In section 10, this flexible methodology is applied to the Cuban Missile Crisis to demonstrate its many benefits for users.…”

An advanced decision support system (DSS) for implementing the Graph Model for Conflict Resolution (GMCR) is designed and illustrated using a real world conflict.The new system, called GMCR+, is capable of handling a wide variety of decision problems involving two or more decision-makers (DMs). Given the DMs, the options or courses of action available to each of them, and each DM's relative preferences over the possible scenarios or states that could occur, GMCR+ can calculate stability and equilibrium results according to a rich range of solution concepts that explain human behaviour under conflict. Then the inverse component of the DSS GMCR+ can determine what DMs' preference rankings of states must be in order to produce stable states and equilibria as specified by the user. Other features incorporated into GMCR+ include coalition analysis, graph and tree diagram visualisation, narrative reporting of results and a tracing feature that shows how the conflict could evolve from a status quo state to a desirable equilibrium or other specified outcome. The system GMCR+ has a modular design in order to facilitate the addition of further advancements.

Variations and change orders are inevitable in the course of implementing a construction investment project. It can appear throughout the project from the design phase to the construction, acceptance, and completion of the project. This change affects more or less the schedule, quality, and cost of the project. On the other hand, variations and changes orders may also cause disputes and conflicts among project stakeholders. In order to overcome this issue, this paper presents critical the factors which need to be addressed and used for change orders in design-build projects in Vietnam. The results showed that written instructions, variation value, and scope of variation are the three most important factors used in the variation management process in design-build projects in Vietnam.

“…They can be categorized in three main branches: finding the causes of the disputes (Jaffar et al 2011), proposing the procedures to decrease or avoid the disputes (Harmon 2003;Song et al 2104) and dispute resolution methods (Cheung et al 2010;Yousefi et al 2010;Chou 2012). Researchers used different tools for dispute resolution presentation.…”

Abstract. Conflict between parties is a common issue in construction projects. In the present article, the conflicts between contractor and employer in delayed Design-Bid-Build projects have been studied. Defining a case study, a dispute resolution method has been proposed. This case has been considered as a MCDM problem. This problem has been assumed as a discrete zero-sum two-person matrix game with grey numbers. Among the four alternatives available for contractor and employer in the proposed case study, termination is the last alternative that decision makers choose. Based on different risk values, authors determined the optimal solution for both parties. This article integrates some linguistic criteria together with time and cost, providing the better conditions to avoid lengthy bargaining.
