A MATHEMATICAL MODEL FOR GOAL ORIENTED SYSTEM

Solving a new mathematical model for cellular manufacturing system: A fuzzy goal programming approach

  A fuzzy goal programming-based approach is used to solve a proposed multi-objective linear programming model and simultaneously handle two important problems in cellular manufacturing systems, viz. cell formation and layout design. Considerations of intra-cell layout, the intra-cell material handling can be calculated exactly. The advantages of the proposed model are considering machining cos...

Model Adaptivity for Goal-Oriented Inference

In scientific and engineering contexts, physical systems are represented by mathematical models, characterized by a set of parameters. The inverse problem arises when the parameters are unknown and one tries to infer these parameters based on observations. Solving the inverse problem can require many model simulations, which may be expensive for complex models; multiple models of varying fideli...

A Goal Oriented e-Learning Agent System

This paper illustrates a goal oriented approach to model agent mediated e-learning system. Most of the traditional e-learning systems are not learner-centric, and they often ignore the diversity of learner population; thus very often their service is not able to directly or effectively match the learner’s goal. From the learner’s point of view, we propose a goal oriented approach to develop an ...

A Mathematical Model for Flood Protection

Many regions in the world are protected against flooding by a dike, which may be either natural or artificial. We deal with a model for finding the optimal heights of such a dike in the future. It minimizes the sum of the investments costs for upgrading the dike in the future and the expected costs due to flooding. The model is highly nonlinear, nonconvex, and infinite-dimensional. Despite this...
