In developed country markets, the consideration of consumer wants has not been prominent hitherto in aquaculture production decisions. Like capture fisheries aquaculture has been product driven. This supply-side focus reflects an emphasis upon technical solutions to the production and capacity problems of high unit value (HUV) species culture. Whilst this...

Le projet «système d’information géographique pour les pêcheries en Afrique de l’Ouest » a pour objectif de promouvoir l’utilisation des systèmes d’information géographique comme outil d’aide à la décision en matière d’aménagement des pêcheries. Un rappel préliminaire des critères caractérisant un produit d’aide à la décision (accessibilité technique, disponibilité en...
A procedure has been developed to optimize designs of metal-clad post-frame buildings using an expert system. The novel part of the study is the development of a procedure that extends the solution of an engineering problem from a conventional algorithmic Computer Aided Design (CAD) program to be used by the...
The Endangered Species Act is hailed as the “gold standard” of species conservation legislation both in the U.S. and globally. There are scarce conservation funds that we as a society can spend on the recovery of endangered species, so it is important to understand how the parties involved with this...
This paper studies the problem of learning diagnostic policies from training examples. A diagnostic policy is a complete description of the decision-making actions of a diagnostician (i.e., tests followed by a diagnostic decision) for all possible combinations of test results. An optimal diagnostic policy is one that minimizes the expected...
Decision support systems (DSS) have been used to a very limited extent in pond aquaculture. This study documents the development of a DSS (POND) which allows representation of an entire pond aquaculture facility, and provides analysis capabilities in the form of simulation models and an economics package. Simulation tools in...
Decision-making competence reflects individual differences in the susceptibility to committing decision-making errors, measured using tasks common from behavioral decision research (e.g., framing effects, under/overconfidence, following decision rules). Prior research demonstrates that those with higher decision-making competence report lower incidence of health-risking and antisocial behaviors, but there has been less focus...
