摘要: To address the issue of decision support for designing and managing flexible projects systems in face uncertainties, this paper integrates real options valuation, analysis techniques, Monte Carlo simulations evolutionary algorithms an framework. The proposed framework searches optimized portfolio makes adaptive plans to cope with uncertainties as future unfolds. Exemplified through a test case, not only compares favorably traditional fixed design approaches but also delivers considerable improvements over prevailing practices.
