This paper reviews a cyclic scheduling model of repetitive manufacturing environments consisting of exible machines and multi-stage jobs. We explicitly model two system performance measures, throughput and ow time, while incorporating variability arising from uncertainty in operation processing times. We present an iterative approximation scheme to estimate the two moment behavior of our perfor...

background:the diagnostic accuracy of frozen section as an important source of information in surgical pathology is important not only in the management of surgical patients but also as a measure of quality control in surgical pathology. in this study, we evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of frozen sections over a 6-year period in a teaching hospital in iran. methods: we retrospectively review...

With the advancement technology for reinforced concrete structures, it becomes increasingly feasible to use this steel structures. The objective of work is present formulation optimization problem beams with external pretension straight or polygonal tracing cables, considering environmental and economic impacts. For function formulation, minimization CO2 emission cost in design structure were c...

We show that long-run average cost function for the (R, T) policy with normally distributed demand has a structure similar to that of the corresponding (Q, r) model so that many of the useful properties of the latter model are applicable. In particular, (i) the optimal cost is relatively insensitive to the choice of the reorder interval, T, provided a near-optimal R corresponding to the chosen ...
