Whereas dependence of set up times to sequence is more common in practice. Hence, in this paper, we examine the discussed problem with hypothesis of dependence of set up times to sequence and cyclic schedule policy in basic period form. To do so, a mixed integer non-linear programming (NLP) model is developed for this problem. To solve the model these techniques are applied: Heuristic G-group for determining the frequency of item production and assigning product to periods and three meta heuristic methods including hybrid Particle swarm optimization , hybrid Vibration damping optimization hybrid genetic algorithm are used to determine the sequence and economic lot sizes of each item. In addition, to compare these methods, some random problems are produced and computation of them shows the substantial superiority of hybrid Particle swarm optimization.}, keywords = {Flow shop,Determining lot sizes,Finite planning horizon,Hybrid particle swarm optimization,Basic period}, url = {https://www.jise.ir/article_4038.html}, eprint = {https://www.jise.ir/article_4038_de303b55b1822dc511245cdf90675d24.pdf} } @article { author = {Arunkumar, Natesan and Karunamoorthy, Loganathan and Muthukumar, Sambandam}, title = {A method of identifying suitable manufacturing system (Cellular) for automotive sector using Analytical Hierarchy Process}, journal = {Journal of Industrial and Systems Engineering}, volume = {5}, number = {1}, pages = {20-34}, year = {2011}, publisher = {Iranian Institute of Industrial Engineering}, issn = {1735-8272}, eissn = {2717-3380}, doi = {}, abstract = {Manufacturing produces real wealth for any country and constitutes the back bone for the service sector. The objective of any organization is to earn profit. Usually the market fixes the selling price of the manufactured components. Unless there is focus on the manufacturing strategy of reducing manufacturing cost, it is very difficult to sustain in this ever competitive world. A suitable manufacturing system will help in minimizing the cost of production. The suitable manufacturing system should focus on customer satisfaction by finding out the customer’s requirement in terms of quantity, quality, and schedule. A survey of existing literature on evaluation of advanced manufacturing systems indicates that the traditional manufacturing approaches are inadequate for the purpose. Typically new technologies require very high investments, so it is important to identify and justify the manufacturing system suitable for the particular manufacturing industry. In this paper an attempt has been made to overcome the deficiencies of traditional manufacturing system by presenting an approach to determine and account for the justification of the cellular manufacturing system using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP).}, keywords = {Cellular Manufacturing,Advantages of CM,AHP,justification,Manufacturing system}, url = {https://www.jise.ir/article_4039.html}, eprint = {https://www.jise.ir/article_4039_2255c9099b0270c1bef5e2c6058b823f.pdf} } @article { author = {Murray, Susan L. and Grantham, Katie and Damle, Siddharth B.}, title = {Development of a Generic Risk Matrix to Manage Project Risks}, journal = {Journal of Industrial and Systems Engineering}, volume = {5}, number = {1}, pages = {35-51}, year = {2011}, publisher = {Iranian Institute of Industrial Engineering}, issn = {1735-8272}, eissn = {2717-3380}, doi = {}, abstract = {A generic risk matrix is presented for use identifying and assessing project risks quickly and cost effectively.

The matrix assists PMs in quickly identifying risks and can serve as a basis for contingency planning to minimize cost and schedule overruns. It is suitable for a wide variety of projects and can be modified for specific types of projects using historical data or expert opinion.

The retailer faces a Poisson demand with a known rate and applies base stock (one-for-one ordering) policy. That is, his inventory position is set to a pre-determined level, so the demand pattern is transferred exactly to the supplier. The supplier has an inventory system and a service unit with exponentially distributed service time to process the orders received from the retailer. Supplier also follows a base stock policy, and its lead time is exponentially distributed. When the supplier has some on-hand inventory, an arriving order from retailer joins the queue. But when the supplier has no on-hand inventory, the retailer does not accept any demand, i.e. the demand is lost. When the retailer has no on-hand inventory but the supplier has on-hand inventory, the arriving demand to the retailer will be backordered. For this system, we derive the steady state joint distributions of the ‘number of retailers order in service unit and the ‘on-hand inventory of the supplier’ and show that it has a product form. Furthermore, we derive the total expected system cost per unit time. After convexity analysis of the cost function, we derive the optimal inventory policy of supplier and retailer. Finally a numerical example is provided.}, keywords = {Inventory,Queueing system,Tow-echelon supply chain,Base stock policy}, url = {https://www.jise.ir/article_4041.html}, eprint = {https://www.jise.ir/article_4041_c97aa6585f8ee8142d71e7fa8fdb3063.pdf} }
