Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Efficiency Measurement of Parallel Production Systems: A Non-radial Data Envelopment Analysis ModelAli Ashrafi, Azmi Bin Jaafar, Mohd Rizam Abu Bakar, Lai Soon LeeProblem statement: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric technique for measuring the relative efficiency of a set of production systems or Decision Making Units (DMU) that have multiple inputs and outputs. Sometimes, DMUs have a parallel structure, in which systems composed of parallel units work individually; the sum of their own inputs/outputs is the input/output of the system. For … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 9,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Enhanced Russell Measure of Super-Efficiency for Ranking Efficient Units in Data Envelopment AnalysisAli Ashrafi, Azmi Bin Jaafar, Lai Soon Lee, Mohd Rizam Abu BakarProblem statement: Conventional Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) helps decision makers to discriminate between efficient and inefficient Decision Making Units (DMUs). However, DEA does not provide more information about the efficient DMUs. Super-efficiency DEA model can be used in ranking the performance of efficient DMUs. Because of the possible infeasibility of radial super-efficiency DEA model, the ranking has been limited to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBenchmarking in the Academic Departments using Data Envelopment AnalysisMohammad Mahallati Rayeni, Faranak Hosseinzadeh SaljooghiProblem statement: The purpose of this study is to analyze efficiency and benchmarking using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in departments of University. Benchmarking is a process of defining valid measures of performance comparison among peer decision making units (DMUs), using them to determine the relative positions of the peer DMUs and, ultimately, establishing a standard of excellence. Approach: DEA can … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 7,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Emerging Consumer Culture in Bangladesh: Everyday Life and Festivals in Rural AreasMd. Motaher HossainProblem statement: Bangladesh, often better known to the outside world as a country of natural calamities, is a poor and low-income country. Bangladesh’s main challenge is to reduce poverty through increasing equitable income. Although Bangladesh has faced many problems since its independence in 1971, its gross domestic product has been growing steadily and the country has achieved much success in … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 9,208 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalytic Performability Model of Vertical Handoff in Wireless NetworksGowrishankar, G. N. Sekhar, P. S. SatyanarayanaProblem statement: The next generation wireless systems should be designed to support heterogeneous traffic with seamless mobility. A single network alone cannot cope up with such heterogeneous requirements. Hence it is desirable to interoperate between diverse and complementary Radio Access Technologies (RATs). In such system, user will switch between different Radio Access Technologies (RATs) to satisfy the User/application requirement and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,230 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUse of the Chi-square Test to Determine Significance of Cumulative Antibiogram DataRocco J. Perla, James CarifioAn important function of a hospital’s Infectious Disease and Pharmacy programs is to review and compare the most recent antibiogram with that of the previous year to determine if significant changes in antibiotic susceptibility results are noted and to communicate this information and its consequences to the medical staff. However, there are currently no formal analytical (decision-making) models in use … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,279 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Popular Fuzzy-TOPSIS as the Main Method for Decision Model: An Object-Driven Model for Bibliometric-Based Literature ReviewDitdit Nugeraha UtamaFuzzy logic serves as a computational modeling method, particularly prominent in the research domain of decision models. To assess the prevalent trends in the utilization of fuzzy logic in the research landscape of decision models and its common combinations with other methods, a conceptual model for article review was developed. This study involved three simple stages: Bibliometric analysis, article review … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 11 · 11 Sep 2024 · 4,811 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Laboratory Study of Curiosity Behavior in Feedback-Based DecisionsTakemi FujikawaProblem statement: This study adopts an interdisciplinary approach in conducting the study on "curiosity" with a toolset of experimental economics. Approach: I hypothesized that the Decision Makers (DMs) tended to exhibit curiosity behavior when two conditions were met: (1) The DMs faced "small feedback-based" decision problems; (2) The DMs bore tangible costs of their curiosity behavior. Results: This study was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,461 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRISK ANALYSIS IN CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS: A PRACTICAL SELECTION METHODOLOGYAlberto De Marco, Muhammad Jamaluddin ThaheemProject Risk Management (PRM) is gaining attention from researchers and practitioners in the form of sophisticated tools and techniques to help construction managers perform risk management. However, the large variety of techniques has made selecting an appropriate solution a complex and risky task in itself. Accordingly, this study proposes a practical framework methodology to assist construction project managers and practitioners … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 28 Nov 2013 · 9,193 accessesView PDFCite
