Download or read book Controlling the Oosterschelde Storm surge Barrier written by Louis Catlett and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 1979 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first in a four-volume study to assist the Netherlands government in a policy analysis of alternative control strategies for operating the storm-surge barrier across the Oosterschelde basin. For each alternative, the project analyzed several consequences or "impacts," including the safety of the dikes along the Oosterschelde; the effects on the ecology and the shellfish and fishing industries of the region; the impacts on water management and shipping in the basin; and the implications for the design of the barrier and its control system. This volume describes the approach and summarizes the results of the complete analysis. It first presents an analysis of hydraulic conditions and closure frequency, then describes the rationale for selecting three alternative strategies for detailed evaluation, and finally illustrates the impacts of the strategies, category by category, through the use of a matrix display device--a colored scorecard.

The methodology is intended for use in the Planning, Programming, and Budgeting process, so that those parts of the Army program dealing with logistics functions and resources can be better prepared and justified. The ALA-X methodology will relate resources among 38 categories of logistics resources to specific measures of combat capability and will treat them simultaneously so that tradeoffs and substitutions can be performed.
Download or read book Research Perspectives on Decision Making Under Uncertainty written by Katrin Borcherding and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1984 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a broad view of the psychological and decision-analytic frontiers of current research on human decision making. There are altogether 21 papers: on basic theory concerning the notion of a good' decision and requisite decision models; on methodology for tracing or describing information search, choice heuristics and multiple objectives of decision makers; on the judgement of technological risks and the political processing of uncertainty; and on various practical applications including analytic versus knowledge-based methods for medical decision making. Apart from updating the records of behavioural decision theorists, the book should be valuable to researchers and teachers concerned with decision analysis and practical applications of decision theory to such varied problems as personal decision counseling, multiple criteria decision aids and the design of decision support systems, research design and risk management.
