Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMulti-Product Multi-Constraint Inventory Control Systems with Stochastic Replenishment and Discount under Fuzzy Purchasing Price and Holding CostsAta Allah Taleizadeh, Seyed Taghi Akhavan Niaki, Mir-Bahador AryanezhadWhile in multi-periodic inventory control problems the usual assumption are that the orders are placed at the beginning of each period (periodic review) or depending on the inventory level they can happen at any time (continuous review), in this research, we relax these assumptions and assume that the periods between two replenishments of the products are independent and identically distributed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,087 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTwo Mathematical Modeling Approaches for Integrating Production and Transportation Decisions in the Process IndustryMohamed K. Omar, A. AjithaIn this study we focus on coordination of the production planning of finished products and intermediate products in the process industry. The problem consists of two manufacturing facilities with similar production environment, one producing the intermediates and the other producing end products that are separated by a distance. There is transportation between the facilities. The problem considered has been formulated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,523 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHydropower System Management Considering the Minimum OutflowM. L. Arganis, R. DomínguezThis paper deals with the operating rules of the Grijalva River hydropower serial system obtained by means of stochastic dynamic programming and its subsequent simulation using historical records and synthetic series. Penalties in spills and deficit were considered in optimum policies. During simulation several restrictions were added to the original problem, particularly to ensure minimum outflow so as to guarantee … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMINLP Optimization of Mechanical StructuresS. Šilih, T. Žula, Z. Kravanja, S. KravanjaWe presented optimization of mechanical structures, performed by the Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) optimization approach. The MINLP is a combined continuous/discrete optimization technique, where a structural topology and standard/discrete sizes are optimized simultaneously with the continuous variables. Ddiscrete binary 0-1 variables were used to express the discrete decisions. For solution of this non-linear, continuous/discrete and non-convex MINLP class of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,129 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCost Optimization of Composite I Beam Floor SystemUroš Klanšek, Stojan KravanjaThe paper presents the cost optimization of the composite I beam floor system. The composite I beam floor system is designed to be constructed up of a reinforced concrete slab and doubly-symmetrical welded steel I beams. The optimization was performed by the nonlinear programming approach, NLP. An accurate objective function of the manufacturing material, power and labour costs was developed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimization Based Heuristic Approaches for Solving an Integrated One-dimensional Cutting Stock-Transportation ProblemSirirat Wongprakornkul, Peerayuth CharnsethikulIn this work, the integration of the one-dimensional cutting stock problem with multiple cutting facilities and the transportation problem was formulated mathematically as a large-scale discrete optimization problem. Benders partitioning approach and the column-generation technique with the direct method and the proposed heuristic method for solving corresponding integer programming (IP) were developed into three approaches and were used to solve … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,744 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Efficient Algorithm for Capacitated Multifacility Location ProblemsChansiri Singhtaun, Peerayuth CharnsethikulIn this paper, a squared-Euclidean distance multifacility location problem with inseparable demands under balanced transportation constraints is analyzed. Using calculus to project the problem onto the space of allocation variables, the problem becomes minimizing concave quadratic integer programming problem. The algorithm based on extreme point ranking method combining with logical techniques is developed. The numerical experiments are randomly generated to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 6,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordspmonpp: Pthread Monitor PreprocessorJinhua GuoMonitors have become an exceedingly important synchronization mechanism because they are a natural generalization of the object-oriented programming. A monitor construct encapsulates private data with public methods to operate on that data. Although the Pthread library contains dozens of functions for threading and synchronization, it does not provide direct support for the monitor. Students must explicitly provide mutual exclusion around … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Discrete Optimization Description for the Solutions in the Matching ProblemWalied H. SharifThis study was concerned with the characterization of solutions in the matching problem. The general mixed-integer programming problem is given together with the definition of the convex hull of the integer solutions. In addition, the matching problem is defined as an integer problem and an algorithm is described to find the optimum matchings. Some illustrative examples are introduced to clarify … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDevelopment of Integrated Production Scheduling System in the Process IndustryMohamed K. Omar, Yasothei A.P. Suppiah, Siew C. TeoThis study introduces a three-level hierarchical production planning and scheduling approach developed and implemented in a resin factory. Our approach proposes at the first level a mixed-integer linear programming for solving the aggregate planning model. At the second level, a weighted-integer goal-programming model is developed to disaggregate the developed aggregate plans. A sequencing algorithm is developed for the third level … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,867 accessesView PDFCite
