| Abstract |
Modern business systems are becoming more complex over time since the cost and speed of storing and exchanging information is becoming lower and the number of participants is becoming higher. Firms focus on profitable activities that offer a competitive advantage and outsource the others, building profitable cooperation with other firms. Large Systems are created and develop in an environment that is always changing both in requirements and in the number of participants. Therefore we need an intelligent way to analyze them and provide a methodology to estimate and increase the value of the various participants in such dynamic conditions. Furthermore it is necessary to simulate the service system in order to examine its evolution overtime. The simulation results help analysts to detect and improve weaknesses of the network that may lead our system to instability and unprofitability in the future. The constructive co-operation between the participants of the network and the minimization of conflicts of interests among the participants of the network is a crucial part for its viability. In this master thesis we propose a methodology to estimate value in a service network. We calculate the optimal value and simulate the behavior of the network over time, using optimization (excel solver, mathematica) and simulation tools (ithink tool).
