We consider the Ordered Open End Bin Packing problem. Items of sizes in (0, 1] are presented one by one, to be assigned bins this order. An item can any bin for which current total size is strictly below 1. This means also that overloaded its last packed item. improve lower and upper bounds on asymptotic competitive ratio online case. Specifically, we design first algorithm whose 2, value close...

This study discusses some variants of Ordered WeightedAveraging (OWA) operators and related information aggregation methods. Indetail, we define the Extended Ordered Weighted Sum (EOWS) operator and theExtended Ordered Weighted Averaging (EOWA) operator, which are applied inscientometrics evaluation where the preference is over finitely manyrepresentative works. As...

this paper consider the   general  forms of $(alpha,beta)$-fuzzyleft ideals (right ideals, bi-ideals, interior ideals) of an orderedsemigroup, where$alpha,betain{in_{gamma},q_{delta},in_{gamma}wedgeq_{delta}, in_{gamma}vee q_{delta}}$ and $alphaneqin_{gamma}wedge q_{delta}$. special attention is paid to$(in_{gamma},ivq)$-left ideals (right ideals, bi-ideals, interiorideals) and some related  pr...

the notion of absorbent ordered filters in implicative semigroupsis introduced, and its fuzzification is considered. relations among (fuzzy) orderedfilters, (fuzzy) absorbent ordered filters, and (fuzzy) positive implicativeordered filters are stated. the extensionproperty for (fuzzy) absorbent orderedfilters is established. conditions for (fuzzy) ordered filters to be (fuzzy)absorbent ordered ...

This study uses a cross-country panel to examine the determinants of corruption, paying particular attention to political institutions that increase accountability. Even though the theoretical literature has stressed the importance of political institutions in determining corruption, the empirical literature is relatively scarce. Our results confirm the role of political institutions in determi...
