ILLUSTRATIVE SCENARIO Sample Clauses

ILLUSTRATIVE SCENARIO. The following example scenario is based on the case study of the DecoCHina Swiss- Chinese multicultural CNO. Basically, the DecoCHina CNO consists of two independent networks, the Swiss Microtech regional network (SMT) and a Chinese network located in the Guangdong province, which have their own activities and collaborate on specific orders when it brings a competitive advantage for their customers (Figure 6). Customer Connection Customer- VO One interlocutor Virtual Organisation Built for an order Swiss regional network : Swiss Microtech DecoCHina network Chinese regional network Folie 1 Figure 6 – The DecoCHina CNO Before starting commercial operations, the following business processes between the two networks have been defined: request for quotation (1), order management (2), and delivery (3). The request for quotation process will be here analyzed in more details to show where a negotiation support tool is required to reduce the delays which are far too long when only traditional communication methods are used (~15 working days to get a quotation). As shown in Figure 7, the first activity of this business process is the request for quotation (2.1) addressed by SMT to the Chinese partner network. This request contains the drawings (dimensions, tolerances, surface quality, and material), the quantities and the corresponding delivery schedules. The second activity (2.2) is the selection of the potential partners within the Chinese network which could participate in a possible order and which must first give their prices and delivery schedules.

ILLUSTRATIVE SCENARIO. On a rainy Saturday morning in Lyon, a student’s usual plan is to do homework in the public local library. At 09:00, the “homework plan" prescribed in the student’s smartphone shall be automatically set. One of the actions to be performed in the “homework plan" is “take a means of transportation". This action needs a service composition to recommend a means of transportation for the student (Fig. 1). We consider that the student prefers cycling because it is much faster as it allows avoiding traffic jams, while in cold or rainy days, it is more convenient to take a public transport (bus, tram, metro) in urban areas. The Web application provides our user with a recommendation of the nearest means of transportation (bike or public transport), taking into account the (i) user’s GPS location, the (ii) ambient temperature, and (iii) information about public transport stations and bike stands. GPS Weather Transportation Recommender Station Finder Figure 1: Flow of Services in the Smart City Scenario The application relies on a composite service, as illustrated in Fig. 1, which combines the following atomic services from different providers : • GPS : provides the position of the user (Long., Lat.). • Weather : provides the weather condition and temperature according the user’s current position. • TransportationRecommender : recommends a means of transportation for the user. For the sake of simplicity, this service simply recommends a public transport in bad weather or biking if appropriate. • StationFinder : Finds the name of the nearest station based on the recommended means of transportation and the user’s GPS position. We consider that atomic services are provided as follows : • GPS is provided by the phone’s embedded sensor, • Weather service (temperature only) is provided by (i) the user’s smartphone, (ii) a weather API, and (iii) an ambient temperature sensor located somewhere in the city. • TransportationRecommender and StationFinder are RESTful Web services. This illustrative scenario is simple enough to be particularly suited to dealing with several aspects of our problem. We use it to motivate our multi-agent vision and to explore the various barriers to realizing this vision. Real world scenarios involve more users, devices, and constraints.

  • JOC - PRICING OF After Hours Coefficient What is your after hours coefficient for the RS Means Price Book for work performed after normal working hours? (FAILURE TO RESPOND PROHIBITS PART 2 JOC EVALUATION) Remember that this is a ceiling price proposed. You can discount to any TIPS Member customer a lower coefficient than your proposed contract coefficient, but not higher. This is one of three pricing questions that are required for consideration for award on this solicitation. Please consider your answer carefully. An explanation of the TIPS scoring of pricing titled "Pricing Coefficient Instruction" is included in the attachments for your information. The below is an EXAMPLE of how the pricing model works (It is not intended to influence your proposed coefficient, you should propose a coefficient that you determine is reasonable for your business for the life of the contract): The most common after hours coefficient is time and a half of the RS Means Unit Price Book prices. To illustrate this coefficient, if your regular hours coefficient is .95, your after hours coefficient would be 1.45.
