Simulation Optimization (SO) provides a structured approach to the system design and configuration when analytical expressions for input/output relationships are unavailable. Several excellent surveys have been written on this topic. Each survey concentrates on only few classification criteria....

The problem of designing a system for optimal operational control of random deviations in the productivity of technological equipment is considered. To construct an algorithm for optimal control of the performance of technological equipment, a PDE model of a production flow line was used. The...

Using a statistical approach that is widespread in the natural sciences, a model of the production and technical system is built. The state of the production system is set by a multitude of objects of labour. The state of the subject of labor is given by a point in the phase of technological...

Рассмотрен синтез программного управления операционными параметрами поточной линии. The synthesis of program control of the operational parameters of the production line

This article discusses the prospects of using linear regression models to describe multi-section branched transport systems of conveyor type. A characteristic feature of the functioning of a multi-section transport system is the presence of resonant peak values for the flow parameters of the...

Two classes of models for describing production flow lines are analyzed. The use of models of these classes for the design of highly efficient control systems of production lines, the technological route of which consists of a large number of technological operations, is analyzed. The division...

The problem of designing a system for optimal control of random deviations of flow parameters of a production line from the planned value is considered. The PDE-model of the production line was used as a foundation for the development of an algorithm for optimal control of the parameters...

This paper employs several efficiency measures and productivity changes using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to investigate efficiency performance of Islamic banks in Sudan. Our results indicate, among twelve banks included in our sample only two banks, (the largest bank in the group which is...

The article considers the synthesis of an optimal discrete control algorithm for the conveyor belt speed, based on the use of Time-Of-Use tariffs. Methods have been investigated that reduce the consumption of electricity required to transport material from the extracted place to the place of...

This paper considers the classical newsvendor model when demand is normally distributed but with a large coefficient of variation. This leads to observe with a non-negligible probability negative values that do not make sense. To avoid the occurrence of such negative values, first, we derive...
