this paper presents a new mathematical model for a bi-objective job shop scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times that minimizes the weighted mean completion time and the weighted mean tardiness time. for solving this multi-objective model, we develop a fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (fmolp) model. in this problem, a proposed fmolp method is applied with respect to the o...

This paper considers the single machine scheduling problem with precedence constraints and deteriorating jobs. A mathematical model based on binary integer programming (BIP) is developed. By these precedence constraints, jobs can not start before completion of its all predecessors. The represented model is in two steps, in step one the earliest starting time of each job is computed, then the re...

Operating rooms have become the most important areas in hospitals because of the scarcity and cost of resources. The present study investigates operating room scheduling and rescheduling considering the priority of surgical patients in a specialized hospital. The ultimate purpose of scheduling is to minimize patient waiting time, surgeon idle time between surgeries, and penalties for deviations...

In this paper, the investment portfolio is formed based on the data mining algorithm of CHAID on the basis of the risk status criteria. In the next step, the second investment portfolio is created based on the decision rules extracted by the DEA-BCC model. The final portfolio is created through a two-objective mathematical programming model based on the Imperialist Competitive algorithm.

From a conventional mathematical programming model, and in accordance with which fuzzification is used, several models of fuzzy mathematical programming problems can be obtained. This paper deals with the study of the optimality concept for (g,p)-fuzzified mathematical programming problems. An auxiliary parametric mathematical programming problem is presented which allows the above model to be ...

Mathematical programming and artificial intelligence (AI) methods are known as the most effective and applicable procedures to form manufacturing cells in designing a cellular manufacturing system (CMS). In this paper, a bi-objective programming model is presented to consider the cell formation problem that is solved by a proposed multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO). The model c...
