INNOVATIVE PERFORMANCE AND INNOVATION SYSTEM OF LATVIA
2021
The research andanalysis of strengths and weaknesses of national innovation system is extremelyimportant to successful and efficient innovation support policymaking.Innovation support policies should take into consideration all specifies ofnational innovation system in the country, not being one-size-fits-all. Untilnow, little analysis on the Latvian innovation system was made. The paper aimsto show Latvian innovative performance and to propose factors forwell-functioning innovation system of Latvia. This research gives apossibility to researchers and policy-makers to investigate the mismatchbetween policies and problems and identify policy gaps. KEY WORDS: innovativeperformance, innovation…
A CAPWAP Architecture for Automatic Frequency Planning in WLAN
2007
Recently, the impressive success of the IEEE 802.11 WLAN technology has dramatically changed the role of the wireless connectivity provisioning. Born as a wireless extension of small office or home networks, todays the WLANs are getting more and more popular as a large, even metropolitan, area networks. The deployment of large-scale WLANs has some critical issues, because of the lack of coordinated management functionalities among the network nodes. In this paper we briefly describe the CAPWAP architectural solution, for centralizing some control and maintenance functionalities in large scale WLAN, by guaranteeing the interoperability between network nodes provided by different vendors. We …
Towards integrated operations for ships
2013
Maritime customers will benefit greatly from integrated operations between ship and shore. It requires integrating diverse information services within a variety of communication environments, which is a complex task. The common approach to dealing with complex tasks is to use a divide-and-conquer policy and solve problems independently. Since there are mainly two challenges involved - interoperability among heterogeneous applications and connectivity through difficult maritime networks, to handle them separately has become useful. While interoperability and connectivity solutions work well individually, if we put them together in the maritime context, problems arise. We b services based int…

An Interactive Multiple Objective Linear Programming Method for a Class of Underlying Nonlinear Utility Functions
1983
This paper develops a method for interactive multiple objective linear programming assuming an unknown pseudo concave utility function satisfying certain general properties. The method is an extension of our earlier method published in this journal (Zionts, S., Wallenius, J. 1976. An interactive programming method for solving the multiple criteria problem. Management Sci. 22 (6) 652–663.). Various technical problems present in predecessor versions have been resolved. In addition to presenting the supporting theory and algorithm, we discuss certain options in implementation and summarize our practical experience with several versions of the method.
Brief Introduction to Probability Distributions
2014
There is a great deal of uncertainty in any project. That is, data is seldom absolutely reliable and exact, since there is never certainty about duration of tasks, price variations, effect on the environment, etc., to say nothing about those aspects which are external to the project and for which the project developer has no control, such as weather conditions, demand, stock fluctuations, inflation, supplier’s delays, etc. It is believed that many projects are not completed in time and finish with cost overrun, because in their preparation, data is taken as unquestionable, and then actual conditions show that it is not precisely the case. For this reason the uncertainty aspect has to be con…

An Analytic Hierachy Process for Ranking Operating Costs of Low Cost and Full Service Airlines
2009
This paper develops an application of the analytic hierarchy process to rank the operating cost components of full service and low cost airlines. It takes into account the financial balance sheets and answers to a questionnaire submitted to the managers of selected airlines. The results suggest that the analytic hierarchy process can be appropriately used to obtain the ranking of the costs taking into account different views: financial, management and operative. Rental, office equipment and other supplies costs show the highest importance in the cost ranking, both for full services and low cost airlines. The robustness of the results is tested by Monte Carlo analysis.
