applying robust optimization to solve product mix problem in automotive industries in this article, applying robust optimization in product mix problem in automotive industries is presented. the problem includes determining both the quantity and the identification of each product to produce to maximize profit. at first, the deterministic model will be presented. then, robust model of product mi...

we use many kinds of combinations of raw materials and production levels in producing composite materials. testing all the states are difficult or even impossible. taguchi method is a numerical method which predicts optimum state of composite materials using special orthogonal arrays. in this research we have discussed useablity of this method and its’ potential in finding optimum mix design of...

As the Internet continues to grow both in size and in terms of the volume of traffic it carries, more and more networks in the different parts of the world are relying on an increasing number of distinct ways to exchange traffic with one another. As a result, simple questions such as “What is the application mix in today’s Internet?” may produce non-informative simple answers unless they are re...

introduction: increasing pressure on available funds in health care section especially hospitals, enhances the need of analyzing different strategies in economic terms. one of the solutions for the optimal use of financial resources and potentials in hospitals and health care centers is using elements of the marketing mix. in this way we could make the best use of the resources and cause a retu...

One of the solutions for the problem of white spot lesions has been the application of a polymer coating to the labial enamel surface. The aim of this study is to find out whether the liquid polish BisCover affects the bond strength of brackets bonded with a light-cured system (Transbond XT) and a no-mix system (Unite). Standard stainless steel premolar brackets were bonded to 100 permanent hum...

The study evaluated the effect of a novel commercial preparation of natural blend of essential oils from basil, caraway, laurel, lemon, oregano, sage, tea, and thyme (Tecnaroma Herbal Mix PL) on growth performance, blood biochemistry, cecal morphology, and carcass quality of broilers. Six nutritionally adequate wheat and soybean-based diets were generated by the addition of Tecnaroma Herbal Mix...

A system for metabolic activation of cyclophosphamide (CP), consisting of a crude microsomal fraction of mouse liver and necessary cofactors (S9 mix), was interfaced with three murine cell culture assays for immunotoxicity. These assays were: the Mishell-Dutton assay for in vitro antibody formation, splenic lymphocyte responsiveness to mitogens and bone marrow cell cultures. There was no effect...

The contribution of this paper is twofold. First we present a new simple electronic voting scheme having standard re-encryption mix net back-end, which allows to cast a ballot and verify its correctness in a new way. Then we extend the proposed scheme to represent a new very efficient mix network construction. We called our mix network to be self-proving mix, because it is shown how mix process...
