The acceptance of the right project which leads to the realization of the set objectives is one of the most important issues in project-oriented companies. Therefore, corporate managers prefer to work on those projects which ensures the achievement of goals such as increasing financial profits or being the top brands in their rivals market. The present  research aimed at introducing  a systemat...

It is now common in the mining industry to deal with several correlated attributes, which need to be jointly simulated in order to reproduce their correlations and assess the multivariate grade risk reasonably. Approaches to multivariate simulation which remove the correlation between attributes of interest prior to simulate and then re-impose the relationship afterward have been gaining popula...

recent studies have indicated that the rate of successful enterprise resource planning (erp) implementation projects is reduced and risk of implementation is increased to the same extent. accordingly, this study provides a model in support of erp implementation using system dynamics approach by behavioral simulation in the vensim software environment. this study is an applied research and due t...

since the analysis of complex services systems by using mathematical modeling techniques, with considering the random patterns prevailing in them, is so difficult or probably impossible, improvement guidelines are often followed based on the experts' experiences using qualitative methods. in the present paper, by employing a discrete event computer simulation methodology, criminal trial sy...

one of known methods for measuring, forecasting and managing risk is value at risk, which recently has been used by financial institutions extensively. value at risk (var) is a method for recognizing and evaluating risk and uses standard statistical techniques that have daily using in other contexts. this research is seeking a career for managing investment risk in stock exchange and selection ...

background: because of the adverse effects of ionizing radiation on fetuses, prior to radiotherapy of pregnant patients, fetal dose should be estimated. fetal dose has been studied by several authors in different depths in phantoms with various abdomen thicknesses (at). in this study, the effect of maternal at and depth in fetal dosimetry was investigated, using peripheral dose (pd) distributio...

using crop simulation models is an efficient complement to experimental research. crop models can also be helpful with respect to decision-making in sustainable farming system. this study was done to estimate genetic coefficients and evaluate performanced dssat in prediction of development, growth and yield in wheat. data from various field experiments for four wheat cultivars koohdasht, shirou...

gas injection into heavy oil reservoirs could result in high ultimate recovery of oil. experimental studies showed that an application of a combined technology of gas assisted gravity drainage (gagd) and vapor extraction (vapex) could increase final oil recovery of a candidate viscous oil reservoir. in this paper the results of laboratory investigation are presented, including pressure-volume-t...

asimulation-optimization approach is proposed for replenishment planning andshelf space allocation. the customers’ demand is divided into fixed andvariable demand. each customer follows a given path while shopping in thestore. by dividing the store space into several zones and calculating therelated substantial and random utilities, an analytical equation is proposedfor the probability of zone ...
