One of the basic assumptions in Bayesian inspection models is that we have some prior knowledge about the number of defects in a certain product or software system. The prior knowledge can be often described as a probability distribution (e.g., Poiss

In the classical sequential assignment problem, “machines” are to be allocated sequentially to “jobs” so as to maximize the expected total return, where the return from an allocation of job j to machine k is the product of the value xj of the

Suppose that a consumer has decided to shop around several retail stores in an attempt to find a desired product or service. From his or her past shopping experience, the shopper may know: (1) the assortment size of each store, (2) the search cost pe

The genetic algorithm (GA) and a related procedure called the grouping genetic algorithm (GGA) are solution methodologies used to search for optimal solutions in constrained optimization problems. While the GA has been successfully applied to a range

The grouping genetic algorithm (GGA), developed by Emmanuel Falkenauer, is a genetic algorithm whose encoding and operators are tailored to suit the special structure of grouping problems. In particular, the crossover operator for a GGA involves the

Construction firms specializing in large commercial buildings often purchase large steel plates, cut them into pieces and then weld the pieces into H-beams and other construction components. We formalize the material ordering and cutting problem face

A new sequencing method for mixed-model assembly lines is developed and tested. This method, called the Evolutionary Production Sequencer (EPS) is designed to maximize production on an assembly line. The performance of EPS is evaluated using three me

Evaluation measures of mixed-model assembly lines are examined. The squared deviation from linear component usage and related measures are often cited due to their apparent consistency with the goals of a just-in-time fabrication shop. This paper dev
