due to project evaluation complexity and resource constraints, the project portfolio optimization is numerous decision making challenges. hence, many researches have been done to introduce model and methods for portfolio optimization. but most of them have not considered the interaction between projects. considering the interactions between projects increase complexity of portfolio optimization...

an integrative approach of data envelopment analysis (dea) and malmquist productivity indicator for performance analysis of projects in subsea r&d; center (srdc) is presented. it is noticeable that, an output based model with constant efficiency was used for data analysis. furthermore, since the dea approach is merely used for homogeneous units, it was assumed that all the projects according to...

We present advances concerning efficient finite element assembly and linear solvers on current and upcoming HPC architectures obtained in the frame of the EXA-DUNE project, part of the DFG priority program 1648 Software for Exascale Computing (SPPEXA). In this project, we aim at the development of both flexible and efficient hardware-aware software components for the solution of PDEs based on t...

OBJECTIVE A collaborative project between Hull CHCP and Smith and Nephew wound management, which sought to enhance practice efficiency, specifically in relation to the optimisation of dressing change frequency. The project involved the use of a new foam dressing (Allevyn Life, Smith & Nephew, Hull) designed to manage wound exudate more effectively, be more acceptable to patients by masking stai...

SIMPROJECTTM is a useful simulation tool structured to follow the project lifecycle aiding students in understanding how projects are managed. In practice, students learn to conceptualize, plan, execute, and terminate projects during the entire project life cycle. In reality, students lack an appreciation of the importance of planning and how to evaluate project information. While, SIMPROJECTTM...

The lack of integrated project control techniques covering both qualitative and quantitative indices is one of the most important reasons leading to unfinished projects under predetermined schedules and expected budgets. Two modern techniques proposed in project control—the critical chain method and buffer management (CCM/BM), and the earned value analysis or earned value management and earned ...

Project TRANSPROSE is a comprehensive research project investigating techniques for transporting programs securely over potentially insecure channels. The central focus of this project is the development of a blueprint for a next-generation mobile-code distribution format. A problem of previous approaches to mobile-code security has been that the additional provisions for security lead to a los...

Most project-based industries such as construction, shipbuilding, and software development etc. should generate and manage project network for successful project planning. We suggest a set of criteria of good project network generator such as network generation efficiency, quality of network, and economics of system development. For the efficiency of the planning, the first criterion, we decide...

the major aim of this research is benchmarking honeywell federal manufacturing &technologies; projects using data envelopment analysis (dea) technique and to compare the results with that of published recently in qing cao, james j. hoffman qing cao, james j. hoffman. (2011). a case study approach for developing a project performance evaluation system. international journal of project management...
