This paper deals with the model of cooperative aerial reconnaissance. The goal of this high-level model is to explore the area of interest by a fleet of unmanned aerial systems optimally, which is (mostly) as fast as possible. The model has been implemented into the tactical decision support system to support commanders of the army of the Czech Republic in their decision making. The current paper does not present the model itself, but it enhances the original model by inserting a new parameter which is called angle delay coefficient. In the first part of the paper, the impact of the new parameter on the task of aerial reconnaissance is discussed. A series of experiments were proposed and conducted to verify the influence of the coefficient. The second part of the paper further improves the model by smoothing the routes of individual aerial systems; a new set of parameters are introduced.

Purpose of research. This paper is a description of the methodology for regional socio-economic system management based on the principles and concepts of management theory. Methods. A methodology for regional socio-economic system managing has been developed, taking into account the impact of National projects and the influence of the external environment. The methodology consists of six stages and fourteen techniques that allow describing the regional socio-economic system management in terms and tools of the management theory: the region itself is considered as an object of management experiencing a controlling action formed under some affecting influence. The methodology also assumes the formalization of a negative feedback system and a control system in the developed model of regional socio-economic system management. Results. The methodology of managing the regional socio-economic system can be used in the management process. Those who make management decisions at the regional level usually rely on their own professional skills, past experience, and intuition. However, the heuristic approach to regional management can be extended by the capabilities of the developed methodology, the practical implementation of which can be presented as a decision support system. This will allow regional governments to improve the effectiveness of management decisions based on monitoring the state of socio-economic systems. Conclusion. The methodology for managing the regional socio-economic system provides a complete management cycle: from the formalization of basic concepts to the description of the control and feedback system. The information implementation of the methodology is presented in the form of an automated product – a decision support system - that can be used in the formation of an automated workplace for civil servants.

The Impact

The digital development of the economy opens up new horizons for accounting. On the one hand, dissolution of accounting in corporate management systems takes place, on the other hand, the accounting functions for managing economic information remain relevant. This article uses the accounting modeling method. We offer a five-blocks accounting model of the decision support system. The model is formed by such blocks as the interface for collecting primary data on company transactions in the context of the formation of financial, managerial, strategic accounting accounts, ETL (extract, transform, loading) of processes for combining credentials from various sources within the framework of a structured work plan of accounts; predicted accounting iterations, having a synergistic, reorganization, reorganization, immunization, hedging and other areas; express audit of the management decision, which consists in assessing the impact of the management decision on the effectiveness of the company, which includes such elements as tax and legal expertise; SWOT analysis; reporting visualization tools that allow you to generate different types of reporting: financial, managerial, statistical, not just in tabular form, but using digital visualization methods; accounting and analytical indicators of managerial decisions, which can be described as a system of indicators reflecting the financial and economic situation of the enterprise under the influence of managerial decisions; the state of its financial stability, profitability, solvency, liquidity; the size of the property of the founders. The introduction and use of this model will allow generating relevant accounting information based on the needs of management, supporting the adoption of management decisions at a scientifically sound level that meets the criteria of business efficiency and protect the interests of owners.

AbstractMechanisation is a key input in modern agriculture, while it accounts for a large part of crop production costs, it can bring considerable farm benefits if well managed. Models for simulated machinery costs, may not replace actual cost measurements but the information obtained through them can replace a farm’s existing records, becoming more valuable to decision makers. MACHoice, a decision support system (DSS) presented in this paper, is a farm machinery cost estimator and break-even analyzer of alternatives for agricultural operations, developed using user-driven expectations and in close collaboration with agronomists and computer engineers. It integrates an innovative algorithm developed for projections of machinery costs under different rates of annual machine use and work capacity processing, which is crucial to decisions on break-even machinery alternatives. A case study based on the comparison of multiple alternatives for grape harvesting operations is presented to demonstrate the typical results that can be expected from MACHoice, and to identify its capabilities and limitations. This DSS offers an integrated and flexible analysis environment with a user-friendly graphical interface as well as a high level of automation of processing chains. The DSS-output consists of charts and tables, evidencing the differences related to costs and carbon emissions between the options inserted by the user for the different intensity of yearly work proceeded. MACHoice is an interactive web-based tool that can be accessed freely for non-commercial use by every known browser.

