Location selection is an essential decision problem for many industrial domains such as hotel, tourism site, energy, school, warehouse, factory, stores, retails and estate. This paper proposes the Primitive Cognitive Network Process (P-CNP) for the location selection problem considering multiple criteria. An illustrated example of hospital site selection demonstrates the usability of the propos...

The Analytic Network Process (ANP) is a generalization of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The basic structure is an influence network of clusters and nodes contained within the clusters. Priorities are established in the same way they are in the AHP using pairwise comparisons and judgment. Many decision problems cannot be structured hierarchically because they involve the interaction and ...

In many of the modern-day manufacturing industries, electrical discharge machining (EDM) now appears as an effective non-traditional material removal process for generating intricate shape geometries on various hard-to-cut work materials to meet ever-increasing demands higher dimensional accuracy and better surface quality. Development appropriate prediction model any EDM processes is quite dif...

The explosive growth in the area of computing and networking has occurred. This has caused an increased reliance on distributed computing and process operations across the networks. The main aspect in the process control across network is the network delay, which depends on the network type and protocol. This paper gives the literature review about the network-based control systems and the meth...

background global health partnerships have grown rapidly in number and scope, yet there has been less emphasis on their evaluation. gavi, the vaccine alliance, is one such public-private partnership; in gavi-eligible countries partnerships are dynamic networks of immunization actors who work together to support all stages and aspects of gavi support. this paper describes a conceptual framework ...

The process structure is a horizontal approach where instead of organizing along the product or function, the organization is structured along the key processes. Typically, a process refers to a set of related tasks and activities that work together in a predetermined sequence to transform inputs into user consumable outputs. The main challenge is to identify the core business processes which p...

drug resistance enables cancer cells to break away from cytotoxic effect of anticancer drugs. identification of resistant phenotype is very important because it can lead to effective treatment plan. there is an interest in developing classifying models of resistance phenotype based on the multivariate data. we have investigated a vibrational spectroscopic approach in order to characterize a sen...
