Distributed Decision

In cooperative decision-making, agents locally plan for a subset of all agents. Due to only local system knowledge of the agents, these local plans may be inconsistent to local plans of other agents. This inconsistency leads to infeasibility of the plans. This article introduces an algorithm for synchronizing local plans for cooperative distributed decision-making of multi-agent systems. The algorithm consists of two iterative steps: planning and synchronization. In the local planning step, the agents compute local decisions, referred to as plans. Subsequently, consistency of the local plans across agents is achieved using synchronization. The synchronized plans act as reference decisions to the local planning step in the next iteration. In each iteration, the local planning guarantees locally feasible plans, while the synchronization guarantees globally consistent plans in that iteration. The algorithm converges to globally feasible decisions if the coupling topology is feasible. We introduce requirements for the coupling topology to achieve convergence to globally feasible decisions and present the algorithm using a model predictive control example. Our evaluations with car-like robots show that feasible decisions are achieved.

The Social

The mining industry has experienced increased stakeholder pressure over the last decades, and the legitimacy of the mining industry and its place in society is sometimes questioned. On the other hand, high corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance can lead to an increased social acceptance, which in the end may give the mining company the social license to operate. This article focuses on stakeholder management within management system thinking in order to enhance the social acceptance for mining. The purpose is to describe a mining company’s existing stakeholder management practice and identify areas for improvement using established stakeholder management models to achieve an efficient and effective stakeholder management practice. The purpose is also to describe how conceptual sustainability management system (SMS) frameworks can be usefully applied and, more specifically, whether and how stakeholder management models and the concept of materiality analysis are useful for the planning step in an SMS for social acceptance. The findings show that the used SMS framework fits well in this context, and that a materiality analysis can beneficially be used for the ‘systemization of stakeholder demands’ in the planning step of an SMS.

Communication Planning

Today, in restorative and prosthodontic dental treatments, the focus is on aesthetics. This involves meeting the needs and expectations of the patient. Failures occur not only as a result of technical problems, but also as a result of poor communication with the patient. To avoid these scenarios that may obligate us to repeat the restoration from the beginning, we can obtain help by using Mock-up. Despite communication with the diagnostic and treatment planning step, Mock-up enables us to control the function of the end result without even beginning the work. It also enables us to do a minimal invasive tooth preparation. The aim of this study is to use Mock-up to show its effectiveness in communication, planning, and preparation to achieve the demanded aesthetic dental treatment. Materials and Methods: We prepared mock-up according to wax-up in the second meeting- the treatment planning step. We used a minimal invasive, mock-up guided, preparation technique from the Mock-up accepted by us and the patient. Results: This easy and practical method enabled us to avoid the intervention in the ultimate restoration. Our result is in accordance with those of other authors: we had minimal preparation, even some unprepared surfaces and satisfied patient. Conclusions: The use of Mock-up is a simple technique in aesthetic dentistry. Broadly in prosthodontics, it assures us that the work will be functionally and aesthetically successful.