The Impact

Gold Coast Water is responsible for the management of the water, recycled water and wastewater assets of the City of the Gold Coast on Australia's east coast. Excess treated recycled water is released at the Gold Coast Seaway, a man-made channel connecting the Broadwater Estuary with the Pacific Ocean, on an outgoing tide in order for the recycled water to be dispersed before the tide changes and re-enters the Broadwater estuary. Rapid population growth has placed increasing demands on the city's recycled water release system and an investigation of the capacity of the Broadwater to assimilate a greater volume of recycled water over a longer release period was undertaken in 2007. As an outcome, Gold Coast Water was granted an extension of the existing release licence from 10.5 hours per day to 13.3 hours per day from the Coombabah wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). The Seaway SmartRelease Project has been designed to optimise the release of the recycled water from the Coombabah WWTP in order to minimise the impact to the receiving estuarine water quality and maximise the cost efficiency of pumping. In order achieve this; an optimisation study that involves intensive hydrodynamic and water quality monitoring, numerical modelling and a web-based decision support system is underway. An intensive monitoring campaign provided information on water levels, currents, winds, waves, nutrients and bacterial levels within the Broadwater. This data was then used to calibrate and verify numerical models using the MIKE by DHI suite of software. The Decision Support System will then collect continually measured data such as water levels, interact with the WWTP SCADA system, run the numerical models and provide the optimal time window to release the required amount of recycled water from the WWTP within the licence specifications.

Decision Making Behavior

This symposium addresses the characterization of human decision making within a complex environment for the purpose of developing improved decision support systems. All of the work presented in this symposium was conducted under a Navy research program entitled “Tactical Decision Making Under Stress” (TADMUS). The overall objective of the TADMUS program is to improve tactical decision making of anti-air warfare (AAW) crew members within the Aegis cruiser's combat information center (CIC) under conditions of stress and uncertainty. The unique aspect of this effort is that each presentation addresses decision making behavior, within a single domain, from a different perspective. The goal of each effort is to characterize some aspect of expert decision making performance within the AAW task environment, and to make recommendations for the resulting decision support system design based upon these characterizations. The result is a multi-faceted, human-centered approach to information organization and interface display design for a decision support system.

The Impact

Comprehension of the effect of energy generation technologies on the natural environment, human health and safety leads to a new and responsible approach to the choice and development of technologies. When it comes to preparing energy growth scenarios and handling issues related to the choice and assessment of technologies, environmental studies must be in a particular spotlight. One way to make quantitative and qualitative assessment of the effect of technologies on the environment is through a thorough integrated analysis, which, in addition to economic and technical solutions, also considers other aspects of concern to the public. A changed environment demands for systems of criteria which help consider its changes, the attitudes of the general public, public sentiments toward the effect of technologies, public values and community involvement in the process of important decision-making. The article examines how the dimension of values affects the analysis of the impact of environmental factors on the value of energy generation technologies. It presents a set of criteria for the assessment of energy generation technologies; the set, in addition to technological, economic and environmental criteria, includes criteria which reflect the values. The article also introduces the expert decision support system EGTAV-SPS, which helped assess the effect of environment on energy production technologies.

Consensus Decision

An experiment was conducted to examine how the use of a group decision support system (GDSS) influences the formation of group consensus. In a task requiring group members to jointly prioritize a list of items, 12 groups of eight members each were randomly assigned to one of three experimental conditions involving different levels of technological meeting support: (1) a group decision support system, (2) a manual counterpart to the structure imposed by the GDSS, and (3) no structured support. Measures of group consensus and perceived consensus, decision quality and perceived decision quality, and perceived opportunity to express views were made. The results revealed that the measures of consensus, decision quality and perceived decision quality, and perceived opportunity to express views were all similar across the three levels of technology investigated. Only perceived consensus was found to vary across conditions. The practical implications of these results are discussed.
