Precis: This paper estimates capacity output for Irish manufacturing industry using the Wharton School linked-peaks method, updating an index produced in McMahon and Smyth (1974). It then pre­ sents a capacity output series using a production function approach. This approach involves estimating a production function and then replacing the actual values of the inputs with estimated full capacity...

Nanoemulsion is an alternative and promising approach to overcome insolubility and bioavailability problems of bioactive compounds. In this study, the sonication parameter for preparing nanoemulsions with high α- tocopherol and linolenic acid content were optimized by using response surface methodology and their stability were evaluated during 2 months’ storage. The response surface analysis re...

This research presents a new application of the cloud theory-based simulated annealing algorithm to solve mixed model assembly line sequencing problems where line stoppage cost is expected to be optimized. This objective is highly significant in mixed model assembly line sequencing problems based on just-in-time production system. Moreover, this type of problem is NP-hard and solving this probl...

Come with us to read a new book that is coming recently. Yeah, this is a new coming book that many people really want to read will you be one of them? Of course, you should be. It will not make you feel so hard to enjoy your life. Even some people think that reading is a hard to do, you must be sure that you can do it. Hard will be felt when you have no ideas about what kind of book to read. Or...

To meet the growing food demand of Bangladesh requires efficiently use of inputs and effectively manage of production practices at the farm level. Thus, the present study aims to measure the technical efficiency and establish core factors affecting boro and aman rice production in Bangladesh. The study employed mainly farm level data collected from 80 farm households selected randomly in Dinajp...

The functional programming community is paying increasing attention to static structure-based transformations. For example, generic control operators , such as fold, have been introduced in functional programming to increase the power and applicability of a particular kind of static transformation, called deforestation, which prevents the construction of useless intermediate data structures in ...
