Möglichkeiten und Grenzen des Einsatzes von Design for Six Sigma im Produktentstehungsprozess (PEP) -- Six Sigma – Zeitgemäßes Managementkonzept zur Erzielung von Null-Fehler-Qualität im Wertschöpfungsprozess -- Praxis-Theorie-Transformation als induktive Vorgehensweise: Vom konkreten zum...

We provide an overview of using genetic programming (GP) to model stock returns. Our models employ GP terminals (model decision variables) that are financial factors identified by experts. We describe the multi-stage training, testing and validation process that we have integrated with GP...

In this paper we present a Feed-Foward Neural Networks Autoregressive (FFNN-AR) model with genetic algorithms training optimization in order to predict the gross domestic product growth of six countries. Specifically we propose a kind of weighted regression, which can be used for econometric...

The transformer is one of the most useful pieces of equipment in a power system. The objective of the optimum design is to build the equipment as economically as possible. The design which fulfils certain limitations is subordinated to the question of economic manufacture. This paper presents a...

Messages in Multicast Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (MAODV) routing protocol are transmitted by flooding which causes traffic overhead. Further mobility breaks those paths that are established by the routing protocol and disrupts the communication, executing an increased rate of link failure....

In the twenty-first century the sustainability of energy and transportation systems is on the top of the political agenda in many countries around the world. Environmental impacts of human economic activity necessitate the consideration of conflicting goals in decision making processes to...
