how to divide and how to use urban lands are advantages of environmental, economic, social, politic and rightly forces. with extension of urbanization and development of urban and regional planning, this concept is more widely hold a special place in the form of projects such as: land preparation, framework planning, general and comprehensive,...
