Ordered weighted averaging. In applied mathematics, specifically in fuzzy logic, the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators provide a parameterized class of mean type aggregation operators. They were introduced by Ronald R. Yager. [1] [2] Many notable mean operators such as the max, arithmetic average, median and min, are members of this class.

The general group problem solving model ( GGPS model) is a problem solving methodology, in which a group of individuals will define the desired outcome, identify the gap between the current state and the target and generate ideas for closing the gap by brainstorming. The result is list of actions needed to achieve the desired results.
Konopasek's goal in inventing the TK Solver concept was to create a problem solving environment in which a given mathematical model built to solve a specific problem could be used to solve related problems (with a redistribution of input and output variables) with minimal or no additional programming required: once a user enters an equation, TK ...
Problem-solving therapy (PST) is a form of psychotherapy. It may help you develop coping skills to manage upsetting life experiences. “It’s the notion of focusing on the problem in the moment ...
Problem solving is the process of achieving a goal by overcoming obstacles, a frequent part of most activities. Problems in need of solutions range from simple personal tasks (e.g. how to turn on an appliance) to complex issues in business and technical fields. The former is an example of simple problem solving (SPS) addressing one issue ...
Method. SARA consists of four stages: [3] Scanning: The officer identifies an issue and determines if it represents a problem that needs to be addressed. Analysis: The officer collects information about the problem from various sources to understand the causes and scope of the problem. Response: The officer uses the information to create and ...
