چکیده
Based on a discrete-event simulation model, Simulationbased Real-time Decision-Making (SRDM) is an innovative approach to real-time, goal-directed decision-making. When applied to a flexible manufacturing system, SRDM makes better decisions than most fixed policies, such as deterministic, stochastic and manual. SRDM even improved over fixed policies optimized within a class of policies by OptQuest, in our numerical experiments. Compared to these fixed policies, SRDM shows greater improvement for more complex systems and is quite robust with respect to modeling errors. SRDM provides an improvement over fixed policies by its ability to implement adaptive policies. Since most real-time decisions in currently deployed manufacturing systems are made either manually or by using fixed policies, our results suggest that using SRDM instead could lead to significant improvement in operating performance.

متن کاملReal-Time Decision Making by Driverless City Vehicles A Discrete Event Driven Approach
This thesis addresses the topic of real-time decision making by driverless (autonomous) city vehicles, i.e. their ability to make appropriate driving decisions in non-simplified urban traffic conditions. After addressing the state of research, and explaining the research question, the thesis presents solutions for the subcomponents which are relevant for decision making with respect to informat...
متن کاملDesigning a new multi-objective fuzzy stochastic DEA model in a dynamic environment to estimate efficiency of decision making units (Case Study: An Iranian Petroleum Company)
This paper presents a new multi-objective fuzzy stochastic data envelopment analysis model (MOFS-DEA) under mean chance constraints and common weights to estimate the efficiency of decision making units for future financial periods of them. In the initial MOFS-DEA model, the outputs and inputs are characterized by random triangular fuzzy variables with normal distribution, in which ...
متن کاملConstrained consumable resource allocation in alternative stochastic networks via multi-objective decision making
Many real projects complete through the realization of one and only one path of various possible network paths. Here, these networks are called alternative stochastic networks (ASNs). It is supposed that the nodes of considered network are probabilistic with exclusive-or receiver and exclusive-or emitter. First, an analytical approach is proposed to simplify the structure of t...
متن کاملA DSS-Based Dynamic Programming for Finding Optimal Markets Using Neural Networks and Pricing
One of the substantial challenges in marketing efforts is determining optimal markets, specifically in market segmentation. The problem is more controversial in electronic commerce and electronic marketing. Consumer behaviour is influenced by different factors and thus varies in different time periods. These dynamic impacts lead to the uncertain behaviour of consumers and therefore harden the t...
