This paper proposes a novel approach to managing capacity planning flexibility in engineering systems based on decision rules and differential evolution (DE) algorithm. A multi-stage capacity expansion problem is formalized based on a decision rule representation. The formalized model can analyze multiple sources of uncertainty simultaneously (e.g., changes in demand and material price) and explicitly...
A flexible capacity expansion strategy is important for engineering systems since it enables decision-makers to adjust the capacity of systems as uncertainty unfolds. In a flexible capacity expansion problem, how to generate the optimal decision rule to determine when and how to expand the capacity is a challenging task. In this paper, a parameter optimization framework is proposed to automatically...
Contraposing the complex and fickle development tendency of software development process in recent years, "Flexibility"" of software development method is put forward. The basic conditions supporting "flexibility" is discussed. Last it is discussed that how to structure software development method possessing "flexibility".
