many of the so-called organizational strategies on which companies are dependent, are not endurable. these strategies may not be well structured and cannot stand the test of time. thus, making the right decision is extremely important for strategic planning. the proposed strategy formulation framework in this paper (fuzzy bsq) is a powerful management tool in strategic planning that integrates ...

The efficiency of transportation system management plays an important role in the planning and operation efficiency of flexible manufacturing systems. Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) are part of diversified and advanced techniques in the field of material transportation which have many applications today and act as an intermediary between operating and storage equipment and are routed and contr...

In this study, we aim to present a new model for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) considering a working calendar for project members and determined the skill factor of any member using the efficiency concept. For this purpose, the recyclable resources are staff resources where any person with multiple skills can meet the required skills of activities in a given time. ...

A method for incorporating fuzzy preferences into evolutionary multiobjective optimization is proposed. After introducing three commonly used models for describing fuzzy preferences, a method to convert fuzzy preferences into realvalued weight intervals is suggested. It is argued that to convert fuzzy preferences into interval-based weights is more consistent with the motivation of using fuzzy ...

In order to overcome the difficulty of cognitive and mining for large-scale multi-relationship system, we take the advantages of intelligent computing of FCM (Fuzzy Cognitive Map) and update the traditional FCM to MRFCM (Multi-Relationship based Fuzzy Cognitive Map) for multi-relationship data mining. The state mining of hyper-node and multi-relationship inference of MRFCM are studied and imple...

This paper proposes the guided iterative prioritized planning (GIPP) algorithm to address the problem of moving multiple mobile agents to their respective destinations in a shortest timerelated cost. Compared to other MAPP algorithms, the GIPP algorithm strikes a good balance between various performance criteria such as finding feasible solutions, completing the task promptly and low computatio...

The traditional control systems are a set of hardware and software infrastructure domain and qualified personnel to facilitate the functions of analysis, planning, decision-making, management and coordination of business processes. Human interaction with the components of these systems is done using a specified in advance script dialogue "menu", mainly based on human intellect and unproductive ...

A three-level relief chain including a number of suppliers in fixed locations, candidate distribution centers and affected areas at certain points are considered. A mixed integer nonlinear programming model is proposed for open transportation location routing problem by considering split delivery of demand. To solve a realistic problem, foregoing parameters are considered as fuzzy in our propos...

Banks are one of the most important financial sectors in order to the economic development of each country. Certainly, efficiency scores and ranks of banks are significant and effective aspects towards future planning. Sometimes the performance of banks must be measured in the presence of undesirable and vague factors. For these reasons in the current paper a procedure based on data envelopment...
