Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMaintenance and Evolution Processes of Embedded Software: A Systematic Literature ReviewAloysio Augusto Rabello de Carvalho, Luiz Eduardo Galvão MartinsThe relevance of embedded systems has increased considerably due to industrial automation and the adoption of IoT and medical devices. This process demands the adaptation of software engineering techniques that involve the maintenance and evolution of software for use in embedded systems. We conducted this Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to investigate the state of the art on the topics of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 7 · 17 Jul 2025 · 3,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleData Preparation in Machine Learning for Condition-based MaintenanceOns Masmoudi, Mehdi Jaoua, Amel Jaoua, Soumaya YacoutUsing Machine Learning (ML) prediction to achieve a successful, cost-effective, Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) strategy has become very attractive in the context of Industry 4.0. In other fields, it is well known that in order to benefit from the prediction capability of ML algorithms, the data preparation phase must be well conducted. Thus, the objective of this paper is to investigate … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 6 · 4 Jun 2021 · 8,412 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBeyond Accidents: A Back-Analysis on Conveyor Belt Injury for a Better Design for Maintenance OperationsAlberto Martinetti, Leo A.M. van Dongen, Raffaele RomanoThe conveyor belt represents one of the most commonly used methods of transporting bulk materials today. As highlighted multiple times in research, the moving parts are a critical issue causing accidents and injuries and several of these are strictly related to the opportunity to enter in working zones during maintenance activities, considered high-risk activity due to the nature of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2016 · 8,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Hybrid Decision-Making Model for Maintenance Prioritization in Health Care SystemsHassana Mahfoud, Abdellah El Barkany, Ahmed El BiyaaliClinical engineering departments have to establish and continuously regulate a Medical Equipment Management Program (MEMP) to ensure a high reliability and safety of their critical medical devices. Asset criticality assessment is an essential element of reliability centered maintenance and risk-based maintenance, especially when enormous various devices exist and the worst failure consequences are not evident. This paper presents a new … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 28 Apr 2016 · 8,678 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCOST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF A SINGLE UNIT SYSTEM WITH SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE AND VARIATION IN DEMANDGulshan Taneja, Reetu MalhotraThe present paper analyses the reliability and cost-benefit for a single unit system with scheduled maintenance and variation in demand. As Change in demand affects the production of system also, hence sometimes, the system needs to be shut down when the number of produces are in excess as compared to those demanded. Revenue in case of both types of up … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 30 May 2013 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReliability Centered Maintenance in Schedule Improvement of Automotive Assembly IndustryRizauddin Ramli, Mohammad Nizam ArffinProblem statement: Today, in many automotive manufacturing companies, maintenance management is an important factor to maintain the plant operation and production equipments. Approach: In this study, we present an implementation of Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) practice in one of the automotive manufacturing company in Malaysia. The RCM practice was used to assist the company in focusing their maintenance activities based … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 27 Jun 2012 · 7,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Common Maintenance Methods for Flexible PavementsAsma T. Ibraheem, Suda M. GaniProblem statement: With the increasing use and awareness of pavement management systems and the growing emphasis on asset management of pavement infrastructure, it is important to strengthen the maintenance components of these systems and particularly the preventive maintenance component. Iraqi Roads don’t receive an effective and proper maintenance during their service life until they reach the state of major failure … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 29 Nov 2011 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCoverage Eligibility Rule based Coverage Maintenance Protocol for Energy Conservation in Wireless Sensor NetworksA. Balamurugan, T. PurushothamanProblem statement: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) comprise of small nodes with sensing, computation and wireless communication capabilities. Nodes in a sensor network are severely constrained by energy and computing power. Continuous working of sensor nodes leads to quick depletion of battery power and reduces the overall lifetime. To prolong the lifetime of the sensor nodes, efficient routing protocol that could … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 6 Aug 2011 · 6,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSolving 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 · 8,317 accessesView PDFCite
