چکیده
To my parents, Hadi and Azam and to my husband, Masoud ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to thank my outstanding advisor, Professor Todd Austin, for his continuous guidance, strong support and encouragement without which, this work would have not been possible. It has been truly a privilege for me to work with him and I look forward to our further corporations in the future. has produced a unique opportunity that nurtures academic excellence. My sincere gratitude goes to my Iranian friends whose kindness and support made me feel at home, while living thousands of miles away from home. Finally, I would like to express my eternal and deep gratitude to my parents whose endless love has been the engine which has driven me throughout my life, including this endeavor; and to my husband, Masoud Agah, without whom life would have been empty.

CREDIBILITY-BASED FUZZY PROGRAMMING MODELS TO SOLVE THE BUDGET-CONSTRAINED FLEXIBLE FLOW LINE PROBLEM
This paper addresses a new version of the exible ow line prob- lem, i.e., the budget constrained one, in order to determine the required num- ber of processors at each station along with the selection of the most eco- nomical process routes for products. Since a number of parameters, such as due dates, the amount of available budgets and the cost of opting particular routes, are imprecise (fuzz...
متن کاملAn Energy-efficient Mathematical Model for the Resource-constrained Project Scheduling Problem: An Evolutionary Algorithm
In this paper, we propose an energy-efficient mathematical model for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem to optimize makespan and consumption of energy, simultaneously. In the proposed model, resources are speed-scaling machines. The problem is NP-hard in the strong sense. Therefore, a multi-objective fruit fly optimization algorithm (MOFOA) is developed. The MOFOA uses the VIKO...

متن کاملUltra-Low-Energy DSP Processor Design for Many-Core Parallel Applications
Background and Objectives: Digital signal processors are widely used in energy constrained applications in which battery lifetime is a critical concern. Accordingly, designing ultra-low-energy processors is a major concern. In this work and in the first step, we propose a sub-threshold DSP processor. Methods: As our baseline architecture, we use a modified version of an existing ultra-low-power...
