the purpose of this study is designing a model to determine important factors on export performance (ep) in the base of cost leadership strategy for non_ metal mineral industry of iran. in this paper, available approaches in the scope of determinants of ep are identified consist of contingency view, relational and resource based view. in this study, we examine relationship between resources, co...

Extensive research has been devoted to economic production quantity (EPQ) problem. However, little atten-tion has been paid to problems where depreciation cost and process quality cost must be considered, simulta-neously. In this paper, we consider the economic production quantity model of minimizing the annual total cost subject to depreciation cost and process quality cost, where depreciation...

HPV vaccine has been recently added to the Iran Drug List, so decision makers need information beyond that available from RCTs to recommend funding for this vaccination. Modeling and economic studies have addressed some of those information needs. We reviewed cost effectiveness studies to find a suitable model for Iranian population to determine the potential cost effectiveness of HPV vaccine p...

T he welfare cost of inflation in a new Keynesian model has been studied in this article. Nominal prices and wages are subjected to Rotenberg's adjustments in the benchmark model. In addition, this study uses the CIA model to compare the welfare cost of seigniorage tax and consumption tax. The model is calibrated for the Iranian economy and the results of the calibration are as follow...

in the fundamental production inventory model, in order to solve the economic production quantity (epq) we always fix both the demand quantity and the production quantity per day. but, in the real situation, both of them probably will have little disturbances every day. therefore, we should fuzzify both of them to solve the economic production quantity (q*) per cycle. using α-cut for defuzzific...

decision making on budgeting is one of the most important issues for executing managers. budgeting is a major tool for planning and control of projects. in public and non-profit organizations and institutions, estimating the costs and revenues plays an important role in receiving credit and budgeting. in this regard, in the present paper the case of isfahan municipality is considered. one of th...

  We discuss the effects of inflation and time discounting on an EOQ model for deteriorating items under stock-dependent demand and time-dependent partial backlogging. The inventory model is studied under the replenishment policy starting with no shortages. We then use MATLAB to find the optimal replenishment policies. The objective of this model is to maximize the total profit (TP) which inclu...

bus systems are unstable without considering any control. thus, we are able to consider some control strategies to alleviate this problem. a holding control strategy is one commonly used real-time control strategy that can improve service quality. this paper develops a mathematical model for a holding control strategy. the objective of this model is to minimize the total cost related to passeng...

risk management is one of the nine project management processes, which provides positive results and minimizes the probability and consequences of adverse effects in the project.  in this article a zero-one linear programming model with multiple objectives is used to characterize the potential risks. the proposed model has two main objectives. the first objective is the minimization of the expe...
