  • An evaluation of alternative approaches for the computation of order quantities and reorder points

    Creator:
    Puranmalka, Krishna Gopal
    Abstract:
    Every inventory system requires answers to two basic questions: when to order and how much to order. In this paper we have described and compared four alternate methods for obtaining the answers for these two questions. Four different types of demand distribution during the lead time are considered: normal, exponential,...

  • Development of a system for man-machine experimentation

    Creator:
    Asselbergs, Christophe K. J.
    Abstract:
    Adapting man, as an organic link, to closed loop control systems, is increasingly presenting problems to designers of systems of any nature. Performance of the human in the systems is dependent upon a multitude of recognized factors, and many as yet unknown factors and variables. In order to investigate the...

  • Perspectives : academic research management

    Creator:
    Bahram, Borhan
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this investigation is to explore research management problems pertaining to types of research where direct outputs are in terms of intangible ideas or the kind of knowledge which takes years to be proven applicable or economically fruitful. The study was based on the analysis of the more...

  • Regression based time standards for fish filleting

    Creator:
    Faruqui, Salahuddin
    Abstract:
    In this study the ability of establishing time standards using the technique of regression analysis is demonstrated. Numerical standards are developed for fish filleting operations which are satisfactory for practical use by the seafood processing management. For the analysis non-experimental or historical fillet data was obtained from two seafood processors...

  • Plant layout for rehabilitation centers : a case study and general considerations

    Creator:
    Ingle, Jayant T.
    Abstract:
    This paper approaches the problem of arranging facilities and moving materials in a sheltered workshop, or rehabilitation center, employing handicapped people. Traditional plant layout and material handling principles, along with human engineering principles, are used for developing a layout for Open Door Incorporated, a sheltered workshop located in Corvallis, Oregon....

  • An RPM network approach to the integration of the accounting information system and the linear programming decision model

    Creator:
    Dumon, Jozef M.
    Abstract:
    network technique as a common tool of communication between the information user (e. g. manager, accountant) and the model builder or management scientist as well as between the systems analystprogrammer and the management scientist is examined. The premise is that the discrepancy between an information system and a decision model...

  • Performance evaluation and design of multiple time series based forecasting systems

    Creator:
    Chen, Kuei-Lin
    Abstract:
    The study evaluates performances of three multiple time series (MTS) forecasting methods; investigates possible improvements in MTS forecasting operations, and proposes a multiple time series based forecasting system. Time series considered are finite, linear, covariance stationary, and discrete. Specific objectives for the thesis were: (a) conducting comparative studies of MTS...

  • Minimum-cost multi-item coordinated ordering models with dependent set up cost

    Creator:
    Kim, Jae Yearn
    Abstract:
    In this paper, we discuss extensions of two coordinated ordering methods which reduce inventory costs for multi-item systems. Goyal's method, which is useful for constant demand, decreases cost by assigning an order interval for each item, and an optimum number of purchase orders per period. Goyal's method is modified to...

  • Proteomic analyses of marine bacteria

    Creator:
    Sowell, Sarah M.
    Abstract:
    Proteins are the metabolic machines of the cell and as such, the study of proteins could illuminate the dominant biological activities that are occurring within cells and reveal how an organism interacts with its environment. Here, we used proteomic techniques to study the abundant marine bacterium SAR11 both as an...
