The economic, social, demographic, technological achievements, uneven distribution of raw materials, energy resources, require the opening of all economic systems. Mathematical models, came to help the arguments in this case, I propose a way to "experience" what the real situation is impossible....

This article describes an expert system, COT-XPERT, developed for controlling insects and diseases affecting cotton crop as well as system for Rice Stem Borers (RSB) simulation. The system works in two parts. The first part addresses the issues of efficient use of knowledge for RSB problems and...

This paper reports on the design of a novel two-stage mechanism, based on strictly proper scoring rules, that motivates selfish rational agents to make a costly probabilistic estimate or forecast of a specified precision and report it truthfully to a centre. Our mechanism is applied in a setting...

In recent years, the government, of African Countries has assumed major responsibilities for economic reforms and growth. In attempting to describe their economies, economists (policymakers) in many African Countries have applied certain models that are by now widely known: Linear programming...

It is very important to a company to select the best program based on its needs, especially there are hundreds of programs, similar in general, different in price and functions. Many companies do only comparing between those programs, trying to select the best on this comparison. This article...

The efficiency of emergency service systems is measured in terms of their ability to deploy units and personnel in a timely and effective manner upon an event’s occurrence. Aiming to exploit stochastic demand, spatial tracing and location analysis of emergency incidents are examined through...

This paper proposes a novel solution for the n agent cake cutting (resource allocation) problem. We propose a negotiation protocol for dividing a resource among n agents and then provide an algorithm for allotting portions of the resource. We prove that this protocol can enable distribution of...

This paper represents a summary of a research report and the results of developing an educational software, including a multi-agent system for teaching accounting bases and financial accounting. The paper describes the structure of the multi-agent system, defined as a complex network of...
