Emergency Logistics is a hot issue, meanwhile, emergency logistics of enterprises also is an important aspect. This paper focuses on the distribution business decision-making of enterprises based on emergency logistics. In the case of unexpected incidents this paper holds that there are three features in the emergency supplies distribution. They are dynamic supply demand for emergency supplies, the...
An important property of emergency management is that the crisis manager should adjust his strategies dynamically along with the increasing information and previous activities. This paper studies how to deal with the crisis effectively along with the increasing information and previous activities after the crisis occurred. The authors analyze the dynamic treatment process of the crisis and build a...
To meet the requirements for being geared to the international standards and for self-development of an enterprise, it becomes more and more common for an enterprise to execute EPC projects. Comparing with the traditional patterns of contract, the owners will not involve in the specific process of project in EPC model, so the decision risk of the owners is increased. Through analyzing of EPC contract...
Artificial intelligence has been recognized as a highly potential field for automation of cargo scanning process. Specifically, intelligent systems have the capability to direct the process without the interference of a human operator and being able to make decisions. In this paper, an expert system for directing and instructing the cargo inspection, which is performed by means of nuclear resonance...
Each year, there are kinds of new diseases or natural disasters that break out around the world. And, the emergency logistics system plays an important role in the process of fighting against these diseases and natural disasters. How to evaluate and optimize the emergency logistics system in contingencies is becoming the hot researching topic. This article establishes the set pair analysis model (SPAM)...
Fuzzy synthetic evaluation is an effective decision-making method in the comprehensive evaluation of things affected by multiple factors. During the evaluation, the evaluation results are expressed in the fuzzy sets, but not denoted in the positive or negative manner absolutely. When evaluating the stamping performance, die engineers generally used some descriptions as ??good forming performance??,...
Started with analysis on actualities and characteristics of purchase, production and sale in a steel enterprises, proposes three management models of reengineering of material flows in enterprise, such as management models of production flow, purchasing management and client center, which all normalized by standards The effects of material flows reengineering are comprehensively evaluated by application...
This paper investigates the cognitive and behavioral processes underlying efforts to respond to disaster within complex socio-technical systems. The main focus of this work is on understanding the impact of disaster severity on these processes. Data for the study are taken from after-action reports compiled by police department personnel who took part in response operations to the 11 September 2001...
Transportation network is vital for materials used for a battle. To solve the problem of rerouting strategy in a transportation network, a new method for rerouting strategy based on the distance of information-state transition and time restriction is proposed. Then it analyzes the decision-making criteria of rerouting strategy while the mutilation in present-state and future-state. Based on above,...
Based on the demand of material, this paper first selected the evaluating factors about choosing suppliers, and analyzed the correlation among evaluating factors. Then, by combining the merits of Analytic Network Process (ANP) and entropy right, this paper proposed a method to calculate the compound rights of factors. The new method fully takes advantage of the relationship between factors and the...
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of various conditions (video with text, video with audio, video with audio and text) of feedback during video practice in the use of a multimedia environment. The study evaluated the learner's recall and transfer in understanding the playing rules for decision making in calling penalties. Two experiments were conducted for this research. Participants...
City is a large-scale compound system of society-economy-nature and a regional synthesis in which the factors of people, resources, environment, society and economy are highly dense in order to attain integrated and centralized benefit. City emergency management is a social project to guarantee the safe and highly effective operation of city. To achieve both the theoretical and practical leap of city...
In this paper, the material measure of BBD ball mill based on multi-information data fusion is researched. By combining the Rough Set and Radial Basis Function neural network, this method can not only solve the priori difficulty in obtaining information in data fusion and a large number of redundant data existing problems in system, but also greatly increase the approximation ability and learning...
We present a field study of multi-disciplinary team meetings where decisions on treatment of patients with diseases in the upper part of the abdomen are made. These meetings are important for knowledge dissemination and learning. We have studied how different time related aspects affect the efficiency during these meetings. Time is relevant because several physicians attend these meetings, and they...
With the rapid development of global economics in recent years, buyerpsilas market is greatly expanded where consumerpsilas demand becomes diversified and individual. So the management and control problems of Make-to-Order (MTO) production enterprises are paid more and more attention. In the paper, the problem of rough capability estimation for the Make to Order enterprises is described and discussed...
This paper propose a method of determining spares varieties based on AHP and DEA. Firstly, primary factors affecting determining of spares varieties are analyzed; Secondly, weights of comprehensive importance of spares are determined by the method of combining AHP with DEA; finally, whether the component is classified as spares or not is determined by the weights of comprehensive importance of items...
With the emergence of networked organization, the information sharing capability of potential supply chain partners obtains more attention form academicians and industry personnel. However the evaluation of information sharing capability of supply chain partners is not easy task. It involves an evaluation of multiple attributes, and moreover qualitative attributes are often accompanied by certain...
E-supply network coordination (e-SNC) is a new structure obtained by information technology, automation of different echelons' behavior, and the market globalization. The information flow and cooperation among echelons are two key drivers in SN. Here, supply network is considered as a collection of agent-mediated decision and coordination mechanisms in a Web-based environment. The proposed coordination...
Procurement management is an important process in large-scale projects because large-scale projects heavily depend on building materials from suppliers. This paper develops a model of material procurement in large-scale projects using the quality of material as decision-making variable. The optimal contract specifying quality and price between the contractor and the supplier is given. In addition,...
Quick disposition of returns is the most important part in a successful reverse supply chain, if returns can be disposed in time and processed quickly, more profit we can get from them, and also service level can be increased. In this paper, we study the returns disposition problem with outsourcing by developing Markov decision model. By theoretical proof, we give out optimal structure for this model...
