Calculating total cast of bank resources procurement methods which include current -free loan deposit, saving interest-free loan deposit, regular and net short-term investment deposit, long-term investment deposit and surety bond cash deposit and presenting their optimal integration require precise scientific studies. Hence, this study is an attempt to know which methods are the best optimal in...

collection of municipal solid waste (msw) accounts for a significant proportion of most municipal budgets, and has drawn some degree of researchers‟ interest. this study was conducted in ota, southwest nigeria, to explore the use of visual basic program as an innovative tool to select the most economic haulage system among three systems found in literature (conventional-, modified- and stationa...

the most costly operation in the oil exploration is the well network drilling. one of the most effectiveways to reduce the cost of drilling networks is decreasing the number of the required wells byselecting the optimum situation of the rig placement. in this paper, balas algorithm is used as a modelfor optimizing the cost function in oil well network, where the vertical and directional drillin...

One of the central problems for near-term quantum devices is to understand their ultimate potential and limitations. We address this problem in terms error mitigation by introducing a framework taking into account full expressibility devices, which optimal resource cost probabilistic cancellation method can be formalized. provide general methodology evaluating connecting it resource-theoretic q...

The cost of an optimal delete relaxed plan, known as h+, is a powerful admissible heuristic but in general intractable to compute. In this paper we examine the problem computing h+ by encoding it MAXSAT problem. We develop new that utilizes constraint generation support computation sequence increasing lower bounds on h+. show close connection between computations performed recent approach for s...

Utilization of energy storage system (ESS) in microgrids has turned to be necessary in recent years and now with the improvement of storage technologies, system operators are looking for an exact modeling and calculation for optimal sizing of ESS. In the proposed paper, optimal size of ESS is determined in a microgrid considering demand response program (DRP) and reliability criterion. Both lar...

Traditionally, the earthmoving operations have been developed based on the minimum cost per production criterion. Nowadays, due to the negative impacts of the emissions on the environment, there is an increasing public awareness to reduce the emissions from the earthmoving operations. Different management strategies can be employed to reduce emissions, amongst other things, which can also resul...

  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...
