The advent of the fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) requires wireless networked solutions to connect machines. However, industrial environment is notorious for being averse communication, with traditional resource mechanisms prone errors because metallic objects. In this work, we propose exploit knowledge location derive context information and dynamically allocate resources in <itali...

Surveying programs of study at institutions higher learning throughout the world reveals that one natural disciplinary coupling is statistics and operations research, although these two specific disciplines currently lack an active synergistic research interface. Similarly, development spatial optimization has occurred in parallel nearly isolation. This paper seeks to alter this situation by in...

Resource allocation techniques have recently appeared as a widely recognized feature in LTE networks. Most of existing approaches in resource allocation focus on maximizing network’s utility functions. The great potential of utility function in improving resource allocation and enhancing fairness and mean opinion score (MOS) indexes has attracted large efforts over the last few years. In this p...

in this paper, a location allocation (la) problem in construction and demolition (c&d;) waste management (wm) is studied. a bi-level model for this problem under a fuzzy random environment is presented where the upper level is the governments who sets up the processing centers, and the lower level are the administrators of different construction projects who control c&d; waste and the after tre...

this paper offers an approach that could be useful for diverse types of layout problems or even area allocation problems. by this approach there is no need to large number of discrete variables and only by few continues variables large-scale layout problems could be solved in polynomial time. this is resulted from dividing area into discrete and continuous dimensions. also defining decision var...

Hub location problems, with the hub-and-spoke network structure, involve locating hub facilities, allocating the non-hubs (spokes) to the hubs, and determining the path for each origin-destination pair. In a pure hub-and-spoke network, all hubs, which act as intermediate switching or transshipment points for internodal flows, are fully interconnected and none of the non-hubs are directly connec...

system designs, optimizing resource allocation to organization units, is still being considered as a complicated problem especially when there are multiple inputs and outputs related to a unit. the algorithm presented here will divide the frontiers obtained with dea. in this way, we investigate a new approach for resource allocation.
