The tradeoff of effectiveness and cost is a vital problem for complex industrial systems, mainly applied in the weapons aviation fields. As typical system, effectiveness-cost satellites becomes challenging interesting. This paper takes remote sensing satellite as research object, an integrated approach to assess optimize its proposed. characteristic parameters are selected according analysis st...

We have developed a social optimization model that integrates wastewater treatment cost function and ecosystem damage cost function. The social optimal abatement level of water pollution is determined by finding the tradeoff between pollution control cost and ecosystem damage. The model is applied to data from the Lake Taihu region in China to demonstrate this tradeoff. A wastewater treatment c...

AbstractThis research was conducted on The Malay community of Mempawah. purpose ofthe to know the people's rational behavior among someaspects such as tradeoff, opportunity cost, marginalism, and incentive. This researchwas qualitative with phenomenological approach. samples were 14 peopletaken using snowball sampling technique. Based result, aspect tradeoffoccurred in some cases consideration ...

The quality of operational processes is an important driver of hospital performance. In particular, processes that reliably deliver both evidence-based and patient-centered care, which we refer to conformance and experiential quality, respectively, have been argued to result in better clinical outcomes. However, hospitals, in general, struggle to perform well on these process quality dimensions...

This paper presents an activity-based cost model for printed wiring board (PWB) fabrication in which the process steps are defined by material processing activities. The model is designed to be used during system planning and tradeoff analysis prior to physical design. In many activity-based manufacturing cost models, activities are based on equipment and facilities (“equipment-centric”). In th...

For à trous wavelet-based remote sensing image fusion, it is significant to determine the number of decomposition levels (NDL) to derive the best tradeoff between the spatial and spectral qualities of the fused image. The tradeoff is modeled as a cost function from a novel three-dimensional variational point of view. By solving this cost function, a new fusion scheme is proposed that can be use...

The purpose of this problem is to choose a set of project activities for crashing, in a way that the expected project time, cost and risk are minimized and the expected quality is maximized. In this problem, each project activity can be performed with a specific executive mode. Each executive mode is characterized with four measures, namely the expected time, cost, quality and risk. In this pap...

Deep learning technology has made great progress in multi-view 3D reconstruction tasks. At present, the mainstream solutions adopt different ways to fusion features from several views. Among them, attention-based aggregation function performs relatively well and stably, however, it still an obvious shortcoming strong independence of each view during predicting weights for merging leads a lack a...
