Interoperable decision support system based on multivariate time series for set...

Nowadays, interoperable decision support systems play a crucial role to improve production activity control in industrial Companies, and enable them to face the growing exigencies imposed by the arising Industry 4.0 era. In this paper an interoperable decision support system based on multivariate time series for setup data processing and visualization is put forward. The proposed system is described, in the con...

Normalization techniques for collaborative networks

PurposeNormalization is a crucial step in all decision models, to produce comparable and dimensionless data from heterogeneous data. As such, various normalization techniques are available but their performance depends on a number of characteristics of the problem at hand. Thus, this study aims to introduce a recommendation framework for supporting users to select data normalization techniques that better fit t...

Decision support visualization approach in textile manufacturing a case study f...

Decision support visualization tools provide insights for solving problems by displaying data in an interactive, graphical format. Such tools can be effective for supporting decision-makers in finding new opportunities and in measuring decision outcomes. In this study, was used a visualization tool capable of handling multivariate time series for studying a problem of operational control in a textile manufactur...

A data fusion approach for business partners selection

Strategies of market diversification push companies to provide novel products and services to customers, belonging to new geographic and demographic segments. Additionally, market development strategies targeting non-buying customers in selected segments or new buyers in new segments may be paired with increased product diversification and improved business agility. To fulfil the requirements associated with ma...

Collaborative framework for virtual organisation synthesis based on a dynamic m...

Globalisation and increased competition pushes companies to grow outside political and geographical boundaries, frequently forcing them to increase product diversification and optimise their relation with potential and effective partners and customers. In this scenario, implementing agile collaboration networks with business partners is a requirement. In this article the authors propose a collaborative framewor...

An MCDM approach to the selection of novel technologies for innovative in-vehic...

Driving a car is a complex skill that includes interacting with multiple systems inside the vehicle. Today’s challenge in the automotive industry is to produce innovative In-Vehicle Information Systems (IVIS) that are pleasant to use and satisfy the costumers’ needs while, simultaneously, maintaining the delicate balance of primary task vs. secondary tasks while driving. The authors report a MCDM approach for r...

A Knowledge Based System for Supporting Sustainable Industrial Management in a ...

In this paper we propose a knowledge based system (KBS), based on smart objects and a data fusion model to support industrial management decision making applied to a clothes manufacturing enterprise. The management processes cover factory-production levels to higher decision-making levels. Therefore, the proposed KBS contributes to solving different kind of decision problems, including factory supervision, prod...

Spatial-temporal business partnership selection in uncertain environments

Small and Medium (SME) companies are facing growing challenges while trying to implement globalized business strategies. Contemporary business models need to account for spatial-temporal changeable environments, where lack of confidence and uncertainty in data are a reality. Further, SMEs are finding it increasingly difficult to include all required competences in their internal structures; therefore, they need...

Measuring a technology’s potential for innovative In-Vehicle Information System...

Driving a car is a complex skill that includes the primary task of driving but also secondary tasks related with interacting with multiple systems in the car (e.g. infotainment). Current automobile industry trends, point towards maximizing the benefits of using more secondary task functions inside the car without affecting the primary task of the driver. Technologies for novel IVIS (In-Vehicle Information Syste...
