Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, affect thousands of people and can cause enormous financial loss. Therefore, an efficient response immediately following a natural disaster is vital to minimize the aforementioned negative effects. This research paper presents a network design model for humanitarian logistics which will assist in location and allocation decisions for multiple disaster per...

the development of optimization and mathematical models for closed loop supply chain (clsc) design has attracted considerable interest over the past decades. however, the uncertainties that are inherent in the network design and the complex interactions among various uncertain parameters are challenging the capabilities of the developed tools. the aim of this paper, therefore, is to propose a n...

in this paper, a novel approach for multi response optimization is presented. in the proposed approach, response variables in treatments combination occur with a certain probability. moreover, we assume that each treatment has a network style. because of the probabilistic nature of treatment combination, the proposed approach can compute the efficiency of each treatment under the desirable reli...

with the rapid development of the internet, the amount of information and data which are produced, are extremely massive. hence, client will be confused with huge amount of data, and it is difficult to understand which ones are useful. data mining can overcome this problem. while data mining is using on cloud computing, it is reducing time of processing, energy usage and costs. as the speed of ...
