In three samples of manager-reported decisions the Vroom±Jago model's predictions were supported. Decisions that more closely ®t the recommended decision method were rated as higher in e€ectiveness. The model was also found to account for more variance in decision e€ectiveness than the prior Vroom± Yetton model. It was also found that the Vroom±Jago model's greater precision in situational asse...

The Fuzzy Model for Management of Participation in Organizations (FMPO), pretends to be an evolution of the Normative Vroom-Yetton Model (NVYM). It adopts the same decision processes for group problems (AI, AII, CI, CII and GII), and several of the problem attributes defined by Vroom and Jago in the NVYM. However, there are important differences between NVYM and FMPO philosophies. While the for...

The complexity of network management is widely recognized as one of the biggest challenges facing the Internet today. Point solutions for particular problems further increase system complexity without providing general mechanisms that can be used to solve other problems. In this paper, we argue that many network-management problems stem from the same root cause—the need to maintain consistency ...

Mind in the Making and Vroom are partner initiatives that exemplify a unique "civic science" approach to "bringing developmental science into the world." Mind in the Making offers families and professionals working with children 0-8 access to developmental research, by engaging them in an active process of professional development and community outreach. Vroom is an outreach and communication i...

State of the art sensors within a single autonomous vehicle (AV) can produce video and LIDAR data at rates greater than 30 GB/hour. Unsurprisingly, even small AV research teams can accumulate tens of terabytes of sensor data from multiple trips and multiple vehicles. AV practitioners would like to extract information about specific locations or specific situations for further study, but are oft...

INTRODUCTION Orientation and mobility (O&M) specialists assess the functional vision and O&M skills of people with mobility problems, usually relating to low vision or blindness. There are numerous O&M assessment checklists but no measures that reduce qualitative assessment data to a single comparable score suitable for assessing any O&M client, of any age or ability, in any location. Functiona...
