Inference over OWL ontologies with large A-Boxes has been researched as a data management problem in recent years. This work adopts the strategy of applying a tableaux-based reasoner for complete T-Box classification, and using a rule-based mechanism for scalable A-Box reasoning. Specifically, we establish for the classified T-Box an inference framework, which can be used to compute and materialise inference results. The inference we focus on is type inference in A-Box reasoning, which we define as the process of deriving for each A-Box instance its memberships of OWL classes and properties. As our approach materialises the inference results, it in general provides faster query processing than non-materialising techniques, at the expense of larger space requirement and slower update speed. When the A-Box size is suitable for an RDBMS, we compile the inference framework to triggers, which incrementally update the inference materialisation from both data inserts and data deletes, without needing to re-compute the whole inference. More importantly, triggers make inference available as atomic consequences of inserts or deletes, which preserves the ACID properties of transactions, and such inference is known as transactional reasoning. When the A-Box size is beyond the capability of an RDBMS, we then compile the inference framework to Spark programmes, which provide scalable inference materialisation in a Big Data system, and our evaluation considers up to reasoning 270 million A-Box facts. Evaluating our work, and comparing with two state-of-the-art reasoners, we empirically verify that our approach is able to perform scalable inference materialisation, and to provide faster query processing with comparable completeness of reasoning.

Eldabi, Tillal. "Simulation modelling : problem understanding in healthcare management". Thesis, Brunel University, 2000. http://bura.brunel.ac.uk/handle/2438/5264.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
One of the main problems that face decision makers in healthcare systems is complexity and the lack of a well-defined problem. This causes a lack of understanding about the system. Another problem associated with healthcare systems is that usually there are several stakeholders involved in decision making. In such cases different stakeholders may have different views about the problem. In addition to the lack of understanding and intercommunication, there is the tendency in healthcare management to use quantitative methods for analysing the system. These methods are highly data dependant and usually based on historical data, which may not reflect the system's performance under the present circumstances, given the changing pace of healthcare services and structure. Also data may not be available in the first place. This research looks at how modelling techniques may help healthcare stakeholders to understand their system and increase their level of intercommunication (in the case of multiple stakeholders) with minimum dependency on data. Two main aspects are considered in this research: first appraising the existing modelling techniques with regard to problem understanding and intercommunication, and second, looking for an effective modelling approach for achieving such objectives. Discrete Event Simulation (DES) offers good facilities for modelling for understanding. However, DES could be used more effectively to enable viable understanding and means of communication. It is assumed that in order to enhance stakeholders' understanding and intercommunication, that it is better to involve them in the process of modelling from the beginning, using an iterative modelling process, and without being restricted to logical steps. To achieve this a case study strategy is followed in order to devise a modelling framework that helps in enhancing stakeholders' understanding and intercommunication. In this particular research Single Case approach is employed using two case studies. The first case study is used as an attempt to evaluate the hypotheses and tackle research questions which are raised based on an analysis of findings from the literature. The experimentation and analysis part are used to refine the initial hypotheses. These hypotheses are then examined using the second case study to establish a picture about how to achieve the research objectives. In both case studies simulation modelling is examined with regard to the research questions. The thesis concludes by identifying a modelling approach that has high versatility and flexibility to enhance stakeholders understanding and intercommunication. The approach is called MAPIU2, which stands for a Modelling Approach that is Iterative Participative for Understanding. From its name it can be deducted that the main factors of this approach are based on involving the stakeholders in the modelling process from the beginning in an iterative behaviour. One of the main lessons learned is that to achieve better results from the simulation modelling it is important that stakeholders should be involved with modelling process rather than just getting the final results, which helps implanting any decisions or recommendations arising from the model.

The purpose of this study is to describe and provide a critical review of a program called peer mediation currently adapted by a Montreal Area Anglophone School Board or MAASB. This program was implemented to address the growing incidence of violence and conflict within MAASB high schools. This study focuses on the objectives that the MAASB established in addressing the problem of violence in their high schools and the peer mediation programs' ability to meet these objectives based on the claims it purports to. Described and examined in this study is the setting in which peer mediation becomes a suitable "response" to conflict and violence in high schools and including: the role and responsibilities of schools; some of the sources and causes of violence; some of the challenges facing adolescents; and the links between violence as the problem, peer mediation as a possible solution, and the role schools play to make this happen. Of specific interest and addressed in this study is whether or not the peer mediation program is resolving violence and conflict at the source, or if the program serves primarily as problem management. Following a qualitative approach to research, observation and interviews were conducted using semi-structured and open-ended methods. This study also includes some recommendations for further research.

