Group preference structures in AHP–group decision making

This paper presents a procedure that allows us to determine the preference structures (PS) associated to each of the different groups of actors that can be identified in a group decision making problem with a large number of individuals. To that end, it makes use of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) (Saaty, 1980) as the technique to solve discrete multicriteria decision making problems. This technique permits the resolution of multicriteria, multienvironment and multiactor problems in which subjective aspects and uncertainty have been incorporated into the model, constructing ratio scales corresponding to the priorities relative to the elements being compared, normalised in a distributive manner (wi = 1). On the basis of the individuals’ priorities we identify different clusters for the decision makers and, for each of these, the associated preference structure using, to that end, tools analogous to those of Multidimensional Scaling. The resulting PS will be employed to extract knowledge for the subsequent negotiation processes and, should it be necessary, to determine the relative importance of the alternatives being compared using anyone of the existing procedures

ESPA Group estreny els enllaços amb la Universitat de Girona amb unes noves instal·lacions al Parc Científic i Tecnològic

ESPA és la marca comercial del grup especialitzada en la fabricació de bombes elèctriques que en els darrers anys ha diversificat la seva oferta cap a sistemes i equips al servei de l’aigua. Els comercialitza a tot el món i alguns dels seus productes són líders en diversos mercats. La vinculació amb la Universitat ve de lluny, a través de la col•laboració en projectes de recerca i amb la participació activa en el Patronat de l’EPS. Ara, ESPA ha entrat al Parc Científic i Tecnològic, i els llaços entre l’empresa i la Universitat s’estrenyen encara més

Six Degrees: The New Science of Networks (Collective Dynamics Group ISERP -- Columbia University) Course Syllabus

W3233 -- Networks and Complexity in Social Systems (Collective Dynamics Group ISERP -- Columbia University) Course Syllabus

The Networks and Complexity in Social Systems course commences with an overview of the nascent field of complex networks, dividing it into three related but distinct strands: Statistical description of large scale networks, viewed as static objects; the dynamic evolution of networks, where now the structure of the network is understood in terms of a growth process; and dynamical processes that take place on fixed networks; that is, "networked dynamical systems". (A fourth area of potential research ties all the previous three strands together under the rubric of co-evolution of networks and dynamics, but very little research has been done in this vein and so it is omitted.) The remainder of the course treats each of the three strands in greater detail, introducing technical knowledge as required, summarizing the research papers that have introduced the principal ideas, and pointing out directions for future development. With regard to networked dynamical systems, the course treats in detail the more specific topic of information propagation in networks, in part because this topic is of great relevance to social science, and in part because it has received the most attention in the literature to date.
