Download or read book Negotiation Processes Modeling Frameworks and Information Technology written by Melvin Shakun and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on negotiation processes and how negotiation modeling frameworks and information technology can support these. A modeling framework for negotiation as a purposeful complex adaptive process is presented and computer-implemented in the first three chapters. Two game-theoretic contributions use non-cooperative games in extensive form and a computer-implemented graph model for conflict resolution, respectively. Two chapters use the negotiators' joint utility distribution to provide problem structure and computer support. A chapter on cognitive support uses restructurable modeling as a framework. One chapter matches information technologies with negotiation tasks. Another develops computer support based on preference programming. Two final chapters develop a stakeholder approach to support system evaluation, and a research framework for them, respectively. Negotiation Processes: Modeling Frameworks and Information Technology will be of interest to researchers and students in the areas of negotiation, group decision/negotiation support systems and management science, as well as to practising negotiators interested in this technology.

Book excerpt: Advanced Topics in Global Information Management is a series of books on advance topics in global information management (GIM). GIM research continues to progress, with some scholars pushing the boundaries of thinking and others challenging the status quo. Advanced Topics in Global Information Management, Volume 4 is a part of this series. In order to sustain any competitive advantage gained through the application of information technology, companies must continually seek improvement. They must employ environmental scanning techniques to determine what technology is available, be willing to adopt new information technology, and know what the competition is planning or doing. Advanced Topics in Global Information Management, Volume 4 addresses these important issues.
Download or read book EURO Working Group on DSS written by Jason Papathanasiou and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-09 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book recapitulates the major developments in Decision Support Systems (DSS) over the last 30 years in order to evaluate the research areas of decision making and in which direction the field should proceed. As it attempts to find a consensus about the next steps for the future of DSS research, the book also enforces the trends and new technologies currently in use. The book examines topics such as decision analysis for enterprise systems and non-hierarchical networks, integrated solutions for decision support and knowledge management in distributed environments, decision support system evaluation and analysis through social networks, and e-learning and its application to real environments. It clearly presents the evidence to support their cases and attempts to promote an extensive and objective discussion. In addition, the book also reflects on approaches to dead-end ideas and failures in DSS to better understand the lessons learned. The contributions for this book have been written by thought leaders and influential researchers from the EURO Working Group of Decision Support Systems (EWG-DSS).

Keywords:Multiple Criteria Decision Making;Multiattribute;Multiple Objectives;Multiple CriteriaKey Features:First book to cover an informal history of Multiple Criteria Decision MakingCovers decade-by-decade developments in MCDM, from early history until nowContains brief biographies and pictures of major contributors in the fieldReviews: “Our ability to analyze and resolve complex decision problems is one of the most important developments of the last half of the 20th century. But, like all such endeavors, advances were often based on earlier ideas from a multitude of fields, ideas that encouraged and gave impetus to new generations of researchers. All readers of Multiple Criteria Decision Making: From Early History to the 21st Century will find that the authors have woven the early and modern histories of MCDM into a scientific adventure story, one that helps us to understand better how advances in a field of research are the result of many, many seemingly unrelated activities.” Saul I Gass Professor Emeritus Department of Decision, Operations and Information Technologies Robert H Smith School of Business, University of Maryland, College Park “Rarely do we get to understand the evolution of a scientific field told with such care and understanding. And a handy guide to the MCDM literature as well! I'll have all of my students read it!” Mark H Karwan Praxair Professor in Operations Research, SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University at Buffalo (SUNY) “I really enjoyed reading this book. It was written by three experts who have lived with MCDM and its history for a long time (two of them for over 40 years!). Now our community has a useful and valuable book that can be used by students and researchers to learn about MCDM and its history. I particularly like the photos which bring the history and its people to life.” Pekka Korhonen Professor of Statistics Aalto University, School of Economics “This book brings to life — contributors, contributions, activities — the evolution, growth, and future directions of MCDM, a multidiscipline that embraces all facets of decision making. Kudos to three highly distinguished MCDM scholars who have written a classic, which should be essential reading and serve as a resource for scholars in all academic and professional disciplines.” Herb Moskowitz Purdue University Retired Professor “Köksalan and his co-authors provide us with a better understanding of the history of an important area in OR to which many top researchers have contributed especially over the last twenty to thirty years … As one of the first such publications covering a specific subfield, this book has certainly set a very high standard.” IFORS Newsletter

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was our intention to organize IAIT 2010 as the place where researchers and ind- trial practitioners could share their work and achievements in information technology, both theoretical and in application. This is the fourth time we have organized IAIT to serve as a venue to foster collaboration among industry and academia from different parts of the world. A lot has been achieved since the launch of the first IAIT in 2005; however, many challenges remain to be addressed in the years to come. IAIT 2010 drew attendance from leading professionals in both industry and academes, as in IAIT 2009. In addition to the relevant program offered by IAIT 2010, the conference p- vided an excellent environment to meet peers in the IT profession, build relationships, and exchange lessons learned. During the conference, participants presented and d- cussed the latest topics in information technology, ranging from technical knowledge and experimentation to future strategic directions. As the Internet continues to reach out even further, almost everything in our daily life is accessible via IP addresses, our societies need to recognize that we need new knowledge to make this advancement become a benefit to all life in this world. It is almost impossible to gain this new knowledge without contributions from our c- leagues, working in various aspects of information technology. Some times, new knowledge found in one area can help simplify difficult task in another. Together we can make our world better by creating applications from information technology.

Download or read book Complex Automated Negotiations Theories Models and Software Competitions written by Takayuki Ito and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-09-13 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Complex Automated Negotiations are a widely studied, emerging area in the field of Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems. In general, automated negotiations can be complex, since there are a lot of factors that characterize such negotiations. For this book, we solicited papers on all aspects of such complex automated negotiations, which are studied in the field of Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems. This book includes two parts, which are Part I: Agent-based Complex Automated Negotiations and Part II: Automated Negotiation Agents Competition. Each chapter in Part I is an extended version of ACAN 2011 papers after peer reviews by three PC members. Part II includes ANAC 2011 (The Second Automated Negotiating Agents Competition), in which automated agents who have different negotiation strategies and implemented by different developers are automatically negotiate in the several negotiation domains. ANAC is an international competition in which automated negotiation strategies, submitted by a number of universities and research institutes across the world, are evaluated in a tournament style. The purpose of the competition is to steer the research in the area of bilateral multi-issue, closed negotiation. This book includes rules, results, agents and domains descriptions for ANAC2011 submitted by organizers and finalists.
Download or read book Computer Modeling and Negotiation Management Classic Reprint written by Dhanesh K. Samarasan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Computer Modeling and Negotiation Management To avoid any misunderstanding, it is worth stating that this paper does not recommend the use of computer tools and methods to the exclusion of all others. As presented in Section 1 of this paper, the claim is that these tools and methods are a useful supplement to other established techniques of dispute resolution in complex negotiations. The introduction of models and modeling into anything but a voluntary and perhaps even non-binding process would be problematic. On the other hand, many negotiators, after gaining a certain familiarity with the tools outlined in this paper, and the philosophy behind the extending Of these tools, may indeed be willing to consider their serious and systematic use. While the idea of cooperating with a negotiating 'opponent' over a piece of 'foreign' technology is difficult to accept at first, it becomes more acceptable to negotiators and facilitators to the extent that it combines a qualitative feel for the processes of negotiation with a quantitative approach towards the modeling of contextual issues.