Government leaders stand to benefit from improved program management capabilities within their organizations. Often, they are faced with crisis situations that require a rapid-fire, precise, effective problem solving process. Some of these programs are more severe or complex than others. With time and certainty of the solution as constraints, efficient program management supporting the Defense Acquisition Life Cycle remains an enigma for organizations at best and a hazard at worst.
Program management dealing with crisis problem solving, which is characterized by critical events and high cost, is a real-time process where requirements are identified and resolved to achieve a desired goal, with the path to the goal blocked by known or unknown obstacles. Program management that deals with crisis problem solving situations are plagued by several issues. The crisis situation is likely one not previously encountered; therefore, solutions from past experiences cannot be drawn upon to solve the problem (Heichal, 1992). An individual not experienced or trained often feels the situation is too complex, information is incomplete, time is short, and failure consequences are extreme (Hockey, 1986). Managers who face these dilemmas must have responsive, failure-proof processes in place.
This dissertation explores program management as it deals with problem solving processes in time-critical contexts, including task consolidation and resource selection, with the critical objective of improving crisis event management. The intent is to focus on processes that can be improved in crisis problem solving, specifically time needed to execute current problem solving processes, and introduce a kinetic problem solving approach to increase the momentum of implementing the solutions during crisis situations. This flexibility is facilitated by the researcher’s genuine desire to improve the organizational situation (rather than merely study it) and a client’s willingness to share the details of how they will use the technology and lessons learned.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This research examines problem definition as the first step in a sequential problem solving process. Seventy-seven managers in four diverse organizations were studied to determine common characteristics of problem definers. Among the variables considered as differentiating problem definers from non-problem definers were cognitive style, personal need characteristics, preference for ideation, experience, level of management, and type and level of education. Six hypotheses were tested using the following instruments: the Problem Solving Inventory, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Schedule, the Preference for Ideation Scale, the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule, a Problem Definition Exercise, and a Personal Data Questionnaire. Among the managers studied, only twelve were found to be problem definers. Such small numbers severely limit the ability to generalize about problem definers. However, it is possible that problem definers are scarce in organizations. In terms of cognitive style, problem definers were primarily thinking types who preferred evaluation to ideation in dealing with problems, making judgmental decisions on the basis of collected facts. Problem definers were not predominant at lower levels of the organization. One-third of the problem definers held upper level management positions while another one-fourth were responsible for specialized activities within their organizations, overseeing special projects and individuals much like upper level managers. Sixty-eight of the problem definers had non-business educations with none having more than a bachelors degree. As knowledge and judgment on which to base evaluation expands, managers may become less adept at defining problems and more adept at selecting and implementing alternatives. Several tentative hypotheses can be tested in future research including: 1) determining whether problem definers are scarce in organizations, 2) determining whether problem definers are more prevalent in some types of organizations than others, 3) verifying unique cognitive and personal need characteristics, 4) determining whether non-managers rather than managers have problem defining skills.

