A Comprehensive Stochastic Model of Blind Usage: Theory and Validation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Based on six years of continuous measurements, we have analysed in detail the occupancy, thermal and visual parameters influencing blind usage behaviour. This paper begins by presenting some of the key findings from these analyses. Informed by other developments in the literature, we go on to propose an approach for a comprehensive stochastic model for simulating blind usage.

A Comprehensive Stochastic Model of Window Usage: Theory and Validation
Based on almost seven years of continuous measurements we have analysed in detail the influence of occupancy patterns, indoor temperature and outdoor climate parameters (temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity and rainfall) on window opening and closing behaviour. This paper presents the development and testing of several modelling approaches, including logistic probability dis...
متن کاملApplication of queuing theory in inventory systems with substitution flexibility
Considering the competition in today’s business environment, tactical planning of a supply chain becomes more complex than before. In many multi-product inventory systems, substitution flexibility can improve profits. This paper aims to prepare a comprehensive substitution inventory model, where an inventory system with two substitute products with ignorable lead time has been considered, and e...
متن کاملCalculation of Leakage in Water Supply Network Based on Blind Source Separation Theory
The economic and environmental losses due to serious leakage in the urban water supply network have increased the effort to control the water leakage. However, current methods for leakage estimation are inaccurate leading to the development of ineffective leakage controls. Therefore, this study proposes a method based on the blind source separation theory (BSS) to calculate the leakage of water...
متن کاملDeveloping a new stochastic competitive model regarding inventory and price
Within the competition in today’s business environment, the design of supply chains becomes more complex than before. This paper deals with the retailer’s location problem when customers choose their vendors, and inventory costs have been considered for retailers. In a competitive location problem, price and location of facilities affect demands of customers; consequently, simultaneous optimiza...
متن کاملDesigning the synergistic leadership model for universities of Iran based on grounded theory
A review of the existing leadership literature in organizations shows that there is no comprehensive theoretical framework for synergistic leadership that is generally agreed upon. Therefore, this study seeks to identify and explain the dimensions of synergistic leadership in the form of a systematic model for Iranian universities using the grounded theory. Semi-structured interviews were used ...
