This study proposes a fuzzy inventory model for managing large-scale production, incorporating cost considerations. The model accounts for two types of expenditure scenarios-parametric and exponential. Uncertainty surrounds holding costs, setup costs, and demand rates. The approach considers a supply chain system with a complex manufacturing process, factoring in transportation costs based on the quantity of goods and distance between the supplier and retailer. The initial crisp model is then transformed into a fuzzy simulation, incorporating specific fuzzy variables affecting inventory costs. The proposed method significantly reduces overall inventory costs for the entire supply chain. Retailer demand is linked to inventory levels, and vendor/distributor storage deteriorates over time. The fuzzy condition assumes hexagonal variables for all associated factors. The study employs the signed distance method for defuzzification to determine the optimal order quantity with hexagonal fuzzy numbers. Mathematical examples are provided to illustrate the practicality of the proposed approach.

Two location algorithm (TLA) considers two location areas (LAs) to track the location of a mobile station (MS). The TLA significantly outperforms the single location algorithm when the call-to-mobility ratio (CMR) is low (i.e., the user moves more frequently than to receive calls). However, because of the paging cost for the users moving back to the previously visited LA, the performance of the TLA degrades when the CMR is high. To reduce those paging cost, we propose the new algorithm called TLA with call information (TLAC). In TLAC, we use the location information of the MS within the setup message when the MS originates a call in the previously visited LA. Through the setup message, the system can know the exact location of the MS without the additional location registration operation, and the paging cost for the arriving calls in the visited LA can be reduced. An analytical model is proposed to compare the TLAC and previous TLA protocol. Our study indicates that the TLAC always guarantees better performance than the TLA. We also observe that the TLAC is much better than the TLA when the CMR is high.

Use of ready-made orthodontic appliance can lead to inefficiencies in the final stages of the orthodontic treatment. Because patients' teeth have anatomic variations, brackets that have been designed to fit on average tooth surface may result in positional discrepancies when leveling and alignment is completed. As a result, additional steps such as rebonding, wire bending and use of auxiliaries may be needed. Even in patients who have normal tooth anatomy and proper tooth size relationships, precise bracket placement is crucial in order to efficiently control the tooth positions. Digital models can provide advantages in clinical orthodontics as virtual tooth setup could be performed, and clinicians can easily visualize the predicted final occlusion. Through this setup model, customized brackets with individualized prescription and archwires that optimally fit with the patients' dental arches can be produced using CAD/CAM technology. Also, the brackets can be accurately placed with an aid of 3D-printed jigs. The purpose of this article is to introduce the commonly used labial and lingual customized orthodontic appliance systems using digital technology.

This paper studies Bayesian test of homogeneity in contingency tables made by discretizing a continuous variable. Sometimes when we are considering events of interest in small area setup, we can think of discretization approaches about the continuous variable. If we properly discretize the continuous variable, we can find invisible relationships between areas (groups) and a continuous variable of interest. The proper discretization of the continuous variable can support the alternative hypothesis of the homogeneity test in contingency tables even if the null hypothesis was not rejected through k-sample tests involving one-way ANOVA. In other words, the proportions of variables with a particular level can vary from group to group by the discretization. If we discretize the the continuous variable, it can be treated as an analysis of the contingency table. In this case, the chi-squared test is the most commonly employed method. However, further discretization gives rise to more cells in the table. As a result, the count in the cells becomes smaller and the accuracy of the test becomes lower. To prevent this, we can consider the Bayesian approach and apply it to the setup of the homogeneity test.

In this paper, for signal integrity analysing high-speed signal between a processor and a DDR2 memory, transient analysis is done and eye diagrams are generated using IBIS models of IC chips and S-parameters of transmission line. From the eye diagrams of such high-speed signals as DQ, DQS/DQSb, Clock, Address and Control, signal quality is assured through measuring timing and voltage margins during setup and hold times and verifying that the over-/under-shoot and the cross points of differential signals satisfy their specifications.

The present paper describes the setup of standard partial discharge calibrator for measuring partial discharge and estimating uncertainties. The standard PD calibrator was designed and set up, consisting of a digital pulse generator, capacitor modules, and a digital oscilloscope controlled by software developed in the laboratory. Using this software, averages of charges and rising times and their standard deviations in the measured pulses can also be calculated. The standard PD calibrator generates five types of pulses: single, double, random, oscillating, and long-rising. The coefficient sensitivities to estimate the uncertainties of pulses were extracted in the model circuit of the standard PD calibrator. The uncertainties of charges and rising times in pulses of the standard PD calibrator were estimated with single pulses. These values were 0.3%-1.4% in charges and 1.9%-7.0% in rising time; however, these values are lower than the limit values in IEC 60270.

In this paper, we consider a new lot-sizing and scheduling problem (LSSP) that minimizes the sum of production cost, setup cost and inventory cost. Setup carry-over and overlapping as well as demand splitting are considered. Also, maximum number of setups for each time period is not limited. For this LSSP, we have formulated a mixed integer programming (MIP) model, of which the size does not increase even if we divide a time period into a number of micro time periods. Also, we have developed an efficient heuristic algorithm by combining decomposition scheme with local search procedure. Test results show that the developed heuristic algorithm finds good quality (in practice, even better) feasible solutions using far less computation time compared with the CPLEX, a competitive MIP solver.

The present study suggests the application of a depth camera for wave height field measurement, focusing on the calibration procedure and test setup. Azure Kinect system is used to measure the water surface elevation, with a field of view of 800 mm × 800 mm and repetition rate of 30 Hz. In the optimal optical setup, the spatial resolution of the field of view is 288 × 320 pixels. To detect the water surface by the depth camera, tracer particles that float on the water and reflects infrared is added. The calibration consists of wave height scaling and correction of the barrel distortion. A polynomial regression model of image correction is established using machine learning. The measurement results by the depth camera are compared with capacitance type wave height gauge measurement, to show good agreement.

순서 의존적 준비시간을 갖는 단일기계 생산라인에서 주어진 작업들을 효율적으로 수행하기 위해서는 최대한 동일하거나 유사한 유형의 작업물들을 연속적으로 처리하여 다음 번 작업물의 처리를 시작하기 전에 발생하는 준비시간을 최소화하여야 한다. 따라서, 대기 중인 것들 중 기계에 투입할 작업물을 적절히 선택하는 것이 중요하며, 이를 위해 작업 배정 규칙과 같은 휴리스틱을 사용할 수도 있지만, 이러한 해법들은 일반적으로 다양한 상황을 동적으로 고려하지 못하는 한계점을 갖는다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 상용 3D 시뮬레이션 소프트웨어인 FlexSim을 사용하여 모형을 구성한 다음, 강화학습을 적용하여 대기 중인 작업물 중 최적의 후보를 선택하기 위한 작업 배정 모형을 개발하고자 한다. 세부적으로는 강화학습의 상태 및 보상을 달리 설정하면서 학습된 모형의 성능을 비교하고자 한다. 실험 결과를 통해 적절한 시뮬레이션 모형 구성과 강화학습의 파라미터 변수들을 적절히 조합하여 적절한 작업 배정 모형의 개발이 가능하다는 점을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, we consider optimum plan to determine stress change times under the three-step stress PALTs, assuming that each test units follows an exponential distribution. The tampered random variable(TRV) model for the three-step stress PALTs setup are introduced, and maximum likelihood estimators(MLEs) of the failure rate and the acceleration factors are obtained. The change times to minimize the generalized asymptotic variance(GAVR) of MLEs of the failure rate and the acceleration factors are proposed for the three-step stress PALTs.
