Study on Hull Optimization Process Considering Operational Efficiency in Waves

Measuring Interval Efficiency in Convex Hull of Data Using DEA

Process improvement and operational efficiency through test result autoverification.

Ϫ2 through 10 Ϫ7). The IC was consistently detected in dilutions 10 Ϫ6 through 10 Ϫ9. To determine interassay variation, we assayed 7 clinical samples positive for B. pertussis DNA within the linearity range of the assay 5 times on 5 different days (including reextraction each day). The SD calculated from the crossing points obtained was 0.08 –1.09. We determined in-traassay variation by assayi...

Operational Efficiency

The fields of engineering and management associate efficiency with how well a relevant action is performed, i.e. ‘‘doing things right’’, and effectiveness with selecting the best action, i.e. ‘‘doing the right thing’’. Thus, a firm is effective if identifies appropriate strategic goals, and efficient if it achieves them with minimal resources. This chapter focuses on operational efficiency, or ...

An Operational Planning Approach Distribution Automation Considering the Contribution of Demand Response Programs in Service Restoration Process

This paper proposes an advanced distribution automation planning problem in which emergency-based demand response plans are incorporated during service restoration process. The fitness function of this planning problem consists of various costs associated with fault occurrence in electric distribution systems consisting of the total yearly cost of customers’ interruptions, the total annualized ...

Stochastic Operational Optimization for Metallurgical Blending Process Under Uncertainty

This paper presents a stochastic operational optimization method for metallurgical blending processes by focusing on the uncertainty of composition of raw materials, where the stochastic optimization model is firstly formulated by explicitly incorporating uncertain parameters into the constraints as random variables. Then an efficient sampling technique is utilized to construct the expectation ...
