Abstract

The contribution deals with a class of intelligent decentralized systems that are marked by the possibility of arising critical situations. The work starts from the elaboration of an overall methodology dedicated to the discovery of crises and support of anti-crisis activities. Then the case of transportation enterprise support system is discussed in detail. A simulation study of anti-crisis management in such a system concludes the work.

This work was partially sponsored by State Committee for Scientific Research (KBN) grant no. 3 T11C 025 27.
