Expanded Scope of Traffic-flow Analysis: Entity Flow-phase Analysis for Rapid Performance Evaluation of Enterprise Process Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes entity-flow phase analysis (EFA) which is a method for fast performance analysis of organisational process systems. EFA, similarly to trafficflow analysis for communication systems (TFA), uses the combined approach of simulation and numerical methods. In simulation projects initiated to support the design of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) system and Business Process (BP) system in an organisation the parallel analysis of different systems may be efficient. EFA is a promising evaluation method to be applied for systems with determined BP and ICT subsystems in an organisational environment.

Entity Flow-phase Analysis for Fast Performance Estimation of Organisational Process Systems
This paper describes Entity Flow-phase Analysis (EFA) which is a method for fast performance estimation of organisational process systems. Entity Flow-phase Analysis extends the approach of the promising Traffic-Flow Analysis (TFA) method – created for the rapid analysis of communications networks – for BP (Business Process) systems. EFA operates on the possibilities determined by the similarit...
متن کاملAn Optimal Dynamic Control Method for an Isolated Intersection Using Fuzzy Systems
Traffic flow systems are nonlinear and uncertain, so it is very difficult to find their optimal points. In traditional traffic control systems, the traffic lights of crossings change in a fixed time period that is not optimal. On the other hand, most proposed systems are sufficiently capable of coping with the uncertainties of traffic flow. To solve this problem, there is a need to develop expe...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Spatial Distribution Algorithm of the Traffic Flow Analysis and of the Entity Flow-phase Analysis
This paper investigates an important algorithm that is used in both the Traffic-Flow Analysis and the Entity Flow-phase Analysis. These methods are similar to each other and can be used for the fast and approximate (performance) analysis of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) systems and Business Process (BP) systems. Both methods contain an algorithm for the spatial distribution of ...
متن کاملLiterature Review of Traffic Assignment: Static and Dynamic
Rapid urban growth is resulting into increase in travel demand and private vehicle ownership in urban areas. In the present scenario the existing infrastructure has failed to match the demand that leads to traffic congestion, vehicular pollution and accidents. With traffic congestion augmentation on the road, delay of commuters has increased and reliability of road network has decreased. Four s...
متن کاملTechnical performance evaluation of ERP packages with two-stage DEA approach
Enterprise resources planning (ERP) systems attract many attentions from industry sector because of their ability to facilitate and integrate the enterprise operations. However, many expenses accompany the implementation of these systems and consecutive changes which doing a precise and comprehensive performance evaluation a necessary part of this process. These evaluations should consider oper...
