1. Transformative decision rules and axiomatic arguments for the principle of Maximizing Expected Utility
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. Transformative Decision Rules : Foundations and Applications
Sammanfattning : A transformative decision rule alters the representation of a decisionproblem, either by changing the sets of acts and states taken intoconsideration, or by modifying the probability or value assignments.Examples of decision rules belonging to this class are the principleof insufficient reason, Isaac Levi’s condition of E-admissibility, Luceand Raiffa’s merger of states-rule, and the de minimis principle.

3. Approaches for Distributing Large Scale Bioinformatic Analyses
Sammanfattning : Ever since high-throughput DNA sequencing became economically feasible, the amount of biological data has grown exponentially. This has been one of the biggest drivers in introducing high-performance computing (HPC) to the field of biology. LÄS MER
4. Incomparable risks, values and preferences

5. Optimisation models for train timetabling and marshalling yard planning
Sammanfattning : Railways provide high capacity, safe and energy efficient transportation of goods and passengers. However, railway transportation also suffers from intrinsic restrictions and the effectiveness and efficiency of the transportation depend on the railway actors’ ability to solve a set of hard and interconnected planning problems.
