Complexity is one of the most important issues of any production planning. The increase in complexity of production planning can cause inconsistency between a production plan and an actual outcome. The complexity generally can be divided in two categories, the static complexity and the dynamic complexity, which can be computed using the ant ropy formula. The formula considers the probability of...

This paper introduces a novel automated camera control method for capturing desktop presentations. For this purpose, we first discuss typical features of shots and their cameraworks that frequently appear in TV programs. To realize those features in our automated video capturing system, we classify the purpose of a camerawork from two points of view: target and aspect-of-target. Then, we consid...

aggregate production planning (app) is one of the most important issues carried out in manufacturing environments which seeks efficient planning, scheduling and coordination of all production activities that optimizes the company's objectives. in this paper, we develop a mixed integer linear programming (milp) model for an integrated aggregate production planning system with closed loop su...

human insulin-like growth factor 1 (higf-1) consists of 70 amino acids in a single chain with three intermolecular disulfide bridges possessing valuable therapeutic effects. to date, numerous variants of specifically engineered higf-1 have been produced so as to improve higf-1 biological activity, stability and stronger binding to igf-1 receptor. mecasermin is one of the modified variants with ...

We would like to thank our co-editors, editorial board members, guest editors, referees and authors that have contributed to JTAER with new ideas and editorial work during the last seven years. Based on their suggestions last year we implemented the Editorial Board Communications System, and this year we are implementing a platform to support of a research network and an alert system. Together ...

This research is derived an integrated model of economic production quantity, inspection and preventive maintenance to incorporate rework, minimal repair and inspection time for an imperfect production system. Some proportions of non-conforming items are assumed scrap before the rework process start and others are reworked. The rework process is imperfect that is a proportion of the reworked it...