Syfte och frågeställningar Syftet med detta arbete är att ta reda på hur fotbollstränare hanterar fotbollsspelare som begår disciplinära fel och hur de ser på sin egen roll i klubben utifrån betydelse och ansvar. Frågeställningarna är följande; Vad betyder disciplin för fotbollstränare? Hur ser fotbollstränare på spelare ur ett disciplinärt perspektiv? Hur hanterar fotbollstränare spelare som gjort sig skyldiga till disciplinära fel? Hur betydelsefull anser tränaren sig vara för klubben? Metod Författaren hade ett hermeneutiskt förhållningssätt till studien genom vilken sex manliga fotbollstränare intervjuades. Samtliga tränare har antingen varit eller är aktiva inom seniorfotbollen. Intervjuerna var semi-strukturerade och pågick mellan 45 minuter till 120 minuter. I efterhand transkriberades och analyserades materialet för att kartlägga relevant material till studien utifrån frågeställningarna. Resultat En majoritet av de intervjuade ansåg att disciplinen var avgörande för att uppnå framgång med ett fotbollslag och samma grupp tränare såg på disciplin som ett verktyg att forma laget med både på och utanför fotbollsplanen. Tränarnas syn på fotbollsspelare skilde sig en hel del åt och detta troligtvis för att de har varit verksamma på olika platser, med olika lag, på olika nivåer men även för att de valde olika perspektiv att utgå ifrån i sina beskrivningar. En tränare utgick exempelvis ur ett emotionellt perspektiv medan en annan utgick utifrån ett fysiologiskt träningsperspektiv i sin beskrivning av fotbollsspelaren. En klar majoritet av de intervjuade ansåg sig vara oerhört viktiga för en fotbollsklubb och klart viktigare än någon annan spelare. Tränarna hanterade spelare på väldigt olika sätt men gemensamt för samtliga var att de tog åt sig äran vid framgång medan man skyllde på andra vid mindre framgångsrika utfall av problematiska situationer

We formulate a model for planning the rerouting of aircraft to alleviate en-route congestion, with system capacity being modeled stochastically. To overcome problems with tractability, we apply a Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition and present an efficient method for solving it. The decomposed formulation is shown to be tractable for real-world problem, and it generates up to a ten percent reduction in cost when compared to an otherwise equivalent deterministic model. We show that even when the decomposed formulation fails to terminate within a reasonable time, a near-optimal solution can still be generated.

A problem solving environment (PSE) is a computational system that provides
a complete and convenient set of high level tools for solving problems
from a specific domain. This thesis takes an in-depth look at the experiment
management aspect of PSEs, which can be divided into three levels: 1) data
management, 2) change management, and 3) execution management. At the data
management level, anything related to an experiment (computer simulation)
should be stored and documented. A database management system can be used
to store the simulation runs for a PSE. Then various high level interfaces
can be provided to allow users to save, retrieve, search, and compare these
simulation runs. At the change management level, a scientist should only
focus on how to solve a problem in the experiment domain. Aside from
running experiments, a scientist may only consider how to define a new
model, how to modify an existing model, and how to interpret an experiment
result. By using XML to describe a simulation model and unify various
implementation layers, changing an existing model in a PSE can be intuitive
and fast. At the execution management level, how an experiment is executed
is the main concern. By providing a computational steering capability, a
scientist can pause, examine, and compare the intermediate results from a
simulation. Contrasted with the traditional way of running a lengthy
simulation to see the result at the end, computational steering can leverage
the user's expert knowledge on the fly (during the simulation run) and
provide new insights and new product design opportunities. This thesis
illustrates these concepts and implementation by using WBCSim as an example.
WBCSim is a PSE that increases the productivity of wood scientists conducting
research on wood-based composite materials and manufacturing processes.
It integrates Fortran 90 simulation codes with a Web based graphical front
end, an optimization tool, and various visualization tools. The WBCSim
project was begun in 1997 with support from United States Department of
Agriculture, Department of Energy, and Virginia Tech. It has since been
used by students in several wood science classes, by graduate students and
faculty, and by researchers at several forest products companies. WBCSim
also serves as a test bed for the design, construction, and evaluation of
useful, production quality PSEs.Ph. D.

