Studies based on British Crime Survey (BCS) data suggest that the overall incidence of workplace assault is relatively low. However, these data have a number of limitations. They include only assaults carried out by clients or the public, provide limited information about the individuals involved and their workplaces, and tell us little about perceived causes of violence at work. The 2008 Workp...

In today’s highly competitive business environment, manufacturers have to offer a great variety of products on a high quality level, in the least amount of time for an acceptable price. Therefore machine maintenance and in general, implementing an appropriate maintenance strategy has become increasingly important for manufacturing companies to accomplish these requirements. Total productive mai...

The framework is machine-translation. Compiler-building can for'a variety of reasons be considered as a special case of machine-translation. It is the purpose of this paper to explicate some techniques used in compiler-building, and to relate these to linguistic theory and to the practice of machine-translation. " The generally observed machine-translation procedure could be schernatized as in ...

The recent advances in manufacturing systems motivate several studies to focus on Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) problem. Althuogh there are several extentions to the EPQ, this paper provides a new extension by considering some of the real world parameters like: (a) shortages in the form of partial backordering, (b) inventory can deteriorate stochastically, (c) machine can break down stocha...

The Maximal Profit Model for reaching an optimal design of the production line undergoing the limitations of obtainable resources is presented in this paper. This model is treated as an integer programming problem, and an efficient step-by-step algorithm to solve this problem is also constructed. In addition, it is discussed that the operation cost of a machine does not include idle and breakdo...

This paper investigates the interaction between the economics of production and imperfections in the production process. SpeciÞcally, this paper is the Þrst to devise a model in an attempt to provide managers with guidelines to choose the appropriate production run times to buffer against both the production of defective items and stoppages occurring due to machine breakdowns. In addition to pr...

This paper aims to find errors that lead to dialogue breakdowns in chat-oriented dialogue systems. We collected chat dialogue data, annotated them with dialogue breakdown labels, and collected comments describing the error that led to the breakdown. By mining the comments, we first identified error types. Then, we calculated the correlation between an error type and the degree of dialogue break...

there exists an arrangement in 5 in which a* follows all the Oi with i<k. Such sets Ssurely exist; for example, any set of m arrangements whose terminal elements are 1, 2, • • • , m, respectively, will obviously be ^-suitable for any k^m. The smallest cardinal number N such that there exists a set of N arrangements which is ^-suitable for m will be denoted by N(m, k); this is therefore a well d...

In this paper, we have developed an economic production quantity (EPQ) model in which is executed mainly by the original machine. But when system faces disruption, buffer of it continues production. Here, incorporate a fixed Safe Period running policy, machine runs interruptedly, whenever commences. The disruption may occur at any moment time horizon over safe period, and then, will go under co...
