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...

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 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...

The application of decomposition and condensation algorithms to the logical design of resource planning and management (RPM) networks

Creator:: Chen, Kuei-Lin
Abstract:: Resource Planning and Management (RPM) network is a graphical representation of input-output relationships among activities and resources within a system. Both resources (events) and activities (decisions) are explicitly represented as nodes in all RPM networks. Depending upon the relationships being depicted, RPM networks can be classified into Relational (R), Precedence...

Multi-factor information theory models and their industrial applications

Creator:: Shirland, Larry Elwyn
Abstract:: This dissertation treats information theory and its applications to the general area of decision making. Specifically, three areas are covered; (1) information theory applied to Bayesian analysis, (2) estimation using multi-factor information channel models, and (3) information theory applied to Markov chain analysis. A major portion of this dissertation concerns...

Implementation of revised simplex Thompson algorithm on a limited core stand alone processor

Creator:: Chakravarty, Jyotirmoy
Abstract:: This thesis presents a linear programming package that uses an algorithm and data storage method efficient enough to solve a medium sized linear programming problem (250 variables and 100 constraints) on a minicomputer with small core memory space (4000 bytes). In this routine the problem is formulated by the use...

Some analytical techniques for improving resource allocation in a university system

Creator:: Ghaffari, Ebrahim
Abstract:: Some of the problems concerning the present educational programs which confront the institutions of higher education are, reviewed. Resources allocation is at the root of the issue. Budgeting orientations are presented with special emphasis on Planning Programming Budgeting Systems. PPBS is still in its developmental stage in the field of...

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...

An application of one-factor and two-factor information channel models to marketing research problems

Creator:: Shirland, Larry Elwyn
Abstract:: This thesis presents an introduction to Marketing Research concepts, relates Operations Research to Marketing Research and discusses the limitations of each. An Information Theory approach based on Shannon's fundamental theorems and extended by Kunisawa is applied to one-factor and two-factor marketing problems. The objective of one-factor information channel models is...
