This paper studies a supply chain coordinated by a revenue-sharing contract in fuzzy environment. Two kinds of fuzzy programming models are discussed: revenue-sharing contract with fuzzy linear demand model and fuzzy iso-price-elastic demand model. Supply chain coordination in both centralized decision setting and centralized decision setting are achieved by obtaining the optimal solutions in t...

The paper touches upon the issues of functional specification and verification of digital hardware at different abstraction levels. It shows how behavioral models of various degrees of abstraction can be represented by means of the contract paradigm and how contract specifications can be applied to generate test sequences in an automated way. The testing technique under consideration is based o...

Firms increasingly use contingent labor to flexibly respond to demand in many environments. Labor supply agencies are growing to fill this need. As a result, firms and agencies are engaging in long-term contracts for labor supply. We develop mathematical models of the interaction between firms and labor supply agencies when demand and supply are uncertain. We consider two models of labor supply...

in spite of different ideas of islamic jurists, in iranian law, in article 184 of civil law, the suspended contract has been accepted and only exceptionally, this contract is null. in the french law and some of the islamic countries, there are two kinds or suspensions: suspension of formation of contract and suspension of dissolution of contract. in the civil law of these countries, the event t...

Business contract knowledge exists dispersed in different domains. For successful business process functioning, a precise, clear understanding and interpretation of contractual terms and conditions is required. A semantic interpretation of contract obligations and their required performances to fulfill the obligations, is aimed to bridge the existing gap between business process management and ...

43 The experimental observation R’/RV < c$/$ , i. e. , ok > c& where cc N , are the v-(5-) induced charged and neutral current inclusive cross sections on an isospin 0 nucleon and R provides a constraint on the possible quark representations among various SU(2) x U(1) gauge models. We have examined the energy dependence of both V-(i?-) induced charged and neutral current processes in the models...

Even though many studies have discussed outsourcing contracts from the client’s perspective, little research has been done from the vendor’s perspective. In this paper, we consider a vendor’s outsourcing contract decision-making process, during which the market price and the vendor’s operation cost are uncertain. This paper develops real option models to investigate whether a vendor firm should...
