In this paper we presents a method for handling multiple metrics and different network parameters simultaneously to analyze the loss factor of routing protocols in mobile ad hoc network(MANET) environments. We have used Taguchi’ losses function to determine the best parameters and routing over head simultaneously for AOMDV protocol. We have consider various different mobile ad hoc network param...

Problem statement: Current world market force the manufacturing sectors to develop high quality product and process design with minimum possible cost. About 80% of problems in production units may be attributed to 20% of design tolerance causes. While design typically represents the smallest actual cost elements in products (around 5%), it leverages the largest cost influence (around 70%). So d...

Purpose – To solve the trade-offs between marketing and R&D domains and to minimize information loss in new product development (NPD), this study proposes an integrated design process as a new solution to the interface system between the two domains. Design/methodology/approach – House of Quality integrated with multivariate statistical analysis is used for determining important design features...

Sustainability, a new interdisciplinary paradigm, can be defined as standard in terms of economic, environmental and social awareness company. In many applications, theoretical sustainability models considering the importance three aspects equally differed from used practice. A sustainable supplier selection problem generally contains conflicting information imprecise decision makers’ knowledge...

This report is intended to facilitate dialogue between engineers and optimizers about the eeciency of Taguchi methods for robust design, especially in the context of design by computer simulation. Three approaches to robust design are described: 1. Robust optimization, i.e. specifying an objective function f and then minimizing a smoothed (robust) version of f by the methods of numerical optimi...

Abstract A single exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) chart is effectively used for monitoring the process mean and variance simultaneously. In this paper, three single EWMA-type control charts including sum of square EWMA (SS-EWMA), maximum EWMA (MaxEWMA), and EWMA-semicircle (EWMA-SC) charts are compared under Lorenzen and Vance’s cost model integrating Taguchi’s loss function. The o...

the principal effects of mass degradation on polymer matrix composites (pmcs) are the decay of mechanical properties such as strength, elongation, and resilience. this degradation is a common problem of the pmcs under thermal cycling conditions. in this article, composite degradation was investigated by measurement of total mass loss (tml) using the taguchi approach. thermal cycling tests were ...

In this paper, we present the use of two evolutionary algorithms to estimate fundamental matrices. We first propose a modification of the Hybrid Taguchi Genetic Algorithm (HTGA) that employs a single objective function, either geometric or algebraic distance, for optimization. We then propose to use a multi-objective optimization algorithm, Intelligent Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (IM...
