A production line with random processing times and no interstation buffers is considered. The jobs are scheduled cyclically , i.e., a batch of n jobs is repititively using the same order of jobs in every batch. Processing time of a job on a station is assumed to have a phase-type distribution....

In This paper we address the scheduling problem in uppaced synchronous mixed-model production lines operated under a cyclic scheduling policy. Synchronous lines are widely used in the production and assemply of various products such as automobiles and household part.

We consider Markovian models of discrete materials flow production systems. The transient behavior of a production line is investigated. Namely, mean and variance of the number of parts produced in a given time period conditioned on an arbitrary initial condition is determined by using a Markov...

This paper presents a method for calculating the variance of the amount of materials produced in a fixed time interval by a contious materials flow production system with N stations in series and M stations in parallel and no interstation buffers.

We consider production systems that can be modeled as Markov chains. A methodology to determine the exact distribution of the number of parts produced by a production system during a fixed time interval and also the exact distribution of the time to produce a given number of parts is presented....

This paper presents a complete framework for testing procedure based on statistical theory of Markov chains.

Bu çalışma Türkiye’deki parasal aktarım mekanizmasında para’nın rolünü incelemektedir. Çalışmamız Carpenter ve Demiralp (2007)’in yapmış olduğu araştırmayı bütünleyici niteliktedir. Carpenter ve Demiralp (2007) gelişmiş finansal piyasalarda banka kredilerinin zorunlu...

An economic signalling model contributing to the explanation of religious schism is presented. Religious groups are interpreted as a device for exchanging information about and via others. Two effects result. First, the larger the network, the worse the signal quality one receives of the type of...

Turkish Statistics Institution (TUIK) has formed input-output tables for various years. For example, in the years 1959, 1963, 1968, 1973, 1979, 1985, 1990 and 1998, input-output tables and, in relation to them, coefficient matrices and Leontief inverse matrices were formed. Although all these...

The Aegean Region, which is the focus of this study, is the second most developed region of Turkey. Its share in the GDP has remained relatively stable around 17 percent during 1990-2000 periods according to data provided by State Planning Organization of Turkey. The region enjoys a number of...
