Time management is one of the critical tasks in project management. Based on the theories of total quality management, this authors presented a project time management method, total time management (TTM), so as to facilitate highway project time management. This paper discussed the four fundamental characteristics of TTM: total factors management, staff management, project life cycle management, and Plan-Do-Check-Action (PDCA) cycle management. Now, most managers use computer software to manage the project. In order to make the theory of TTM more executable, the authors develop a project time management system suitable for TTM. This paper presents this time management system's analysis processes including system requirement, key functions etc..

The study attempted to answer the questions related to the expected effects of supply chain management variables which include: Partnership with Suppliers (PS), Relationships with Customers (RC), Quality of Information Exchange (QIE), and Postponement (P), as independent variables, total quality management (TQM) as a dependents variable, and just in time (JIT) as a mediator variable. The study relies on the descriptive approach by conducting an empirical study on commercial companies in Riyadh Governorate in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Through the methods of descriptive and analytical statistics represented in exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and structural equation modeling (SEM)), using the AMOS and SPSS programs, the results of the applied study indicated that: There is an effect of supply chain management variables (quality of information exchange, Postponement) on just in time (JIT), there is no effect of the supply chain variables (relationship with customers, partnership with suppliers) on just in time (JIT), there is an indirect effect of the quality of information exchange, Postponement, partnership with suppliers, the relationship with customers on total quality management (TQM), relationship with customers affect on total quality management (TQM) indirectly, just in time (JIT) does not affect total quality management (TQM)

This paper is concerned with Vehicle Routing Problem to minimize the total delivery waiting time of customers. The delivery waiting time is the time taken to travel from the depot to the customer, which is important for the delivery of the perishing products or foods requiring freshness. We construct a mixed integer linear programming formulation of this problem, and CR(Clustering first Routing second) heuristic and SPH(set partitioning heuristic) are suggested. the results of computational experiments showed that these heuristics find successfully favorable solutions, in much shorter time than optimal.

In the previous research, we considered a logistics brokerage problem with the objective of minimizing total transportation lead time of freights in a logistics e-marketplace, in which a logistics brokerage agent intermediates empty vehicles and freights registered by car owners and shippers [7]. However, in the logistics e-marketplace, transportation due date tardiness is more important than the transportation lead time, since transportation service level is critically determined by whether the due date is met or not. Therefore, in this paper, we deal with the logistics brokerage problem with the objective of minimizing total tardiness of freights. Hungarian method based matching algorithms, real time matching(RTM), periodic matching(PM), and fixed matching(FM), are used for solving the problem considered in this paper. In order to test performance of the proposed algorithms, we perform computational experiments on a various problem instances. The results show that the waiting-and-matching algorithms, PM and FM, also give better performance than real time matching strategy, RTM, for the total tardiness minimization problem as the algorithms did for the total lead time minimization problem.

All machines and systems in a firm should be managed for optimizing its productivity. Actually, however, it is hard to manage the machines of a firm in collective methods because the company making each machine varies and the way maintaining each machine is various. As a machine Is out of order, the machine is fixed by the repair person from the company making the machine. Every time comes repair person to fix a machine firm having the machine would experience time loss and cost loss. Therefore, a firm needs to manage blueprint of their machine to reduce loss in time and cost and to maintain their facilities in TPM(Total Productive Management) to make operators manage directly. In this study, we suggest the method to manage a blueprint of a machine with TPM.

We consider a proportionate flow shop problem with controllable processing times. The objective is to minimize the sum of total completion time and total compression cost, in which the cost function of compressing the processing times is non-decreasing concave. We show that the problem can be solved in polynomial time by reducing it to a polynomially solvable 0-1 unconstrained quadratic program.

This paper considers a revenue maximization problem on a single processor. Each job is identified as its processing time, initial reward, reward decreasing rate, and preferred start time. If the processor starts a job at time zero, revenue of the job is its initial reward. However, the revenue decreases linearly with the reward decreasing rate according to its processing start time till its preferred start time and finally its revenue is zero if it is started the processing after the preferred time. Our objective is to find the optimal sequence which maximizes the total revenue. For the problem, we characterize the optimal solution properties and prove the NP-hardness. Based upon the characterization, we develop a branch-and-bound algorithm for the optimal sequence and suggest five heuristic algorithms for efficient solutions. The numerical tests show that the characterized properties are useful for effective and efficient algorithms.

Comparing with bar-code systems, RFID systems can supply more efficient work. Using RFID systems, logistic management systems could be helped effectively to gather real-time information. It's available to reduce the working time and object's delay time, and to deal with real-time information by using RFID system. Until now, based on how many pallets used, there is few study about best workload of RFID system. Therefore, in this study, both bar-code and RFID system simulations were executed for inspection process in distribution center. As a result, following the ware pallet quantity, the total cost of both working time and other delay times were calculated and the sensitivity analysis of total cost trend was executed.

When purchase prices of a raw material fluctuate over time, the total purchasing cost is mainly affected by reordering time. Existing researches focus on deciding the right time when the demand for each period is replenished at the lowest cost. However, the decision is based on expected future prices which usually turn out to include some error. This discrepancy between expected prices and actual prices deteriorates the performance of inventory models dealing with fluctuating purchase prices. In this paper, we propose a new inventory model which incorporates not only cost but also risk into making up a replenishment schedule to meet each period's demand. For each replenishment schedule, the risk is defined to be the variance of its total cost. By introducing the risk into the objective function, the variability of the total cost can be mitigated, and eventually more stable replenishment schedule will be obtained. According to experimental results from crude oil inventory management, the proposed model showed better performance over other models in respect of variability and cost.

Determining the total duration for a construction project is an integral part of project management in the construction industry. This is to ensure the project and all its associated activities can be carried out and completed within the time frame stipulated. There are several commonly used scheduling methods and techniques in project management, some of which involves manual calculation while others involve computer software. This paper looks into the various time determination methods, extracting out their differences and similarities. It also seeks to draw out the problems when determining time for projects, especially those encountered of case studies. Based on the results from the case studies, there were delays on certain projects even though time determination had been carried out rigorously prior to the commencement of the projects. This paper seeks to develop a time determination model, which incorporates risk management techniques into the calculations in order to improve the method for time estimation to minimize the chances of project delay.
