This article proposes a variable sampling interval (VSI) $\bar{X}$ control chart using weighted standard deviation (WSD) method for skewed populations. The WSD method decomposes the standard deviation of a quality characteristic into upper and lower deviations and adjusts control limits and warning limits of a control chart in accordance with the direction and degree of skewness. A control chart constant is derived for estimating the standard deviation of skewed distributions with the mean of sample standard deviations. The proposed chart is compared with the conventional VSI $\bar{X}$ control chart under some skewed distributions. Simulation study shows that the proposed WSD VSI chart can control the in-control average time to signal (ATS) as an adequate level better than the conventional VSI chart, and the proposed chart can detect a decrease in the process mean of a quality characteristic following a positively skewed distribution more quickly than the standard VSI chart.

We consider an insured who wishes to determine his optimal reporting strategy over a given planning horizon, when he has option of reporting of not reporting his at-fault accidents. Assuming that the premium in future period is continually adjusted by the insured's loss experience, the insured would not report every loss incurred. Rather, considering the benefits and costs of each decision, the insured may want to seek a way of optimizing his interests over the planning horizon. The situation is modeled as a dynamic programming problem. We consider an insured's discounted expected cost minimization problem, where the premium increase in future period is affected by the size of the current claim. More specifically, we examine two cases ; (1) the premium increase in the next is a linear function (a constant fraction) of the current claim size; (2) the premium increase in the next period is a concave function of the current claim size. In each case, we derive the insured's optimal reporting strategy.

This paper presents an EMQ model which determines an optimal production run length in a deteriorating machine. It is assumed that a machine is subject to a random deterioration from an in-control state to an out-of-control state with an arbitrary distribution and thus producing constant proportion of defective items. An average cost function and an optimal production run length are determined. A mistake in previous model is found and discussed. A mistake in previous model is found and discussed. Numerical experiments are carried out to see the behavior of the proposed model depending on the cost factors as well as machine parameters, and some interesting behaviors are observed.

This paper proposes a method of estimating the lifetime distribution at use condition for constant stress accelerated lift tests when extrinsic failure mode as well as intrinsic one exists. A mixture of two log-normal distributions is introduced to describe these failure modes and it is assumed that a linear relation exists between the location parameter and stress. An estimation procedure using the expectation and maximization algorithm is proposed and a numerical example is given.

The final product generated from the KOMPSAT-2 Terminal for Polar System, K2PS, is an ellipsoid projected image. This leaves a relief displacement on the image by process of which the height value of subject area is constant. In this paper, orthorectification using the SRTM was used to remove such artifacts, and thereafter, the additional product that could be generated from the K2PS was discussed.

Many years ago, most of thermal power plants built in this country were of subcritical pressure, of medium or small size, of constant pressure operations and of drum type steam generators with circulation type boilers. But, nowadays almost all of them were of high efficiency, of supercritical pressure, of big capacity, of sliding pressure operations, and of once through type steam generators. Presently built once through boilers introduce turbine bypass systems to variable pressure operation which eliminates unexpected materials in boiler tube during startup, minimizes fuel loss by short startup period and eventually improve both total efficiency and power system stability.

Queueing models with service can be applied in the area of performance studies of polling systems in data communication and switching systems. We provide a new approach for analysis on the cycle time of the multiqueue system consisting of statistically identical stations where at most one message is served for any station in a polling cycle. We assume an independent Posson arrival at each station. The message service time and switchover time are assumed to be constant. Based on the dependence between the stations, cycle time distribution is derived. Then, this result is validated by a computer simulation.

The logistic model and the Bass model have diverse names and formulae in diffusion theory. This diversity makes users or readers confused while it also contributes to the flexibility of modeling. The method of handling the integration constant, which is generated in process of deriving the closed form solution of the differential equation for a diffusion model, results in two different 'actual' models. We rename the actual four models and propose the usage of the models with respect to the purpose of model applications. The application purpose would be the explanation of historical diffusion pattern or the forecasting of future demand. Empirical validation with 86 historical diffusion data shows that misuse of the models can draw improper conclusions for the explanation of historical diffusion pattern.

This paper deals with two most important problems, from both practical and theoretical standpoints, arising when building the ships in docks. Such docks have become core components of modern ship construction. One problem is to minimize the number of building docks in the shipyard, while the other is to keep the usage rate of resources fed into dock as constant as possible. In this paper the combined problem is formulated as a single-integer programming model. The LP-relaxation of this model is solved by column-generation techniques. The results of an experimental evaluation show that the lower bounds are tight. Practical applications of this formulation are also discussed.

This paper deals with reliability and MTTF analysis of a non-repairable man-machine system operating under different weather conditions. The system consists of a hardware(machine) and a two-operator standby subsystem such as the air combat maneuvering of fighters with dual seat. The failure times for the subsystems follow the exponential distribution with constant parameter. By considering not only the effect on hardware component but also the weather conditions and human performance factors such as the operator's errors, a Markov model is presented as a method for evaluating the system reliability of time continuous operation tasks. Laplace transforms of the various state probabilities have been derived and then reliability of the system, at any time t, has been computed by inversion process. MTTF has also been computed.
