Fairness in Manufacturing Cellular Therapies

Fairness in cellular mobile networks

Channel allocation algorithms for channelized cellular systems are discussed from a new perspective, viz., fairness of allocation. The concepts of relative and absolute fairness are introduced and discussed. It will be shown that under certain reasonable assumptions, there exists an absolute (max-min) fair carried traffic intensity vector (a vector describing the traffic carried in the cells of...

Integrative Cell Formation and Layout Design in Cellular Manufacturing Systems

This paper proposes a new integrative view of manufacturing cell formation and both inter-cell and intra-cell layout problems. Cells formation and their popular bi-directional linear layout are determined simultaneously through a Dynamic Programming algorithm (with the objective of minimizing the inter-cell flow cost under a cell size constraint). This Dynamic Programming algorithm is implement...

Layout of Cellular Manufacturing System in Dynamic Condition

Cellular manufacturing system (CMS) is highly important in modern manufacturing methods. Given the ever increasing market competition in terms of time and cost of manufacturing, we need models to decrease the cost and time of manufacturing. In this study, CMS is considered in condition of dynamic demand in each period. The model is developed for facing dynamic demand that increases the cost of ...

Cellular Therapies for Immunosuppression

Integrated Approach for Cellular Manufacturing a Case Study (TECHNICAL NOTE)

To cope with fast changing customer requirements, industrial demands and to meet stringent specifications of customers Cellular Manufacturing Systems has become an effective tool in hands of manufacturers. Most of the published literature on cell formation earlier considers only the data available in the route sheets and ignored subproblems associated with cell formation. There is a need to dev...
