Applications of microprocessors in work measurement

Creator:: Blanco-Duran, Rodolfo
Abstract:: The main objective of this thesis is to investigate the microprocessor's potentials to improve the productivity of Industrial Engineers engaged in work design and measurement. More exactly, the following four hypotheses were proposed and investigated: (1) A Universal Time Data (UTD) structure could be used to accommodate a variety of...

Minimum cost scheduling of resource constrained jobs on parallel machines under control of interchangeable processors

Creator:: Ng, George Kwok Wing
Abstract:: A special case of a parallel multiprocessor scheduling (MP) problem is investigated. A set of jobs with a known process time and a.resource requirement is scheduled on machines controlled by processors,and the total changeover cost between jobs is to be minimized. Each processor may control up to two machines and...

A general linear optimization algorithm based upon labeling and factorizing of basic paths on RPM network

Creator:: Stavrakis, George D.
Abstract:: A new method is developed for solving linear optimization problems based on the RPM network modeling technique which represents the primal and the corresponding dual models simultaneously upon a single graph. The network structure is used to eliminate the need for explicit logical variables and to provide a graphic tool...

A matrix game approach to linear programming

Creator:: Park, Tongkyu
Abstract:: It is the hope and expectation of many specialists in the area of linear programming that a major improvement in solution techniques for handling large-scale models with thousands of constraints will be developed in the near future. Although the present state of the art for solving linear programs is still...

Development of network location algorithm for resource planning and management

Creator:: Miyakawa, Yoshihiro
Abstract:: Algorithms capable of automatically drawing Resource Planning and Management (RPM) network models from standard Linear Programming data files are developed. An RPM network is a unique graphical representation that is capable of representing both the primal and the dual model of a mathematical programming problem on a same network model....

Development of an information processing capacity estimation method for managing a project subjected to disruptions

Creator:: Ro, In Kyu
Abstract:: This dissertation is an attempt at developing a method for the analysis and estimation of the effects of disruptions due to uncertainties. Such uncertainties may result from design changes and engineering drawing delays in large-scale, complex, research and development, or construction projects. In order to provide management with a simple...

Multiperiod multiple-item dynamic lot sizing problem when discounts are available

Creator:: Chang, Chia-hao
Abstract:: This thesis extends Wagner-Whitin's Planning Horizon Theorem to discount situations in multiperiod multiple-item dynamic lot sizing problems. Three heuristic techniques are developed using the Least Unit Cost Method, Silver-Meal Method, and Inoue-Chang Method. The three techniques are described and compared in terms of their effectiveness in dealing with the dynamic...

A discrete multi-facility location analysis of a public sector office siting problem

Creator:: Ryan, John Vincent
Abstract:: A discrete multi-facility plant location algorithm developed by Basheer Khumawala is modified and applied to the location analysis of offices of the State of Oregon Health Facilities Licensing and Certification Section (HFLC). Choice of the algorithm is based upon a literature survey of available computational procedures which compares their relative...

Risk management in particleboard production system design : a simulation study of the stochastic optimization problem

Creator:: Velazquez, Sergio Serrano
Abstract:: Effects of stochastic variations of parameters in the planning and design of a particleboard production system are studied. The solution obtained from a linear deterministic optimization model is compared against both the solution derived from the traditional stochastic programming techniques and the distribution of optimal objective function values obtained from...

Extending the planning capability of zerobase and flexible budgeting through the use of RPM networks and optimization techniques

Creator:: Lomelin-Zarate, Jose David
Abstract:: The viability of incorporating optimization within budgeting methodologies is examined. Resource Planning and Management System and optimization are proposed as tools to enhance the planning and control functions of the budgeting process. Three hypotheses are proposed: (1) Integer Programming, Integer Goal Programming and Dynamic Programming can be substituted in place...
