Advanced Decision Analysis - Term Project
You are part of an infrastructure management team. You are supplied with a data setrepresenting a group of sewer network pipes in two different cities. Such data is usually available in huge volumes, thus require utilizing specially built decision making tools. You individual term project has two interdependent parts:
- Locate and review available material relevant to the set of data. You review should include two main conclusions: 1) what are typical decisions taken while managing this asset and 2) what are decision analysis tools that are being used.
- Propose using one of the decision analysis tools, build a model and apply it to one of the given sets of data. During this actual implementation part, you can extract and use additional data from literature; avoid duplicating work already did.
You work should be justifiable and value adding.
If those two parts are completed sufficiently you will be able to compare your effort to other existing models you read about, and draw valuable conclusions.
Risk assessment tool
Failure prediction
Condition deterioration pattern
A tool for scheduling inspection and/or interventions
Avoid quoting (Mainly do paraphrasing unless one sentence you won't be able to avoid it)
- Locate and review available material relevant to the set of data, the supplied data set representing a group of sewer network pipes in two different cities. (Refer to the attached guidelines for writing)
- Minimum 10 references relevant to the supplied data. (Refer to the guidelines) - Preferably to send me all the 10referrences for confirmation and then you may proceed.
- All references shall be from scholar google. (Use attached articles)
- A comprehensive report (soft and hardcopies) therefore, please submit plagiarism report.
- An abstract shall include the last part which will be done by me (Implementation part).
- introduction - overview of the reviewed literature with conclusions or comments (Conclusion that regression models are the best out of all models, track different models ex. AHP, SIMPLEX, DYNAMIC ETC)
- your model description and your final conclusions (This will be done by me) you will just conclude and comment on the literature review based on the 10 located papers.
