this paper presents a deterministic approach for performance assessment of different province’s road safety level at iran. a data envelopment analysis (dea) model considering undesirable input and output indices and a multivariate statistical method, principle component analysis (pca) are used in this paper, while previous studies do not use composite pca-dea method and undesirable input and ou...

iranian industries are increasingly concerned with sustainable development by controlling their impacts on environment. iranian automotive industries have began conducting environmental management within a structured management system based on iso 14001 international standard since 1997. iran khodro co. (ikco), the largest iranian automotive manufacturer, implemented ems entire the company in 2...

background: the measurement data regarding the influent and effluent of wastewater treatment plant (wwtp) provides a general overview, demonstrating an overall performance of wwtp. nevertheless, these data do not provide the suitable operational information for the optimization of individual units involved in a wwtp. a full-scale evolution of wwtp was carried out in this study via a reconciled ...

Performance evaluation tools play an important role in helping understand application performance, diagnose performance problems and guide tuning decisions on modern HPC systems. Tools to observe parallel performance must evolve to keep pace with the ever-increasing complexity of these systems. In this paper, we describe our experience in building novel tools and techniques in the TAU Performan...

This review paper gives as details and overall review of methodologies and present scenario related to student’s academic performance evaluation for the development of better understanding. The present paper elaborates several aspects of students performance evaluation (prediction of student performance, modeling student performance from available data and grouping student on need base criteria...

A hybrid approach that utilizes both statistical techniques and empirical methods seeks to provide more information about the performance of an application. In this paper, we present a general approach to creating hybrid models of this type. We show that for the scienti c applications of interest, the scaled performance is somewhat predictable due to the regular characteristics of the measured ...
