  Managing products’ end-of-life and recovery of used products is gaining significant importance during last years. Therefore, managing the reverse flow of products can be an important potential for winning consumers in future competitive markets. In this context, establishing reverse logistics networks is becoming a main problem in reverse supply chains. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is utilized to s...

To understand the mechanism of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), an autoimmune demyelinating disease, the researchers developed an experimental animal model for MS, which is called EAE (Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis). There are several methods for inducing this animal model. In this research the active EAE, which is developed by injecting bovine myelin antigens into genetically susceptibl...

In this current study a generalized super-efficiency model is first proposed for ranking extreme efficient decision making units (DMUs) in stochastic data envelopment analysis (DEA) and then, a deterministic (crisp) equivalent form of the stochastic generalized super-efficiency model is presented. It is shown that this deterministic model can be converted to a quadratic programming model. So fa...

this paper presents a multi-attribute decision-making model to rank and select the best zones of the city of tehran in order to add new emergency services. the purpose of this decision-making problem is to prioritize the zones having a higher need to emergency services, so that the emergency services to people in different zones get optimized. a multi-criteria decision making model is presented...
