Management Plans

Assessments of the relative risks posed by chemicals are needed to assist in the development of management plans that minimize ecological impacts. A procedure scoring and screening chemicals entitled ranking procedure based on risk percentile index and concentration (rrpic) was developed based on inherent physico-chemical properties and toxicity as well as detection concentration. The properties and toxicity were transformed into risk percentile indices (rpi) and the rpi was then used to calculate risk score (rs) by multiplying the detection concentration. Using Hasse diagram, the chemicals having different rss were classified into several rank levels. The averaged rank (rav) of each chemical was calculated by using Local Partial Order Model (LPOM) and the risks of chemicals were arranged in a linear order. The rrpic was employed to scoring and screening 31 chemicals detected in Taihu Lake of China.

Military Command

An enduring challenge in management and in military command is ensuring that subordinates select actions as their leader would, particularly when circumstances change unexpectedly. An experiment was conducted to test a measure of shared interpretation of commander's intent and its effects on the adaptability of subordinates. Performance was measured in the context of a simulated law enforcement task. A course of action ranking procedure was used as a measure of interpretation of intent with rank order correlation reflecting shared interpretation. The study validates a measure of shared interpretation of commander's intent and supports the hypothesis that making values explicit enhances shared interpretation and adaptability. The findings indicate that when missions change in unexpected ways, a commander's intent statement that presents the values by which actions are to be prioritized produces greater agreement between commander and subordinates on action preferences than do intent statements that prescribe command preference for specific actions.

Behavioral Rules

Knowledge is considered actionable if users can take direct actions based on such knowledge to their advantage. Among the most important and distinctive actionable knowledge are actionable behavioral rules that can directly and explicitly suggest specific actions to take to influence (restrain or encourage) the behavior in the users’ best interest. However, in mining such rules, it often occurs that different rules may suggest the same actions with different expected utilities, which we call conflicting rules. To resolve the conflicts, a previous valid method was proposed. However, inconsistency of the measure for rule evaluating may hinder its performance. To overcome this problem, we develop a new method that utilizes rule ranking procedure as the basis for selecting the rule with the highest utility prediction accuracy. More specifically, we propose an integrative measure, which combines the measures of the support and antecedent length, to evaluate the utility prediction accuracies of conflicting rules. We also introduce a tunable weight parameter to allow the flexibility of integration. We conduct several experiments to test our proposed approach and evaluate the sensitivity of the weight parameter. Empirical results indicate that our approach outperforms those from previous research.

ZusammenfassungAngeregt durch eine ergebnislos endende Kontroverse in diesem Jahrbuch über die unterschiedliche Rolle, die der Staat im Rahmen seiner Kompetenz für die marktwirtschaftlich Ordnung hat und die andererseits der interstaatliche Systemwettbewerb verlangt, nimmt der Beitrag den heute ausufernden Gebrauch des Wettbewerbsbegriffs zum Anlaß für die Entwicklung einer ordnenden Taxonomie des Wettbewerbsbegriffs. Die Zielsetzung eines jeden Wettbewerbs sieht der Beitrag in der Entdeckung einer Rangordnung unter den Wettbewerbern. Das ist sicher plausibel im Falle des Sports, der Politik und in sozialen Gemeinschaften. Der Beitrag zeigt am Beispiel des Preiswettbewerbs, in welchem Sinne der wirtschaftliche Wettbewerb ebenfalls als Rangordnungsverfahren zu verstehen ist. Neben dem wirtschaftlichen Wettbewerb werden mehrere Varianten des Reputationswettbewerbs unter ihren unterschiedlichen institutionellen Vorbedingungen dargestellt. Die Absicht des Beitrags besteht in dem Versuch, der Perspektive der spontanen wettbewerblichen Interaktion in einer freien Gesellschaft einen analytischen Zugang zu vermitteln.
