SIMULATION IN OR AND KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT
The skill of the management scientist lies in the
ability to balance the reality of the developed model with the effort that it
will take to find an answer to the problem. Many decision support systems (DSS)
use representational models to predict the impact of possible decisions. There
are two major types of model: simulation and analytical. A more subjective
approach to decision-making is needed. While information and some form of data
processing are essential, the decision-maker should adopt a less structured
approach to the way the data is used. The development of interactive software
has given more flexibility to the way in which the decision-maker uses the data
and the applied models. This is the essence of decision support systems.
Simulation models as used in business, policy, conflict situations, and and
crisis management through, in almost all cases, dynamic, discrete-event, and
stochastic models. According to the application area, the researcher or designer
should model the real-world situation very carefully. An incorrect, incomplete,
or inconsistent model could result in a bad decision being made by the
decision-maker possibly resulting in economic loss, physical damage or injury.
The simulation models and their applications should take into account
uncertainty and thus contain procedures for risk analysis. We are therefore
interested in research presentations on the science of designing and developing
simulation models to solve decisional problems in policy, management, conflict
situations, and anti-disaster actions. In particular (but not exclusively), we
welcome presentations and reports in the following areas:
- new developments and sound
practice in the use of interactive simulation in building decision support
systems for conflict situations (including simulation games);
- practice in the use of hybrid systems (artificial intelligence in simulation
environments) as decision support in political, conflict and anti-disaster
problems;
- simulation based logistics decision support systems;
- model based simulation in risk analysis for decision makers;
- application of simulation based pattern recognition in complex adaptive
systems to identify and classify a situation to solve decision problems.

Preparedness, Mitigation, Response, Recovery)
Crisis management – extreme events or total disaster

fires, marine risk – tanker disaster, flood, earthquakes, drought, volcanic
eruptions
- Industrial (Hazards, Accidents
(nuclear meltdown), Technology (asbestos))
-
Terrorist, Extreme events
(September 11), Civil Protection, Conflicts risk management - security (Petersberg
tasks)
- Project risk management (Investment
decisions, Research projects risk management, Extremely risky projects risk
management (space exploration), Software development risk management.
