Proactive Operations Management: Staff Allocation with Competence Maintenance Constraints

A Framework for Web Content Management System Operations and Maintenance

Organizations increasingly utilize Web Content Management Systems (WCMS) to improve development speed, online flexibility and cost effectiveness for web applications. However, organizations lack the organizational processes and structure to effectively maintain WCMS. We propose a WCMS Process Framework for the operation and maintenance phase of Web Engineering. In this paper we elaborate on the...

Allocation of Repairable and Replaceable Components for a System Availability Using Selective Maintenance with Probabilistic Maintenance Time Constraints

In this paper, we obtain optimum allocation of replaceable and repairable components in a system design. When repair and replace time are considered as random in the constraints. We convert probabilistic constraint into an equivalent deterministic constraint by using chance constrained programming. We have used the selective maintenance policy to determine how many components to be replaced & r...

Theory of constraints: a theory for operations management

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to suggest that the theory of constraints (TOC) can serve as a general theory in operations management. The paper first investigate linkages between TOC and the core concepts/components of operations management (OM) and show how OM concepts can be integrated with TOC using examples from the published TOC literature. A second important purpose is to show th...

Modeling of Maintenance Operations

Operations and Maintenance 2

Large computer systems consist of many parts, only some of which contribute directly to the application for which the system was built. This collection of patterns describes several capabilities of a system that perform this background, supporting role. The roles of these patterns is to aid in application specific data, performance and health measurements, managing faults, and also managing the...
