Advances in crop insect modelling methods—Towards a whole system approach

Global Advances Toward a Whole Systems Approach

Editorial When a patient with symptoms presents to a physician or other healthcare professional, the skillful practitioner notices not only where the patient is compromised but also how the patient is healthy. From ancient times through the present, this way of seeing individual patients as whole beings, as having both strengths and challenges, has been the hallmark of professional practice. An...

Production Constraints Modelling: A Tactical Review Approach

A constraint is a limitation or a restriction that poses a threat to the performance and efficiency of a system. This paper presented a tactical review approach to production constraints modeling. It discussed the theory of constraints (TOC) as a thinking process and continuous improvement strategy to curtail constraints in other to constantly increase the performance and efficiency of a system...

a dynamic modelling for decreasing of loss time average in insurance companies: system dynamics approach

one of the most challenging problems in our country insurance industry is the phenomenon of increase of loss pay average time by insurance companies. a lot of research and analysis have been conducted on both the roots and possible solutions for this problem, none of which has had success in annihilating it. this paper presents a discrete model ) nonlinear mathematical model ( of insurance serv...

Crop rotation modelling

For use in an Internet application on whole farm modelling we needed to determine a reasonable crop rotation given only the crops in the rotation and the number of hectares of each crop. The crop rotation problem considered in this paper is therefore that of determining hectares of precrops for each crop. Crop rotation modelling in general is traditionally done by using linear programming. In t...
