Analysis of the main approaches to modeling management processes for special-purpose organizational and technical systems by A. V. Melnikov, A. A. Karavaev, A. O. Zheleznyakov

“…In the course of reviewing and analyzing the main approaches to modeling management processes for special-purpose organizational and technical systems, the following tasks were solved: a preliminary systematization of the available data on the features of the development of management decision-making models was carried out; a comparative analysis of these models was carried out, during which it was established that most of the developed models can only be applicable in certain subject areas, which significantly limits their universality; have a labor-intensive procedure for processing source data; turn out to be insufficiently adaptive to rapidly changing conditions.Conclusion. …”