The distinction between management style and leadership style has been confirmed in this research by examining the working relationships between leaders and followers in 6 separate sites of a computer systems organisation. The relationships between 4 areas of organisational outcome, (performance/effectiveness, job satisfaction, anxiety, and depression) and the perceptions of the leadership styles of the follower's most significant manager and the organisational environments of culture and climate were studied. A systemic model of these relationships has been constructed and elaborated. From a follower perspective, 4 distinct leadership factors are articulated. One factor is concerned with the future of the organisation (Visioning) while another factor is concerned with managing within the organisations (Organising & Resourcing). The results highlight the weak conceptual and structural distinctions between the facets of Transformational Leadership and Transactional Leadership in the literature. e. g. Bass, Avolio & Jung (1995) and thus support Kotter (1982,1990,2001) and House & Shamir (1993). The leadership factors of managers deemed to be "most significant" and the organisational environment are related. In particular, the factor of Organising & Resourcing is related to Teamwork in the organisational environment while the leadership factor of Visioning is related to the organisational culture in terms of the variables of Mission, and Communication, and the organisational climate variables of Work Goals, Work Demands, and Work Supports. These results support the views that one of the main purposes of leadership leadership is to form and maintain the organisation culture. (Bennis, 1989; Bennis & Nanus, 1985; and Schein, 1985,1990,1997). Also, significant managers with the style called People Orientation have a direct impact on the well-being of their subordinates. In particular, People Orientation is negatively related to anxiety and depression, while organisational culture, via the variable of Mission is also negatively related to anxiety, and Teamwork, and Mission are both negatively related to depression. The results imply that solutions to stress that do not address the leader/follower relationship and neglect the need for a mission and teamwork ethos in the organisation culture are misdirected and prone to failure. The results further show that leadership style is not related to the follower's cognitive style (adaption or innovation) on the KAI. Cognitive style is however related to Work Demands, thus it appears that follower's construe the tasks and problems in line with their cognitive preferences confirming that the KAI is heavily associated with ideation. The practical implications are: 1) Followers see a distinct difference between the visionary elements of leadership and the organising and resourcing components of management. Followers also identify a process of communication that is common to both management and leadership as well another important factor labeled People Orientation. 2) Managers with this style of people orientation have a direct link to the feelings and well-being of followers as measured by anxiety. Increases in the style of People Orientation are likely to be linked to reduced state anxiety and reduced depression in followers. Individual performance/effectiveness is largely accounted for by Work Goals with the moderating effect of the combination of KAI and teamwork rather than the direct impact of management. 3) Followers in this research seem to be in a developmental dilemma where their need for support and encouragement from management can inhibit them from solving problems in line with their preferred cognitive styles. In such circumstances, behavioural outcomes may be different from the norm and thus paradigm breaking for both the relationship with the manager, and with the organisation.

Container terminals use intelligent freight technologies (e.g., EDI, RFID and GPS) to exchange data with their partners, to locate containers and equipment within the terminal, and to automate tasks. This thesis illustrated, via two examples, how this data may be used to optimize operations at the terminal.The first part uses information on announced volumes to allocate internal handling equipment. The objective is to minimize overall delays at the terminal. The problem is represented as a network flow problem and implemented as a linear mixed integer programming model. A case study for a terminal at the Grand Port Maritime de Marseille is carried out. We also showed that combining the allocation problem with the dimensioning of a truck appointment system may reduce overall delays at the terminal. The second part uses information on announced container retrievals and container positions to improve retrieval operations. The objective is to retrieve containers from a bay in a given sequence with a minimum number of parasite relocations. We improve an existing binary programming model and introduce an exact branch and price approach - with a binary subproblem and two variants of an enumerative subproblem - and a heuristic branch and price approach - with a heuristic subproblem. The exact approach solves only small instances; the heuristic approach performs well on several instances, but should be improved further. We also deal with a dynamic version of the problem where the retrieval order becomes revealed over time and evaluate different relocation strategies for this case.

With the financial crisis, many firms suffered from liquidity shortages and needed to quickly change their way of working to release capital from the operations. Scholars argue that firms should handle immediate crisis with short-term measures first, and then change the underlying organizational routines to prevent recurrence. The management of working capital has received increased attention amongst corporate managers as a result of the crisis, whereby it is interesting to understand how firms can reduce their working capital in a sustainable way. By using the problem-finding and problem-solving approach, this study explores how successful firms have found and solved problems to make them sustainable. To answer the research question a multiple-case study is performed, where five firms are explored through interviews with key respondents. The study indicates that urgency is the main driver for both introducing and increasing the focus on working capital management. Different strategies for obtaining sustainable working capital management are found, where focus and commitment from the top management is suggested to be the glue that makes it last. It is furthermore suggested that managers have two main tools for creating and sustaining desired routines and practices; communication and control.

