Statistical methods for automated document indexing are becoming an alternative to the manual assignment of keywords. We argue that the quality of the thesaurus used as a basis for indexing in regard to its ability to adequately cover the contents to be indexed and as a basis for the specific indexingmethod used is of crucial importance in automatic indexing.We present an interactive tool for t...

This paper presents a tool for MPLS network dimensioning that allows for multi-hour dimensioning of networks supporting simultaneously peer-to-peer and client-server services. The dimensioning model is able to take into account several LSP attributes: degree of survivability (link disjoint and node disjoint cases), maximum hop count, usable colours and preferred routes. The dimensioning problem...

this paper is in search of designing the cellular manufacturing systems (cmss) under dynamic and flexible environment. cm is proper for small-to-medium lot production environment that helps the companies to produce variable kind of productions with at least scraps. the most important benefits of cm are decline in material handling, reduction in work-in-process, reduction in set-up time, increme...

The costs of congestion can be measured using three approaches: the total costs, the marginal costs and the ‘excess burden’. Understanding variation in these measures with particular policies is important for planning and resource management. Assessing the cost distribution (e.g. according to priority routes or urban segments) is key to assessing the delivery of both transport objectives and wi...

SKD 11 tool steel is among the most popular metals in mold industries for making different kinds of cold work molds and dies with high accuracy and long service life. The demand for higher quality, lower manufacturing costs, particularly the environmentally friendly characteristics, have provided the stimuli for manufacturers and researchers to find alternative solutions. An excellent media is ...

The development of computerized systems in the financial industry facilitated the growth of the stock exchange market for institutional and private investors. Paperless settlement systems for stocks and bonds were first introduced in the Nordic region. The successful introduction of the new infrastructure for the securities markets was the result of solid cooperation between market participants...

In this paper, we address the question of dynamic network provisioning for time-varying traffic rates, with the objective of maximizing the system throughput. We assume that the network is capable of providing bandwidth guaranteed traffic tunnels for an ingress-egress pair and present an approach that (1) updates the tunnel routes and (2) adjusts the tunnel bandwidths, in an incremental, adapti...

With wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) several optical signals can be transferred in a single optical fiber [6][7]. This technology allows more efficient use of the huge capacity of an optical fiber but also poses new network design and management problems, especially when wavelength conversion is not possible in the nodes. In this paper we consider the routing and wavelength assignment pr...
