“…Brown and Gibson (1972) employ three principles in order to ensure that the objective factor measure is compatible with the subjective factor measure: (1) the software architecture pattern with the highest cost will have the minimum OFM i ; (2) the relationship of OFC i for each pattern relative to all other patterns is preserved; and (3) the sum of all OFM i is equal to 1. The subjective factor measure SFM i is defined as follows:…”

Our work aims at providing support for the decision-making processes involved in the model-driven development of information technology (IT) solutions for cross-organizational business process (CBP) coordination and automation. The objective of the work described in this paper is to provide enterprise IT architects with an evaluation and decision model that enables the principled assessment and selection of an effective IT architecture paradigm (e.g. central broker, federated brokers, peer-to-peer) for a given cross-organizational business process coordination task. Our approach follows the principles of design science; the contribution of this paper is threefold: First, we present three common architectural patterns for (service-oriented) CBP coordination. Second, the core contribution is established by a new method for decision support suitable for IT architects to derive and evaluate an appropriate architecture paradigm for a given use case or application domain. The method is accompanied by a set of representative scenario descriptions that allow the evaluation and selection of appropriate IT system coordination architecture paradigms for CBP enactment, as well as a set of guidelines for how different contingencies influence IT system coordination architecture.

“…This makes use of pair-comparison and preference theory (Fascal, 1965). One such method is that of Brown-Gibson (Brown and Gibson, 1972;Lipovatz-Kremezi, 2003) which is based on the following four assumptions: a the areas that do not fulfil certain basic standards are discarded b for each quantitative factor, an objective criterion (AK i ) is set upon which the objective criterion for each site i is being assessed.…”

“…These purchases and interventions are necessary to upgrade the two buildings in each environment from the viewpoint of ecological behaviour (friendly to user) as well as to be in line with the allowable limits imposed by the state legislation. The Brown-Gibson model (Brown and Gibson, 1972;Lipovatz-Kremezi, 2003), that has been selected, uses for its input the costs for the technical installations, interventions and equipment. It is a technique for integrating qualitative and quantitative criteria in decision making.…”

This research work focuses on the definition of the factors that determine the selection of residence site in urban and rural areas in Greece. The followed approach is based on an analysis that takes into account the nature and the peculiarities of the problem studied and it is built around a multiple-criteria methodology with reference to objective and subjective criteria, which constitute the quantitative and qualitative parameters of the system, respectively. The evaluation of the importance of each parameter separately, of each group of criteria and the total number of criteria (objective and subjective) for each area is attempted to define the final result (preference measure or priority) for the selection of residence site in urban and rural environments in Greece.Research findings provide indications that can lead to important conclusions and contribute to the development of policy proposals not only in Greece but also at international level with regard to the issues of: selection of location and residence, regional development, decentralisation as well as the study of the non-homogeneous and in-balanced development of urban and rural areas.

“…The Brown-Gibson model [14] was developed for evaluating alternate plant locations using certain objective and subjective factors. It is a quantitative model, which helps in selecting the best location from a given set of alternatives.…”
