چکیده
This paper presents a methodology for modeling business interoperability in a context of cooperative industrial networks. The purpose is to develop a methodology that supports the analysis of the impact of business interoperability on the performance of cooperative networked organizations and the networks in which they are part. The analysis of the impact is grounded on the agent-based simulation. Different simulation environments are created to explore different scenarios of business interoperability problems and how they affect the performance measures such as cost and time. To test the applicability of the proposed methodology, an illustrative example to implement reverse logistics in a context of automotive industry is presented. The proposed methodology should serve as a conceptual tool for guiding managers in the analysis of the impact of different levels of business interoperability in the implementation of collaborative management practices such as reverse logistics.

Cooperative vehicle routing problem: an opportunity for cost saving
In this paper, a novel methodology is proposed to solve a cooperative multi-depot vehicle routing problem. We establish a mathematical model for multi-owner VRP in which each owner (i.e. player) manages single or multiple depots. The basic idea consists of offering an option that owners cooperatively manage the VRP to save their costs. We present cooperative game theory techniques for cost savi...
متن کاملContext-aware Modeling for Spatio-temporal Data Transmitted from a Wireless Body Sensor Network
Context-aware systems must be interoperable and work across different platforms at any time and in any place. Context data collected from wireless body area networks (WBAN) may be heterogeneous and imperfect, which makes their design and implementation difficult. In this research, we introduce a model which takes the dynamic nature of a context-aware system into consideration. This model is con...
متن کاملA Proposed Data Mining Methodology and its Application to Industrial Procedures
Data mining is the process of discovering correlations, patterns, trends or relationships by searching through a large amount of data stored in repositories, corporate databases, and data warehouses. Industrial procedures with the help of engineers, managers, and other specialists, comprise a broad field and have many tools and techniques in their problem-solving arsenal. The purpose of this st...
متن کاملMeasuring the efficiency of a three-stage network using data envelopment analysis approach considering dual boundary
This paper presents a method for performance evaluation, ranking and clustering based on the double-frontier view to analyze the complex networks. The model allows us to open the structure of the “black box” and can help to obtain important information about efficient and inefficient points of the system. In this paper, we consider a three-stage network, in respect to the additional desirable a...
متن کاملAn Approach of Artificial Neural Networks Modeling Based on Fuzzy Regression for Forecasting Purposes
In this paper, a new approach of modeling for Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) models based on the concepts of fuzzy regression is proposed. For this purpose, we reformulated ANN model as a fuzzy nonlinear regression model while it has advantages of both fuzzy regression and ANN models. Hence, it can be applied to uncertain, ambiguous, or complex environments due to its flexibility for forecas...
