We consider the following differential game of pursuit and evasion involving two unmanned aerial vehicle agents (UAVs): an evading UAV (“evader”), which has limited maneuverability, and a pursuing UAV (“pursuer”), which is assumed to be completely agile. The two UAVs move on the Euclidean plane with different but constant speeds. Whereas the pursuer can change the orientation of its velocity ve...

The aim of this paper is to propose a robust reliable bi-objective supply chain network design (SCND) model that is capable of controlling different kinds of uncertainties, concurrently. In this regard, stochastic bi-level scenario based programming approach which is used to model various scenarios related to strike of disruptions. The well-known method helps to overcome adverse effects of disr...

In order to achieve such objectives a paradigm has...

Together with many success stories, promises such as the increase in production speed and improvement stakeholders' collaboration have contributed to making agile a transformation software industry which companies want take part. However, driven either by natural expected evolution or contextual factors that challenge adoption of methods prescribed their creator(s), processes practice mutate in...

Nowadays, in turbulent and violate global markets, agility has been considered as a fundamental characteristic of a supply chain needed for survival. To achieve the competitive edge, companies must align with suppliers and customers to streamline operations, as well as agility beyond individual companies. Consequently Agile Supply Chain (ASC) is considered as a dominant competitive advantage.  ...

The Agile Manifesto and Agile Principles are typically referred to as the definitions of "agile" and "agility". There is research on agile values and agile practises, but how should “Scaled Agility” be defined, and what might be the characteristics and principles of Scaled Agile? This paper examines the characteristics of scaled agile, and the principles that are used to build up such agility. ...

After introducing agile approach in 2001, several agile methods were founded over the last decade. Agile values such as customer collaboration, embracing changes, iteration and frequent delivery, continuous integration, etc. motivate all software stakeholders to use these methods in their projects. The main issue is that for using these methods instead of traditional methods in software develop...

Prevalence of Agile methods in software companies is increasing dramatically. Software companies need to employ these methods to overcome the inherent challenges of traditional methods. However, transitioning to Agile approach is a topic of debate and there is no unique and well-defined transition model or framework yet. Although some research studies have addressed barriers and strengths behin...
