The subject of the paper is planning of distribution network in case of integration of distributed generation on weak medium voltage network. Because network long-term planning includes major uncertainties and integration of distributed generation has remarkable effects at these areas, final network plans may be done after the integration agreement has been concluded. In order to limit the pric...

This paper presents a computational perspective on the joint production process for speech and gesture. Based on empirical evidence indicating a mutual influence of speech and gesture in utterance production, we propose an interface between imagistic and propositional knowledge at the level of content representation. This is integrated into a generation architecture in which the planning of con...

Aggregate production–distribution planning is one of the most important activities in supply chain management(SCM). When solving the problem of APDP, we are usually faced with uncertain market demands and capacities in production environment, imprecise process times, and other factors introducing inherent uncertainty to the solution. Using deterministic and stochastic models in such conditions ...

The salmon farming production chain is structured in four consecutive phases: freshwater, seawater, plant processing, and distribution and marketing. The phases interact in a pull manner, freshwater stocks fish to meet seawater’s demand, seawater produces to meet plant processing biomass demand, and the processing plant produces to satisfy consumers’ demand. Freshwater planning decisions are in...

We study the supply chain problem of a large international pulp producer with five pulp mills located in Scandinavia. The company currently uses manual planning for most of its supply chain, which includes harvesting and transportation of pulp, production scheduling and distribution of products to customers. We have developed two new mixed integer models that determine daily supply chain decisi...

Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP), or primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, is a rare genetic disease affecting both skin and bones. Both autosomal dominant with incomplete penetrance and recessive inheritance of PDP have been previously confirmed. Recently, hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (HPGD) and solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 2A1 (SLCO2A1) were reported as pathogenic ...
