Since the publication of the Bass model in 1969, innovation of new diffusion theory has sparked considerable research among marketing science scholars, operational researchers and mathematicians. This study considers the Bass Model for forecasting the diffusion of new products or an … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2013 · 7,810 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessNeural Network in Modeling Malaysian Oil Palm YieldZuhaimy Ismail, Azme KhamisProblem statement: Forecasting of palm oil yield has become an important element in the management of oil palm industry for proper planning and decision making. The importance of yield forecasting has led us to explore modeling of palm oil yield for Malaysia using the most recent development of Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The main issue in yield forecasting is to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 8,581 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessImplementation Weather-Type Models of Capacitated Arc Routing Problem via HeuristicsZuhaimy Ismail, Mohammad Fadzli RamliProblem statement: In this study, we introduced a new and real-life condition of Capacitated Arc Routing Problem (CARP), a model that represents vehicle’s operation in waste collection. In general, we studied the element of rain drops that affected the collected waste weight in total by imposed a new variable namely rainy weight age. In rainy days, the household refusals did … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,272 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessModeling of Multi-Level Capacitated Lot-Size Scheduling ProblemZuhaimy Ismail, Diyana Abd Mahad, Tan Siew ChingProblem statement: Lot-size is the clustering of items for transportation or manufacturing processes occurring at the same time. The issue in lot-size problem is to design production processes so that the feasible production quantities are equal to customer demand quantities and the timing of production is such that inventory positions are almost zero. Approach: In this study, we explore the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,322 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessTraveling Salesman Approach for Solving Petrol Distribution Using Simulated AnnealingZuhaimy Ismail, Wan Rohaizad Wan IbrahimThis research presents an attempt to solve a logistic company's problem of delivering petrol to petrol station in the state of Johor. This delivery system is formulated as a travelling salesman problem (TSP). TSP involves finding an optimal route for visiting stations and returning to point of origin, where the inter-station distance is symmetric and known. This real world application … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,196 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessNonlinear Growth Models for Modeling Oil Palm Yield GrowthAzme Khamis, Zuhaimy Ismail, khalid Haron, Ahmad Tarmizi MohammedThis study provided the basic needs of parameters estimation for nonlinear growth model such as partial derivatives of each model, determination of initial values for each parameter and statistical tests of industrial usage. Twelve nonlinear growth models and its partial derivatives for oil palm yield growth are presented in this study. The parameters are estimated using the Marquardt iterative method … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 15,113 accessesView PDF Cite
