Labour Use and Its Adjustment in Indian Manufacturing Industries This study provides an empirical investigation of the adjustment process of labour in Indian manufacturing industries, which evolved through structural transformation in the era of globalization. The analysis is based on a dynamic model applied to a panel of 22 two-digit manufacturing industries for the time period of 22 years cov...

conclusions results showed that sexual dysfunction is a prevalent disorder in opioid-dependent males. addiction withdrawal centers should be warned about the dysfunction caused by opioids and, from a clinical perspective, it is imperative that patients misusing opiates and those treated with methadone are routinely asked about their sexual functioning so that, if indicated, appropriate investig...

regarding the importance and high proportion of iranian manufacturing industries' export in nonoil export basket, and their impact on economic growth, it is essential that effective factors on the manufacturing industries' export be investigated. this paper investigates the impact of human capital on the export of iranian industries, using a panel data set of 2-digit isic manufacturing industri...

Cloud manufacturing (CM) is an open and service-oriented platform that virtualizes distributed design, manufacturing, and assembling resources together in order to provide a seamless, stable, and high quality transaction of manufacturing procedures. Despite the rich results in resource discovery and matching, the research in robustness and security of the systems falls behind in many aspects. T...

machine-part family formation is one of major applications of group technology (gt). the machine cell formation problem in cellular manufacturing system (cms) involves the decomposition of the manufacturing system into machine cells. part families are identified such that they are fully processed within a machine cell. the problem of cell design is a very complex task with wide ranging implicat...

dynamic cellular manufacturing systems,   mixed-integer non-linear programming,   production planning, manufacturing attributes   this paper presents a novel mixed-integer non-linear programming model for the design of a dynamic cellular manufacturing system (dcms) based on production planning (pp) decisions and several manufacturing attributes. such an integrated dcms model with an extensive c...

Based on the surveys and investigation of 62 manufacturing companies in China, the paper analyzes the current status of quality management in Chinese manufacturing industry and probes the problems and their root causes. It presents strategies for improving quality management for Chinese manufacturing industry.

Teaching Environmentally Benign Manufacturing (EBM) presents the general challenges of teaching an application rather than a discipline. This is not too different from the challenges of teaching manufacturing about ten years ago. In that case we could rely heavily on successful practice and then develop principles to explain those successes. The principal success at that time was the Toyota Pro...