Complex Problem Solving is an area of cognitive science that has received a good amount of attention, but theories in the field have not progressed accordingly. In general, research of problem solving has focussed on identifying preferable methods rather than on what happens when human beings confront problems in an organizational context Queseda, Kirtsch and Gomez (2005) Existing literature recognises that most organizational problems are ill-defined. Some problems can become well-defined whereas others are and remain ill-structured. For problems that can become well-defined, failure to pay attention to the area of problem definition has the potential to jeopardise the effectiveness of problem-formulation and thus the entire problem solving activity. Problem defining, a fundamental part of the problem-formulation process, is seen as the best defence against a Type III Error (trying to solve the wrong problem). Existing literature addresses possible processes for problem-formulation and recognises the importance of applying problem domain knowledge within them. However, inadequate attention is given to the possible circumstances that, within an organization, the participants do not know enough about the problem domain and do not recognise the importance of applying adequate problem domain knowledge or experience to the problem-formulation process. A case study is conducted into exactly these circumstances as they occurred and were successfully addressed within Eskom Holdings Ltd (Eskom), the national electricity utility in South Africa. The case study is a fundamental part of this research project, which explores the gap in the existing body of knowledge related to the circumstances described above and specifically to problems that can become well-defined, and provides the basis for the innovation developed herein that addresses that gap.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Efficient state asset management is crucial for government departments that rely on the operations of their state assets in order to fulfil their public functions, which include public service provision and others. These assets may be expensive, extensive and or, complex, and can have a major impact on the ability of governments to perform its function over extended periods. Various governments around the world have increasingly recognised the importance of an efficient state asset management laws, policies, and practices; exemplified by the surge in state asset management reform.
This phenomenon is evident in Indonesia, in particular through the establishment of the Directorate General of State Assets in 2006, who was appointed as the ultimate state asset manager (of Republic of Indonesia) and the proprietor of state asset management reform. The Directorate General of State Assets too has pledged its adherence to good governance principles within its state asset management laws and policies reform. However the degree that good governance principles are conceptualised is unknown, resulting in questions of how and to what extent is good governance principles evident within Indonesia's reformed state asset management laws and policies.
This study seeks to understand the level of which good governance principles are conceptualised and understood within reformed state asset management policies in Indonesia (as a case study), and identify the variables that play a role in the implementation of said reform. Although good governance improvements has been a central tenet in Indonesian government agenda, and state asset management reform has propelled in priority due to found neglect and unfavourable audit results; there is ambiguity in regards to the extent that good governance is conceptualised within the reform, how and whether this relationship is understood by state asset managers (i.e government officials), and what (and how) other variables play a supporting and/or impeding role in the reform.
Using empirical data involving a sample of four Indonesian regional governments and 70 interviews; discrepancy in which good governance principles are conceptualised, the level it is conceptualised, at which stage of state asset management practice it is conceptualised, and the level it is understood by state asset managers (i.e government officials) was found. Human resource capacity and capability, the notion of 'needing more time', low legality, infancy of reform, and dysfunctional sense of stewardship are identified as specific impeding variables to state asset management reform; whilst decentralisation and regional autonomy regime, political history, and culture play a consistent undercurrent key role in good governance related reforms within Indonesia.
This study offers insights to Indonesian policy makers interested in ensuring the conceptualisation and full implementation of good governance in all areas of governing, particularly within state asset management practices. Most importantly, this study identifies an asymmetry in good governance understanding, perspective, and assumptions between policy maker (i.e high level government officials) and policy implementers (i.e low level government officials); to be taken into account for future policy evolvements and/or writing. As such, this study suggests the need for a modified perspective and approach to good governance conceptualisation and implementation strategies, one that acknowledges and incorporates a nation's unique characteristics and no longer denies the double-edged sword of simplified assumptions of governance.

Cabo, Nodar Marta. "Exact and approximate algorithms for the inventory routing problem". Thesis, University of Southampton, 2003. https://eprints.soton.ac.uk/50599/.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
In this thesis we develop exact and approximate algorithms for the inventory routing problem (IRP). The inventory routing problem is one of deciding an optimal delivery policy for a set of customers through a given planning period. Customers can hold inventory and do not need deliveries every day. Deliveries are carried out by a fleet of homogeneous vehicles that must be routed to travel a minimum distance while visiting all customers scheduled for that day. Decisions concern which customers to be visited and how much to deliver to each of them must be taken. A new formulation for the IRP is presented as a mixed integer programming model. This new approach allows split deliveries so customers can receive the inventory through more than one vehicle during the same day. It also seeks periodic solutions through a given planning period. Although throughout our research the planning period is fixed, all algorithms presented in this thesis can be applied to any length of the planning period. Special cases for this problem are also considered and optimal polynomial algorithms have been developed. We develop four constructive heuristics for the inventory routing problem. These heuristics are based on a schedule-first route-second approach. First, a decision is made on which customers to visit each day, and how much inventory they should receive on each delivery. Then, a vehicle routing problem is solved for each day to perform the deliveries to the customers. Several experiments are carried out to compare the performance of each heuristic. An iterated local search method is then applied to the best solution obtained with these heuristics. The local search is based on node interchange and aims to reduce the number of routes per day as well as the total distance travelled. Extensive computational tests are carried out to asses the effectiveness of this local search procedure.

