Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Scheduling for Cloud Reliability using Transportation ProblemS. K. Senthil Kumar, P. BalasubramanieProblem statement: Cloud is purely a dynamic environment and the existing task scheduling algorithms are mostly static and considered various parameters like time, cost, make span, speed, scalability, throughput, resource utilization, scheduling success rate and so on. Available scheduling algorithms are mostly heuristic in nature and more complex, time consuming and does not consider reliability and availability of the cloud … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 23 Aug 2012 · 8,340 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOR/MS Applications in Mt. Merapi Disaster ManagementAmril Aman, Toni Bakhtiar, Farida Hanum, Prapto Tri SupriyoProblem statement: Much of researches on the management of disaster deal with their social aspects such as sociological and psychological effects on communities. Recently there had been a growing credit of the demand for application of the operational research and management science matters in disaster management. This approach commonly utilizes decision theory, dynamical system and optimization technique to minimize the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 19 Jun 2012 · 7,039 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Genetic Algorithm for Scheduling n Jobs on a Single Machine with a Stochastic Controllable Processing, Tooling Cost and Earliness-Tardiness PenaltiesMohamed Ali Abdel-Fattah MansourProblem statement: In this research, we addressed the problem of minimizing the earliness-tardiness penalties and manufacturing costs of a single machine with a stochastic controllable processing and tooling cost. Approach: We developed a mathematical non-linear integer programming model and its linearised version to find the optimal solution. We introduced a new genome representation in single machine scheduling literature that evolved … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving the Periodic Maintenance Scheduling Problem via Genetic Algorithm to Balance Workforce Levels and Maintenance CostMohamed Ali Abdel-Fattah MansourProblem statement: In this article we address the multi-objective Periodic Maintenance Scheduling Problem (PMSP) of scheduling a set of cyclic maintenance operations for a given set of machines through a specified planning period to minimize the total variance of workforce levels measured in man-hours and maintenance costs with equal weights. Approach: The article proposed a mixed integer non-linear math programming … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 12 Jul 2011 · 8,322 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeighted Centroid Modified Simplex and Linear Constrained Response Surface Optimization Methods for the Xbar-R Chart Variable DeterminationPongchanun LuangpaiboonProblem statement: Although economic Xbar-R chart designs do guarantee the minimal operating cost, they typically have poor levels of statistical performance measures. The obvious limitation of the economic design is that the Type I error rate seems to be very high for many situations and will cause a large number of false alarms. This situation leads to an investigation of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPeriodic Review Probabilistic Multi-Item Inventory System with Zero Lead Time under Constraint and Varying Holding CostNaglaa Hassan El-SodanyProblem statement: This study treats the probabilistic safety stock n-items inventory system having varying holding cost and zero lead-time subject to linear constraint. Approach: The expected total cost is composed of three components: the average purchase cost; the expected order cost and the expected holding cost. Results: The policy variables for this model are the number of periods N*r and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 7,526 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLinear Genetic Programming for Prediction of Nickel Recovery from Spent Nickel CatalystMona E. Ossman, Walaa Sheta, Y. EltaweelProblem statement: In this study Linear Genetic Programming (LGP) and statistical regression are used in predicting Current Efficiency (CE) of Electro deposition cell used for recovery of nickel from spent nickel catalyst. Approach: The Nickel electro deposition from spent catalyst leachate solutions was studied to determine the effect of the operative conditions such as nickel concentration, temperature, current density and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation the Substitution Capability of Oilseeds in Cropping PatternMahmoud Daneshvar Kakhki, S. Youssefzade, Hamideh Ghodrati AzadiProblem statement: Farm activity is a risky activity special in less developed countries, so all decisions and activities are affected by this phenomenon. Consideration of risk either helps to elimination of deviations in result of model or preparing tools for evolution of some policies that the aim of them is reducing the risk for farmers. Oil seed are the second … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Determination of Optimal Crop Pattern with Aim of Reduction in Hazards of EnvironmentalMahmoud Daneshvar Kakhki, Nasser Sahnoushi, F. Salehi Reza AbadiProblem statement: The purpose of the study was to find the optimal cropping pattern, in Taybad, which maximizes the net return per water cubic meter and per fertilizer kilogram. Approach: A linear programming model and a fuzzy multi-objective fractional programming model were applied and then these models were compared. Results: Result of study showed ratio of net return into consumption … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Predictability of Risk Box Approach by Genetic Programming Method for Bankruptcy PredictionAlireza Bahiraie, Noor Akma bt Ibrahim, A. K.M. AzharProblem statement: Theoretical based data representation is an important tool for model selection and interpretations in bankruptcy analysis since the numerical representation are much less transparent. Some methodological problems concerning financial ratios such as non-proportionality, non-asymetricity, non-scalicity are solved in this study and we presented a complementary technique for empirical analysis of financial ratios and bankruptcy risk. Approach: This study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,953 accessesView PDFCite
