A ROBUST OPTIMIZATION MODEL FOR BLOOD SUPPLY CHAIN NETWORK DESIGN

The eternal need for humans' blood as a critical commodity makes the healthcare systems attempt to provide efficient blood supply chains (BSCs) by which the requirements are satisfied at the maximum level. To have an efficient supply of blood, an appropriate planning for blood supply chain is a challenge which requires more attention. In this paper, we address a mixed integer linear programming...

Optimization Schemes For Wireless Sensor Network Localization

Many applications of wireless sensor networks (WSN) require information about the geographical location of each sensor node. Self-organization and localization capabilities are one of the most important requirements in sensor networks. This paper provides an overview of centralized distance-based algorithms for estimating the positions of nodes in a sensor network. We discuss and compare three ...

An Effective RSU Allocation Strategy for Maximizing Vehicular Network Connectivity

Roadside Unit (RSU) in Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is an essential unit usually placed at intersections to collect and analyze traffic data given from smart vehicles. Due to the costs of RSU setup, effective RSU allocation is one of important issues in VANET. In this paper, we provide an optimal RSU allocation algorithm with a concept of intersectionconnectivity between intersections. We i...

A Simulation-Based Optimization Model for Scheduling New Product Development Projects in Research and Development Centers

a simulation-based optimization approach for the purpose of finding a near-optimal answer can be efficient and effective. In the present paper, first, the mathematical model for the project activity scheduling problem has been presented with a job shop approach. Then, using the Arena 14 software, the simulation model has been designed. Consequently, a numerical example has been solved via runni...
