multi objective quadratic fractional programming (moqfp) problem involves optimization of several objective functions in the form of a ratio of numerator and denominator functions which involve both contains linear and quadratic forms with the assumption that the set of feasible solutions is a convex polyhedral with a nite number of extreme points and the denominator part of each of the object...

Handling conflicting objectives and finding multiple Pareto optimal solutions are two challenging issues in solving multiobjective optimization problems (MOPs). Inspired by the efficiency of multitask (MTO) problem (MTOP), we propose to treat MOP as a MTOP solve it using MTO. By transforming into MTOP, not only that difficulty handling can be avoided, but also MTO help efficiently find well-dis...

Objective: Tuberculosis is an important public health problem in developed and, especially, developing countries. The incidence of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB) has increased in recent years. Mycobacterial culture and susceptibility testing must be rapidly concluded for effective treatment and control of the disease. The present study evaluated the reliability of the M...

Vehicle suspension design must fulfill some conflicting criteria. Among those is ride comfort which is attained by minimizing the acceleration transmitted to the sprung mass, via suspension spring and damper. Also good handling of a vehicle is a desirable property which requires stiff suspension and therefore is in contrast with a vehicle with good ride. Among the other desirable features of a ...

In multiple objective programs [MOP], application functions are established to measure the degree of fulfillment of the decision maker’s requirements (achievement of goals, nearness to an ideal point, satisfaction, etc.) about the objective functions (see e.g. [7, 24]) and are extensively used in the process of finding ”good compromise” solutions. In [6] we demonstrated that the use of interdep...

Safety ðSÞ improvement of industrial installations leans on the optimal allocation of designs that use more reliable equipment and testing and maintenance activities to assure a high level of reliability, availability and maintainability (RAM) for their safety-related systems. However, this also requires assigning a certain amount of resources ðCÞ that are usually limited. Therefore, the decisi...

Increasing evidence suggests that µ opioid receptor (MOP) expression is altered during the development of and withdrawal from substance dependence. Although anti-MOP antibodies have been hypothesized to be useful for estimating MOP expression levels, inconsistent MOP molecular weights (MWs) have been reported in studies using anti-MOP antibodies. In the present study, we generated a new anti-MO...

There are meta-object protocols (MOPs) that do not provide support for meta-object composition. Others require explicit modi cation of existing meta-level code or provide a limited delegation mechanism in order to support it. There is much room for improvement in this eld. The MOP of Guaran a favors the development of meta-objects that can be easily composed. Composers are meta-objects that de ...

in this research, both resource allocation and reactive resource allocation problems in multi-server dynamic pert networks are analytically modeled, where new projects are expected to arrive according to a poisson process, and activity durations are also known as independent random variables with exponential distributions. such system is represented as a queuing network, where multi servers at ...
