So far, many types of location models have been developed to find optimal spatial patterns according to different spatial metrics such as cost, coverage and availability.  The initial focus of these models is on the location availability of service providers and demand estimates, and some of these models are within the framework of multi-objective programming models.  After the advent of scienc...

Any organization that develops software strives to improve the quality of its products. To do this first requires an understanding of the quality of the current product version. Then by iteratively making changes, the software can be improved with subsequent versions. But this must be done in a systematic and methodical way and for this purpose, we have developed a specific strategy called SIQi...

The gap between planning and execution is still an open problem that, despite several tries from members of both automated planning and autonomous agents communities, remains without a proper general-purpose solution. We aim to tackle this problem by using a framework for the development of multi-agent systems in both the decentralised multi-agent planning stages, and the execution stages, prov...

this paper is a research on the ordering planning of a supply chain with one supplier, multi buyer and multi deteriorating items. items have fixed life time and expire dates. the ordering period is taken as variable and must be computed the proposed models. the problem is studied via two different approaches the first is the joint replenishment, based on the hwang and chew's model [3] and ...

Highly complex learning communities where diverse participants collaborate to achieve multiple aims through synergy have the potential to be highly creative and productive. However the diversity and multiple aims can also mean the advantages of a community share understand, trust and direction are difficult to achieve, resulting in few if any of the aims being realised. We review two case studi...
