RIGSS — Inverse Generative Social Science using R (2024)
Journal Article
Chesney, T., Pasley, R., & Jaffer, M. A. (2024). RIGSS — Inverse Generative Social Science using R. Software Impacts, 21, Article 100689. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.simpa.2024.100689

We present RIGSS, software that can be used to run an Inverse Generative Social Science study in R. We give a brief overview of this research method and explain how our software can be used. We implement a Hawk Dove game as an executable example. We... Read More about RIGSS — Inverse Generative Social Science using R.

Group decision support for product lifecycle management (2020)
Journal Article
Pasley, R. C., & MacCarthy, B. L. (2021). Group decision support for product lifecycle management. International Journal of Production Research, 59(16), 5050-5067. https://doi.org/10.1080/00207543.2020.1779372

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems support industrial organizations in managing their product portfolios and related data across all phases of the product lifecycle. PLM seeks to enhance an organization's ability to manage its product develop... Read More about Group decision support for product lifecycle management.

Investigating behavioural and computational approaches for defining imprecise regions (2018)
Journal Article
Twaroch, F. A., Brindley, P., Clough, P. D., Jones, C. B., Pasley, R. C., & Mansbridge, S. (2019). Investigating behavioural and computational approaches for defining imprecise regions. Spatial Cognition and Computation, 19(2), 146-171. https://doi.org/10.1080/13875868.2018.1531871

People often communicate with reference to informally agreed places, such as ‘the city centre’. However, views of the spatial extent of such areas may vary and result in imprecise regions. We compare perceptions of Sheffield’s City Centre from a stre... Read More about Investigating behavioural and computational approaches for defining imprecise regions.

Decisions as Units of Organisational Knowledge to Manage Complexity (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pasley, R., & macCarthy, B. L. (2016). Decisions as Units of Organisational Knowledge to Manage Complexity. In Information Systems Architecture and Technology: Proceedings of 36th International Conference on Information Systems Architecture and Technology – ISAT 2015 – Part III (153-161). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-28564-1_13

Effective decision making can help organizations to manage complexity. Here we argue that considering decisions as units of organizational knowledge and providing a means for decision storage, retrieval and reuse can facilitate effective decision mak...

Group Decision Support and Social Software Techniques for PLM Decision Making (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pasley, R., & MaCarthy, B. (2013). Group Decision Support and Social Software Techniques for PLM Decision Making

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is a common concern in industry. The whole cycle view allows faster product development with more control of risks and processes. Through PLM quality and effectiveness of product development and planning can be impr... Read More about Group Decision Support and Social Software Techniques for PLM Decision Making.
