In this paper, single and multi container maintenance model under limited time interval of interest is introduced in fuzzy environment. These fuzzy models are solved by fuzzy geometric programming technique. Here fuzzy geometric programming is discussed through fuzzy decision-making processes with three different operators, max-min, max-average mean, and max-geometric mean. These operators are ...

Maintenance strategies are typically implemented by optimizing only the cost whilst the reliability of facility performance is neglected. This study proposes a novel algorithm using multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) technique to evaluate the cost-reliability tradeoff in a flexible maintenance strategy based on non-dominant solutions. Moreover, a probabilistic model for regress...

The continuous alignment of organizational processes with an organizations’ business strategy is a key factor to its success. This paper reports on the application of the i* framework to support the continuous alignment of corrective software maintenance processes with the strategic goals of a Software Design Maintenance Organization at Ericsson Marconi Spa. Using the i* modeling framework, ali...

Optimizing incremental view maintenance is an important problem in data warehousing. One popular technique, view self-maintenance, proposed computing the required view updates without using the underlying base relations. Traditionally, self-maintainability of a view is determined solely based on the view definition, independent of the state of the base relations. However, this “compile-time” ap...