The aim of study one was to investigate the effectiveness of interpersonal problem solving (IPS-AM) skills training to parent-child dyads compared to parent group intervention. Four boys, aged 7 to 9 years, who met diagnostic criteria for Oppositional Defiant Disorder, participated in the study with their mothers. A multiple baseline across participants, single case experimental design was implemented. Both interventions resulted in improvements in the children’s prosocial reasoning and reduced antisocial reasoning but with some floor effects. Independent naturalistic observation in the home recorded no changes in the noncompliance to parental instruction and verbal aggression of the children. In addition, no change was found for negative parental verbalisation toward the child and very low levels of positive verbalisation and praise between parents and children were observed. In addition, poor parental compliance to program requirements was also found. Study two’s aim was to focus the parent-child interaction onto a specific area of conflict and examine the effectiveness of parent-child training using behaviour task analysis. There was a reduction in the task demand and the number of intervention sessions provided. A multiple baseline across participants, single case experimental design was implemented with three, 7 to 8year-old boys and their mothers. Independent observers recorded no change in child and parent behaviour from baseline during intervention. However, at follow-up improvements in non-compliance and verbal aggression in the children and verbal aggression in parents were found. Improvements in children’s prosocial reasoning, antisocial reasoning and parent report of the internalizing and externalizing behaviour scores as measured by the Child Behavior Checklist were found at post-intervention. At follow-up parent report was more consistent with in-home observation. It was concluded that reducing the number of intervention sessions and the task demand improved attendance and program compliance. The paradoxical finding was of worsening behaviour in some children and parents during intervention yet improvement on follow-up. Implications for future research and clinical practice were explored.

Problem gambling is best understood from a biopsychosocial perspective, whereby multifaceted biological, psychological, and socio-environmental factors interact in ways that may lead to individual risk. Reinforcement contingencies and operant conditioning appear to play particularly important etiological roles. Theoretically, operant conditioning approaches should therefore comprise particularly effective treatment strategies. While operant conditioning in the form of contingency management is known to be an effective treatment for alcohol and substance abuse, it has never been applied by clinical practitioners in community-based treatment for problem gambling. The present pilot study explored the utility of adding concrete reward contingencies to community outpatient treatment, from the perspectives of clinical effectiveness and client/counsellor experiences. At 3-month follow-up, clinical outcomes compared well to typical treatment outcomes, and treatment retention appeared to be superior. Participating clients perceived concrete rewards to be moderately effective in the change process, while active therapist acceptance of this technique appeared to be limited.xi, 186 leaves ; 29 cm. --

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.Using knowledge management and knowledge flow theories, personnel involved in force protection can better construct a trustworthy threat assessment of a port region. By ensuring that intelligence agents, regional experts, and force protection officers are linked in a knowledge flow system, our fleet's decision makers will be equipped with the proper tools to better prepare for port visits. A new organization, the Multi-Threat Alert Center, will be a vital organization that is charged with doing most of the knowledge construction in this system. Therefore its construction and implementation into the AT/FP organization is paramount to maintaining a successful system. Its ultimate knowledge product will be used by commands conducting port visits as the main assessment of the current threat conditions. A key component to ensuring that due diligence is maintained while using pre-fixed force protection plans is to ensure that knowledge is treated as a dynamic system instead of a static object. By analyzing the MTAC knowledge flow systems with current theories, the planners and organizers of force protection can ensure that a functioning and efficient system is in place.

