Effective management in any organisation requires a holistic approach in focusing on information security. Senior managers have to know how well their organisations are perfonning as measured against internationally accepted best practices. Part of the information security management problem is that it is viewed either from a technological perspective focussing on product evaluation only, or fr...

Software design evaluation plays an important role in software development process, to generate software product with high levels of productivity and efficiency. To achieve high level of qualitative software product, implementation of pattern can create a domain specific framework to provide consistency throughout a software solution. This paper proposed an evaluation pattern called Criteria Ba...

In this paper, we apply continuous review (S-1, S) policy for inventory control in a three-echelon supply chain (SC) including r identical retailers, a central warehouse with limited storage space, and two independent manufacturing plants which offer two kinds of product to the customer. The warehouse of the model follows (M/M/1) queue model where customer demands follow a Poisson probabilit...

The ability to develop or evolve software or software-based systems/services with defined and guaranteed quality in a predictable way is becoming increasingly important. Essential though not exclusive prerequisites for this are the ability to model the relevant quality properties appropriately and the capability to perform reliable quality evaluations. Existing approaches for integrated quality...

Catalytic naphtha reforming is one of the most important processes in which, low quality naphtha is converted into high octane motor gasoline. In this study, a mathematical model was developed and was used for investigation the effect of temperature, pressure, hydrogen to hydrocarbon ratio on the octane number, the yield of product and the undesirable phenomena of coke deposition in a semiregen...
