The article studies the problem of control of firefighting at the seaports under uncertainty, which consists of localization and extinguishing fire with minimum effort and resources within shortest time. The author has developed a model of fire fighting control at the seaports under conditions of uncertainty, the main elements of which are: a model of defining the fire area; a model of selecting the fire rank; an analytical model for evaluating resources sufficiency; an analytical model for resources selection; a neuro-fuzzy model for choosing optimal actions; an evaluation model of successful implementation of the plan; a model for implementation of neuro-fuzzy models. In comparison with existing models, distinctive features of the developed model are the following: application of combined membership functions that allow to perform more accurate approximation of input parameters values; implementation of the block of eliminating dynamic errors. This article assesses the model adequacy and confirms it through model verification and validation. The author has developed information and analytical management support system for fire fighting at seaports which can be used by the chief fire-fighters under uncertainty and is based on the developed model. The developed software is designed to raise the firefighters’ efficiency due to the increase of accuracy of managerial decisions taken by the chief firefighters and reduction of time necessary for decision making.

Introduction. The article deals with improvement of the differential model of training for decision-making when setting standards of training with fire-fighting equipment. Using a differential training model, the study of the setting training standards with new models of technology and fire-technical equipment was carried out. Goals and objectives. The aim of the study is to improve the training model for calculating the training standards and predicting the number of approaches to ensure the successful development of the training in the framework of the management of professional training of firefighters. Methods. The process of obtaining new scientific results can be divided into three stages. At the first stage, when improving the training model, methods for solving differential equations with separable variables were used. At the second stage of the study, the Student's criterion and elements of probability theory were used in the development of training standards with fire-fighting equipment. At the third stage, the Pearson determination criterion was used in the process of assessing the adequacy of the results. Results and discussion. The authors obtained a partial analytical solution of the general differential training model for the case of linear dependence of the training function on the results of the exercise. A method for calculating standards for exercises with fire-fighting equipment based on truncated data is proposed and the results of calculating standards are compared with the generally accepted method for setting standards for exercises with fire-fighting equipment. A method has been developed for determining the values of the function of training based on the results of repeated exercises, taking into account the training factor. Conclusions. Thus, the proposed modification of the training model consists in establishing a linear dependence of the results of the exercises on the number of approaches, which allows planning actions for the successful implementation of exercises with fire-fighting equipment. The directions of further research in terms of the development of the results obtained in the management of professional training of personnel in fire departments have been determined. Keywords: firefighter training management, fire-fighting equipment, training standards, differential training model, decision-making

A high uncertainty and fuzziness of information in the systems of development and organizations production of technological innovations are forming the need to use adequate management decision-making tools. A key condition for decisions in such systems is, as a rule, the criterion of efficiency. The paper presents the results of the numerical implementation of a methodological approach to evaluating the effectiveness of technological innovations from the standpoint of non-stochastic uncertainty. The approach is based on fuzzy calculations and fuzzy modeling. This approach is aimed at integrating deterministic, stochastic and expert knowledge of the system; it provides an expanded view of the content of the “effectiveness” category itself and the composition of relevant factors, allows you to take into account the restrictions and preferences of decision makers relevant to the system under study. The considered approach is adapted to the specifics of managing technological innovation in an industrial enterprise. The results of the development and numerical implementation of a fuzzy model for evaluating the effectiveness of technological innovations have led to the conclusion that the approach used expands (complements) the composition of the existing methods in this field of knowledge; the numerical value of the efficiency (W) obtained in the fuzzy model can be considered as an additional analytical indicator of information support of the management decision-making process; the significance of this indicator is due to the fact that the indicator W reveals strategically significant prerequisites and provides clarification (justification) of the values of the key technical and economic parameters. The fuzzy W evaluation model allows for combining deterministic and stochastic data with expert estimates and to formalize mental judgments of decision makers using language means of mathematics. Thus, the prerequisites for building an intelligent automated decision-making system in the management of innovative processes and projects in the enterprise are provided.

For successful fighting large fires, it is required to develop new and improve existing decision-making mechanisms with the objective to increase the efficiency of actions of the involved fire-fighting units. When making decisions, the fire extinguishing manager must consider the efficiency of possible solutions. Assessment of the efficiency of each possible option is predictive and depends on the system of criteria used. The decision-making process in such conditions is associated with the use of formalized multi-criteria selection procedures, which, in fact, implement multi-criteria optimization. When choosing a multi-criteria solution, the fire extinguishing manager proceeds from his subjective ideas about the importance of the tasks to be solved at each site. Therefore, it is advisable for each fire protection object to develop its own management decision support system that allows to implement multi-criteria optimization based on the preferences of the fire extinguishing manager. The chosen solution option should ensure that several goals of the fire control system are achieved at once. Methodology is considered related to multi-criteria assessment, which can be used for an objective study of the actions of personnel to extinguish a fire for using them rationally in future. The proposed multi-criteria model for making managerial decisions makes it possible to study a wide class of problems of supporting the control of the fire extinguishing process based on the results of monitoring the actions of fire-fighting units. Practical application of the theoretical results in the form of a management information support system allows reducing the subjectivity and improving the efficiency of the management decision-making process when extinguishing fires.
