This study deals with a two-level supply chain consisting of one manufacturer and one retailer. We consider an integrated production inventory system where the manufacturer processes raw materials in order to deliver finished product with imperfect quality to the retailer, where number of defective product has a uniform distribution. The retailer receives product and conducts a 100% inspection....

the main goal of this study was to investigate the way of affecting of water in production of cucumber. from aspect of econometrics, mutual relationships of production function and expenses have been analyzed in which translog cost function has been used. this function has been estimated using the conditional input demand functions, the shefard theorem, chemical fertilizer, animal fertilizer, l...

Transnational companies, operating in extremely competitive global markets, always seek to lower different operating costs, such as inventory holding costs in their intra- supply chain system. This paper incorporates a cost reducing product distribution policy into an intra-supply chain system with multiple sales locations and quality assurance studied by [Chiu et al., Expert Syst Appl, 40:2669...

A manufacturing inventory model with shortages with carrying cost, shortage cost, setup cost and demand quantity as imprecise numbers, instead of real numbers, namely interval number is considered here. First, a brief survey of the existing works on comparing and ranking any two interval numbers on the real line is presented. A common algorithm for the optimum production quantity (Economic lot-...

Variation is inevitable in any process, so it has to be dealt with effectively and economically. It has been the focal point of many researchers to control, predict or reduce the variation of a product to increase its competitiveness in the current global marketplace. Reducing variation can be achieved in assembly lines strategically and dynamically. It can be reduced strategically by developin...

Quality is a critical attribute of software. A software process with sophisticated design and analysis would benefit the quality of the output software greatly. To enhance the quality of a software process, some quality assurance activities need to be incorporated into the process. As a consequence, the quantity of rework activities as well as the cost and duration of the process would be incre...

This paper derives the optimal production-shipment policy for a vendor-buyer integrated system with imperfect quality and an amending product delivery plan using an algebraic method. It is assumed that the system may randomly produce certain portion of nonconforming products during each production run. Quality assurance in terms of inspection and rework has been given effect to the defective it...

With the upcoming European ROHS legislation and other global movements to lead-free assembly, the NEMI lead-free rework group investigated and developed lead-free rework processes for medium to high-end computer products. The work concentrated on development of lead-free hot air convection rework for PBGA, CBGA, and uBGA, and lead-free hand soldering rework for TSOP and 2512 chip components on ...

Abstract In this current era, the concept of nonlinearity plays an important and essential role in intuitionistic fuzzy arena. This article portrays impression different representation nonlinear pentagonal number (PIFN) its classification under scenarios. A new de-intuitification technique non-linear PIFN is addressed along with various graphical representations. Additionally, paper, we have ob...
