Strategic management tools such as scale index-market growth rate matrix (S-M matrix), industrial attraction-corporate strength matrix (I-S matrix), market growth rate-market occupancy matrix (G-O matrix), and life cycle-competitive position matrix (L-C matrix), were applied in the MAAE-DSS with its own data base (DB), model base (MB), method base (MeB), and knowledge base (KB), in order to support the management bureau in the formulation of M&A strategies.展开更多

In this paper, we suggest that investment evaluation in process industries should be executed under three strategic objectives--enterprise benefits, social benefits and customer benefits. A systematic investment evaluation and decision-making method with a four-step procedure based on the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is proposed to evaluate various qualitative and quantitative elements with various criteria. At the first step, the decision hierarchy is constructed under the three strategic objectives. Second, pair-wise comparison is utilized to evaluate the weights of elements and criteria. Third, qualitative elements are quantified by pair-wise comparison and quantitative elements are re-scaled by a uniform criterion. At the last, the best choice is made through synthesizing values upward in the hierarchy. An investment decision support system (DSS) is developed based on Microsoft Excel, and applied to a retrofit investment of united fluid catalytic cracking(FCC) and liquefied gas separation process in a refinery plant.展开更多

The following problem areas are discussed: (1) the classification capability of multi-layered perceptrons; (2) theself-configuration algorithm for facilitating the design of the neural nets' structure;and,finally (3) the application of the fast BP algorithm to speed up the learning procedure. Some experimental results with respect to the application of multi-layered perceptrons as classifier systems in the comprehensive evaluation of Chinese large cities are presented.展开更多

But the decision on the bidding often is made according to the qualitative evaluation based on the subjective opinion of specialists. Therefore, the fuzzy mathematics principle was applied and a synthetic evaluation model was established to provide an effective method for the development of quantitative bidding decision in this paper.展开更多

Therefore, correctly identifying the financial benefits of IT projects is the precondition to ensure the validity of the financial evaluation. Essentially, IT projects can be divided into productive IT projects and supportive IT projects. The paper analyzes the importance of identifying the financial benefits and introduces the meaning, characteristics and classification of financial benefits of IT projects. On this basis, the paper identifies the financial benefits of both productive IT projects and supportive IT projects and emphasizes the formation and specific calculation method of the two types of IT projects. For productive IT projects and supportive IT projects, the calculation of financial benefits should employ different methods.展开更多
