In scientific work it is shown, that our goal is to choose the desired option from variety of alternatives (in our case different options of loading-unloading operations on the vessel) or to take decision which is the best (optimal). Classification in this case is the grounds, as taking the choice is based on choosing certain class, which can be assigned to an alternative. Stratification and rating gives us wide option to make reasonable selection, or to take a kind of decision which will be optimal for the certain moment and occasion. These methods can be used with equal strength at all stages of the processes taking place in the area of current decision making management. This refers to the object of our study of course – solution of selecting optimal option to optimize loading-unloading operation on the vessel. It goes without saying that variety of alternatives doesn’t have any structure, thus abundance of each element was never structured randomly retrieved or no consideration has been proposed, and they are not a priority and in any order. Coming out of this it’s impossible to mention which alternative is better and which is less desirable. In order to solve the task of selecting a set of alternatives successfully, it is necessary, to make structure of the given abundance of alternatives in any form.

Today ethics is embodied not only in day-to-day life, but also in the communication that surrounds it. The study of communication in professional communities makes it possible to determine the relationship between declared and practically embodied values in work. Ethical attitudes are not only postulates embedded in ethical codes, but also principles of interaction embodied in the construction of the information space and decision-making. Features of modern communications influence the way professional ethics is structured, which, in turn, affects its content and practical implementation. The communication through the Internet makes scientific work performative, filling it with symbols and labels. Increasingly, communication practices have to be carried out around indicators, and thus communication becomes a conductor of neoliberal reforms in scientific work. Therefore, the consequence of modern forms of communication is the forced utilitarianism of ethics associated with the need to compete in the “scientific market”. The article suggests possible ways to overcome the contradictions of communicative transformations of professional values.

The paper deals with the development of mathematical model and numerical algorithms for solving the problem of transfer and diffusion of aerosol emissions in the atmospheric boundary layer. The model takes into account several significant parameters such as terrain relief, characteristics of underlying surface and weather-climatic factors. A series of numerical experiments were conducted based on the given model. The obtained results presented here show how these factors affect aerosol emissions spread in the atmosphere.

The intense growth of cities affects their inhabitants to a considerable extent. The issues facing the traveling population include congestion and growing harmful emissions. Urban transport requires changes towards eco-friendly solutions. However, even though new forms of traveling (sharing services) are being implemented, their integration with public transport remains problematic. On account of the large number of available services combined with the absence of their integration, city inhabitants are faced with the dilemma of choosing between one or several transport modes which would enable them to make the given trip. The main goal of this article is to propose a model for integration of different transport services which could support those who intend to travel in the decision-making process. Therefore, the parameters of a model of urban sharing services were identified and classified. The parameters discussed in the paper with reference to an extensive literature review describe how individual sharing services are functioning. What has also been identified is the location-specific factors as well as those related to the potential area of operation which affect the integration with public transport. In order to take all the relevant parameters into account and find a solution to the problem at hand, a multi-criteria decision-making approach has been proposed. To this end, scores and weights determining their impact on the model have been established. For purposes of the solution in question, the relevant calculations were conducted by referring to an actual need to travel between selected locations.

AbstractCollective decision making is important for maximizing total benefits while preserving equality among individuals in the competitive multi-armed bandit (CMAB) problem, wherein multiple players try to gain higher rewards from multiple slot machines. The CMAB problem represents an essential aspect of applications such as resource management in social infrastructure. In a previous study, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrated that entangled photons can physically resolve the difficulty of the CMAB problem. This decision-making strategy completely avoids decision conflicts while ensuring equality. However, decision conflicts can sometimes be beneficial if they yield greater rewards than non-conflicting decisions, indicating that greedy actions may provide positive effects depending on the given environment. In this study, we demonstrate a mixed strategy of entangled- and correlated-photon-based decision-making so that total rewards can be enhanced when compared to the entangled-photon-only decision strategy. We show that an optimal mixture of entangled- and correlated-photon-based strategies exists depending on the dynamics of the reward environment as well as the difficulty of the given problem. This study paves the way for utilizing both quantum and classical aspects of photons in a mixed manner for decision making and provides yet another example of the supremacy of mixed strategies known in game theory, especially in evolutionary game theory.

The nations take various strategies in exposure to different developments and phenomena and impact on foreign and internal policies of countries in international scene proportional to their internal and external conditions and rivals and at international arena. What US implemented after September 11 Event and targeted accusation finger toward Taliban and Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan is deemed as a type of strategy that has occurred in created nostalgic climate together with hasty decision making and negligence to domestic issues in Afghan Community while their output was to take different and even paradoxical strategies in this crisis-stricken region since 1980s. In this article that has been written in order to analyze US Post September- 11 Strategies in Afghanistan this basic question will be answered that how changes in US macro policies influenced in orientation of diplomacy of this country and why this country has adapted different policies in occupation of Afghanistan. Afterwards, it is deduced according to the given findings from librarian data collection method that the constant changes in US strategy in Afghanistan were due to overlooking of domestic issues and historic, ethnic, cultural, political, and ideological complexities of this country that has resulted in degradation of US position in world scene and its failure in suppression of Taliban.This article has been excerpted from my PhD treatise under title of ‘The role of United States in the regional crisis (e.g. Afghan and Iraqi crises) and the rise of revolutionary and radicalism on the emergence of international terrorism’.

The article addresses creation of a mathematical model for a real problem regarding time coordination of periodic train connections operated on single-track lines. The individual train connections are dispatched with a predefined tact, and their arrivals at and departures to predefined railway stations (transfer nodes) need to be coordinated one another. In addition, because the train connections are operated on single-track lines, trains that pass each other in a predefined railway stations must be also coordinated. To optimize the process, mathematical programming methods are used. The presented article includes a mathematical model of the given task, and the proposed model is tested with real data. The calculation experiments were implemented using optimization software Xpress-IVE.

We propose a mathematical model of large elastocreep deformations. As part of the constructed mathematical model the problem of deformation of the material in the vicinity of microdefect was solved. Integro-differential dependence of external pressure from irreversible deformations and displacements was obtained. The laws of loading material from vector displacements were calculated. We have shown that the monotonous laws of deformation can lead to non-monotonous stress changes.


This chapter presents the holistic and dynamic knowledge management system (H&DKMS) concept that is implemented in a proof of concept to prove the feasibility of the chapter using the book's HMM approach. The H&DKMS supports business transformation projects (BTP) and enterprise architecture projects (EAP) (simply project). The H&DKMS is supported mainly by an adopted fictious case from the insurance domain. The uniqueness of the proposed HMM promotes a holistic architecture and implementation model that supports complex case studies. The integrated knowledge management and decision-making process are used in a day-to-day business and technology problems solving. In this chapter, the proposed solution (or model) is supported by a real-life case of business transformation methodology in the domain of H&DKMS that in turn is based on the alignment of various standards and avant-garde methodologies.
