WORKSHOP: Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) and Its Role in Risk-Based Decision Making for Planning, Design and Operations; June 8-12, 1998; Charlottesville, VA

解决多准则决策问题(MCDM)的现有技术层出不穷。这些技术的重点和风格在很大程度上取决于其开发者(S)的专业领域。这次讲习班的目的是弥合营地之间的差距。研讨会方案、主题和会议的组织是以以下基本前提为前提的：多边清洁发展机制已成为一种将常识与经验、定量、规范、描述性和基于价值判断的分析相结合的哲学。讲习班将由平行的会议组成，包括邀请的会议和贡献的会议。最后一天将为研讨会预留时间，研讨会将围绕研究、方法论、理论和应用方面新出现的多层面清洁发展机制主题进行讨论。该研讨会将提供一个论坛(机制)，以确定美国和非美国科学家之间未来的合作。研讨会将成为美国和非美国科学家和工程师之间交流知识的绝佳媒介，这些科学家和工程师对基于技术(和非技术)的系统的规划、设计和操作感兴趣，这些系统是在风险和不确定条件下做出决定的。我们预计将有来自前苏联加盟共和国和其他第三世界国家的大量与会者。国际科学家和工程师以及精选的国际博士生的广泛参与将有助于建立国际合作和网络。

9809377Haimes There is a proliferation of existing techniques for solving multicriteria decision-making problems (MCDM). The emphasis and style of these techniques depends largely on the field of expertise of its developer(s). This Workshop is aimed at bridging the gap between the camps. The workshop program, themes, and sessions are organized on the fundamental premise that MCDM has emerged as a philosophy that integrates common sense with empirical, quantitative, normative, descriptive and value-judgment-based analyses. The workshop will consist of parallel sessions featuring invited and contributed sessions. The final day will be reserved for a Workshop with panels on emerging MCDM topics in research, methodologies, theory, and applications. The Workshop, will provide a forum (mechanism) to identify prospective collaboration between U.S. and non-U.S. scientists. The Workshop will serve as an excellent medium for the exchange of knowledge among U.S. and non-U.S. scientists and engineers interested in the planning, design, and operations of technology (and non-technology) based systems where decisions are made under conditions of risk and uncertainty. We expect a large number of participants from the Republics of the former Soviet Union and other third-world countries.This broad participation of international scientists and engineers as well as selected international Ph.D. students will enable the establishment of international collaborations and networks.
