A Note on the Stochastic Comparison in Production Yield Management

Stochastic Comparisons in Production Yield Management

Manufacturing firms routinely commit resources to increase yield rates through productand process-improvement initiatives. Champions of such yield-improvement projects may assume that stochastically larger yield rates are beneficial. In this note, we show that this need not hold, even when the contingent production lot sizes are chosen optimally. We employ stochastic comparison techniques to sh...

focus on communication in iranian high school language classes: a study of the role of teaching materials in changing the focus onto communication in language classes

چکیده ارتباط در کلاس به عوامل زیادی از جمله معلمان، دانش آموزان، برنامه های درسی و از همه مهم تر، مواد آموزشی وابسته است. در تدریس ارتباطی زبان که تاکید زیادی بر توانش ارتباطی دارد، کتاب درسی به عنوان عامل موثر بر پویایی کلاس محسوب میگردد که درس ها را از طریق فراهم آوردن متن ارتباط کلاسی و هم چنین نوع تمرین زبانی که دانش آموزان در طول فعالیت های کلاسی به آن مشغول اند، کنترل می کند. این حقیقت ک...

A Note on Stochastic Dissipativeness

In this paper we present a stochastic version of Willems’ ideas on Dissipativity and generalize the dissipation inequality to Markov Diffusion Processes.We show the relevance of these ideas by examining the problem of Ergodic Control of partially observed diffusions.
