The goal of this project is to automate software design by accumulating knowledge and experience of human designers. This paper presents the CREATOR2, an experimental expert system for automatic software design, that simulates the behavior of human expert designers by applying the design process knowledge. In CREATOR2 the focus is on reproducing human cognitive processes and automating software...

Expert Judgement (EJ) is used extensively during the generation of cost estimates. Cost estimators have to make numerous assumptions and judgements about what they think a new product will cost. However, the use of EJ is often frowned upon, not well accepted or understood by non-cost estimators within a concurrent engineering environment. Computerised cost models, in many ways, have reduced the...

Formerly instructional systems design models have incorporated prescriptive linear phases of analysis, design and development, implementation and evaluation. While early adopters worked within these frameworks to develop online courseware, now in many institutions online development has been have centralised within both support units and online learning management systems. This paper uses the d...

suitable supplier selection is the most important factor in supplier chain management; so that correct decisions in this phase, caused to reduce costs, make permanent relationship with suppliers and strong competitive strategy in market. in this paper, by reviewing the past articles, important related criteria found and then weighting of criteria and evaluation of alternatives were done with fu...
