Product-mix problems, where a range of products that generate different incomes compete for limited set production resources, are key to the success many organisations. In their deterministic forms, these simple optimisation problems; however, consideration stochasticity may turn them into analytically and/or computationally intractable problems. Thus, simulation becomes powerful approach provi...

the aim of this study is to evaluate the sport marketing mix and its seven elements (product, price, promotion, place, public relations, people, and physical evidence) in iran’s volleyball super league from the viewpoint of ministry of sport and volleyball federation managers in two conditions, namely existing and optimal. for this purpose, 102 subjects, among them the official staffs in the mi...

In this paper we use a simulation model of an existing semiconductor fab to study the effects of changes in product mix on fab performance. We observe how shortterm increases in wafer starts of a product influence the cycle time and WIP of this product and of the other products. It is examined how the fab recovers from production surges under different dispatch rules and how fab performance is ...

This paper deals with re-modelling of a fuzzy linear programming (FLP) for an optimal product-mix decision problem and its solution. Database of a chocolate exporting company has been used here to show the practicability of using the proposed model. The proposed model includes a non-linear membership function (MF), a logistic function, which resemblances the realistic behaviour of the solution....
