higher education plays a very vital role in developing human resources as well as economic ones in every country. in so doing, the act of evaluation would help the decision makers as well as managers to spot the weaknesses to use the required provisions to work more effectively. the present study with a different approach toward the designing a comprehensive evaluation expert system using fuzzy...

haraz-ghareh su is one of the seven sub-basins of the caspian basin, located on the southern shores of the caspian sea, and as such, is in danger of water crisis due to absence of proper systematic policy and strategy. in this study, the pressure factors on the haraz-ghareh su water resources were identified using dpsir model. then, the pressure parameters on the freshwater resources in the cas...

This paper first reviews different types of uncertainty. In order to construct fuzzy counterparts of Brownian motion and stochastic calculus, this paper proposes some basic concepts of fuzzy process, including fuzzy calculus and fuzzy differential equation. Those new concepts are also extended to hybrid process and uncertain process. A basic stock model is presented, thus opening up a way to fu...

the comprehensive assessment model considers the financial and non-financial aspects as balanced scorecard. also, for more comprehensive results of the investigation, four aspects of the balanced scorecard were used and then by using fuzzy delphi technique and experts' opinions, the standard aspects of each were achieved in two stages. to determine the importance of each aspect of bsc, the proce...

Process capability indices (PCIs) can be used as an effective tool for measuring product quality and process performance. In classic quality control there are some limitations which prevent a deep and flexible analysis because of the crisp definition of PCA‟s parameters. Fuzzy set theory can be used to add more flexibility to process capability analyses. In this study, the fuzzy X ba and MRx ba...

Statistical process control ($SPC$), an internationally recognized technique for improving product quality and productivity, has been widely employed in various industries. $SPC$ relies on the use of control charts to monitor a manufacturing process for identifying causes of process variation and signaling the necessity of corrective action for the process. Fuzzy data exist ubiquitously in the ...

today’s world economy situation forces enterprise organizations toward more soft and flexible organization, management, and production processes. they need to explore the most suitable knowledge management (km) tool not only to identify gaps and overlaps but also to maintain and support innovation cross organizations. in this study, a multiple-experts-multiple-criteria decision making model is ...

There are many situations for statistical process in which we have both random and vagueinformation. When uncertainty is due to fuzziness of information, fuzzy statistical control charts play animportant role in the monitoring process, because they simultaneously deal with both kinds of uncertainty.Dealing with fuzzy characteristics using classical methods may cause the loss of information and ...
