Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleApplication of Markov Chains to Stock TrendsKevin J. Doubleday, Julius N. EsungeProblem statement: Modeling of the Dow Jones Industrial Average is frequently attempted in order to determine trading strategies with maximum payoff. Changes in the DJIA are important since movements may affect both individuals and corporations profoundly. Previous work showed that modeling a market as a random walk was valid and that a market may be viewed as having the Markov … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 18 May 2011 · 8,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparative Analysis of Risk Management Strategies for Additive Manufacturing Supply ChainsBandar Altubaishe, Jahlani Clarke, Christina McWilliams, Salil DesaiSupplier selection is an important strategic decision to be made in additive manufacturing supply chains. This paper presents a hybrid Analytic Hierarchy Process-Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment of Evaluations (AHP-PROMETHEE) algorithms-based Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) for supplier selection in a risk-based environment. Our approach is contrasted with an FMEA based on a Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 8 · 17 Oct 2019 · 8,581 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUse of an Extremely Biodiverse Probiotic and a Supplement Based on Microbial Chondroitin Sulfate is Associated with a Significant Decrease of Serum Free Kappa Light Chains as well as a Trend Toward Normalization of Kappa/Lambda Ratio and of Plasma Cell Bone Marrow Infiltration in a Case of Multiple MyelomaNicola Antonucci, Stefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroWe describe the case of a 71-year-old woman with multiple myeloma associated with severe chronic renal insufficiency who, since October 2018, assumed a novel, extremely biodiverse, probiotic and a supplement based on microbial chondroitin sulfate, vitamin D3 and ultrapure phosphatidylcholine; such a nutritional regimen was associated with a dramatic decrease of serum free Kappa light chains (from 2,190 to a … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2019 · 27,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleREPRESENTING MARKOV CHAINS WITH TRANSITION DIAGRAMSFarida KachapovaStochastic processes have many useful applications and are taught in several university programmes. Students often encounter difficulties in learning stochastic processes and Markov chains, in particular. In this article we describe a teaching strategy that uses transition diagrams to represent a Markov chain and to re-define properties of its states in simple terms of directed graphs. This strategy utilises the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 17 May 2013 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleForecasting Daily Demand in Cash Supply ChainsMichael WagnerProblem statement: Previous studies focused on explaining the long run determinants of currency demand offering limited insight into the short-run determinants and co-variability of daily demand in cash supply chains. Approach: This study contrasted competing techniques of forecasting daily demand in cash supply chains in order to determine the overall performance and the potential of joint forecasting for integrated planning. … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2010 · 7,736 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSegmentation and Recognition of Handwritten Numeric ChainsSalim Ouchtati, Mouldi Bedda, Abderrazak LachouriAutomatic reading of numeric chains has been attempted in several application areas such as bank cheque processing, postal code recognition and form processing. Such applications have been very popular in handwriting recognition research, due to the possibility to reduce considerably the manual effort involved in these tasks. In this study we propose an off line system for the recognition of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the title“OPTIMIZATION OF MULTI-COMMODITIES CONSUMER SUPPLY CHAINS FOR-PART I-MODELING”Zeinab Haji Abolhasani, Romeo M. Marian, Lee LoungThis study and its companions (Part II, Part III) will concentrate on optimizing a class of supply chain problems known as Multi-Commodities Consumer Supply Chain (MCCSC) problem. MCCSC problem belongs to Production-Distribution (P-D) planning category. It aims to determine facilities location, consumers’ allocation and facilities configuration to minimize total Cost (CT) of the entire network. These facilities can be manufacturer … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2013 · 7,840 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProfitability Analysis of Small-Scale Beekeeping Firms by Using Life Cycle Costing (LCC) MethodologyAlfio Strano, Teodora Stillitano, Anna Irene De Luca et al.Increasingly, beekeeping sector attracts attention due to its potentialities linked to several aspects: Environmental benefits, commercial value and of promotion of rural development. Indeed, among the small-scale agro-food chains, beekeeping plays a significant role, especially in rural context, where the diversification of farms activities can be provide a relevant integration of income. However, frequently, apicultural activities are characterized by several … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2015 · 8,366 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReliability of Simple 3-Dimnesional Consecutive k-Out-of-n: F SystemsM. Gharib, E. M. El-Sayed, I.I.H. NashwanProblem statement: In this study, the reliability of some special cases of a 3-dimnesional consecutive k-out-of-n: F system and k-within consecutive (2,2,2) -out-of- (m,2,2): F system were discussed. Approach: The 3 dimensional systems is a generalization of 1 and 2 dimensional, systems. Projections from 3 dimensional systems to 2 or 1 dimension as special cases is very helpful to find … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCreating Improved Models of Business Processes Through Statistical Analysis of Customer Orders with Multiple Types of ComplexityRaschid Ijioui, Heike Emmerich, Jürgen Hubert, Frank SchillerTo gain a better understanding of the internal work processes in service-oriented supply chains, it is very important to design models that are able to realistically describe the components of the supply chain. To meet this goal, it is necessary to find suitable statistical distributions of the processing times for the orders passing the chain. In this article we examine … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
