چکیده

Software variability modeling is a complex task. To manage this complexity, we introduce an approach called Svamp. The main contribution of Svamp is to model concepts through ontologies and offer tool support for capturing functional and quality variability in software product family architectures. Variability description languages are defined by different ontologies that provide meta-models. For structural and functional descriptions, the concepts, properties, and rules are defined by Kumbang ontology. Quality Attribute ontology defines the domain knowledge of a specific quality attribute, while Quality Variability ontology provides the concepts and rules related to quality variation. The approach is exemplified by our integrated tool suite, provided as a plug-in for the Eclipse platform.

Monitoring process variability: a hybrid Taguchi loss and multiobjective genetic algorithm approach

The common consideration on economic model is that there is knowledge about the risk of occurrence of an assignable cause and the various cost parameters that does not always adequately describe what happens in practice. Hence, there is a need for more realistic assumptions to be incorporated. In order to reduce cost penalties for not knowing the true values of some parameters, this paper aims ...

Z-Cognitive Map: An Integrated Cognitive Maps and Z-Numbers Approach under Cognitive Information

Usually, in real-world engineering problems, there are different types of uncertainties about the studied variables, which can be due to the specific variables under investigation or interaction between them. Fuzzy cognitive maps, which addresses the cause-effect relation between variables, is one of the most common models for better understanding of the problems, especially when the quantitati...

MODELING RISK OF LOSING A CUSTOMER IN A TWO-ECHELON SUPPLY CHAIN FACING AN INTEGRATED COMPETITOR: A GAME THEORY APPROACH

In a competitive market, customer decision is made to maximize his utility. It can be assumed that risk of losing a supply chain’s customer can be defined based on products utility from customer point of view. This paper takes account of product price and service level as competition criteria. The proposed model is based on non-cooperative game theory, for one-manufacturer and one-retailer supp...

Modeling in Early Stages of Technology Development: Is an Iterative Approach Needed?; Comment on “Problems and Promises of Health Technologies: The Role of Early Health Economic Modeling”

A recent paper by Grutters et al makes the case for early health economic modeling in the development of health technologies. A number of examples of the value of early modeling are given, with analyses being performed at different stages in the development of several non-drug health technologies. This commentary acknowledges the contribution of the paper by Grutters et...

Mathematical Modeling for an Integrated Inventory System with Two-level Trade Credit and Random Defectiveness in Transport

Modern business environment focuses on improving the operational efficiency of supplier, retailer and customers through integrating their inventory. Although a smoothly running integrated inventory system is ideal, the reality is to deal with imperfectness in transportation. In actual production environments, inventory items are not perfect and defectiveness occurs in random process.  In this p...