Supply chain management is one of the fundamental issues in the manufacturing and operation management. The performance of supply chain management directly affects an organization's overall performance. For the past several years, supply chain management has been a growing concern in modern manufacturing and business processes because of the complexity of products and new technologies. Especially, information technology and widespread usage of web-based systems are changing strategies of how companies manage their operations, supply chain structures and strategic alliances. A supply chain network by nature is a large and complex, engineering and management system. To understand its structure and to design effective policies, the internal dynamic behavior of the supply chain must be studied. System dynamics is an effective tool for understanding the structure and internal dynamic behaviors of a large and complex system. This thesis focuses on a supply chain problem at LSMC. Traditionally, LSMC is an engineering, technological and manufacturing driven company and its products have been dominant in the market for many years. For the past few years, however, the greater competition in the industry and the increasing pressures from the upstream and downstream of LSMC's supply chain have created interesting dynamic behaviors. The purpose of this thesis is to apply system dynamics methodology to LSMC's supply chain problem and potentially apply the framework of this thesis to general supply chain problems in other industries. The thesis includes various simulations and analyses to understand the problem. Especially eigenvalue elasticities approach provides significant insights, which deepen the understanding of the structure of the model and its dynamic behavior, and lead to the conclusion that the oscillatory behavior in the production inventories and in the demand for LSMC's products is an endogenous cause.

Workflow management in problem solving environments (PSEs) is an emerging topic that aims to combine both data-oriented and execution-oriented views of scientific experiments, and closely integrate the processes underlying the practice of computational science with the software artifacts constituted by the PSE. This thesis presents a workflow management solution called BREW (BetteR Experiments through Workflow management) that provides functionality along four dimensions: components and installation management, experiment execution management, data management, and (full fledged) workflow management. BREW builds upon EMDAG, a first generation experiment management system designed at Virginia Tech which provided rudimentary facilities for supporting (only) the first two functionalities.
BREW provides a complete dynamic workflow management solution wherein the PSE user can compose arbitrary scientific experiments and specify intended dynamic behavior of these experiments to an extent not previously possible. Along with the design details of the BREW system, this thesis identifies important tradeoffs underlying workflow management for PSEs, and presents two case studies involving large-scale data assimilation in bioinformatics experiments.Master of Science

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This thesis seeks to explore if there is a defining philosophy, theory and methodology underpinning problem structuring methods (PSMs). PSMs are a class of qualitative Operational Research (OR) approach for making progress with ill-structured problems. The development of each of the established approaches was in relative isolation with little research cutting across all PSMs. There are no agreed standards or characteristics for an approach to be considered a PSM. This creates a problem for the increasing number of newly developed qualitative OR approaches which share many common features with the established PSMs but are not recognised as such. To close this gap the thesis conducts analysis of the literature identifying these common features. To understand the diversity of theory and methodology of PSMs this thesis theoretically and methodologically develops the existing qualitative OR approach WASAN and positions it alongside the existing PSMs. Bridging the gap between established PSMs and other qualitative approaches will identify the qualifying features of PSMs, how to identify these features in other approaches and how theory development in one approach can be transferred to other PSMs. Next the thesis develops the qualitative OR approach WASAN through an action research program. The problem context is a UK Police Force who are aiming to reduce wasted time in their emergency contact centre. The researcher modelled four individual systems in customer contact using WASAN. WASAN considers how behaviour of an upstream system can increase waste production in the system being modelled. The research analysed the individual models and the interaction between models. The research project shows how to identify the features of PSMs in an approach; the process of developing a bespoke approach into a generic approach; and, the commonality of an underpinning framework between WASAN and the existing PSMs through the transferability of theoretical contributions.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
With the growing and more accessible computational power, the demand for robust and sophisticated computerised optimisation is increasing for logistical problems. By making good use of computational technologies, the research in this thesis concentrates on efficient fleet management by studying a class of vehicle routing problems and developing efficient solution algorithms. The literature review in this thesis looks at VRPs from various development angles. The search reveals that from the problem modelling side clear efforts are made to bring the classical VRP models closer to reality by developing various variants. However, apart from the real VRP applications (termed as 'rich' VRPs), it is also noticeable that these classical VRP based variants address merely one or two additional characteristics from the real routing problem issues, concentrating on either operational (fleet management) or tactical (fleet acquisition) aspects. This thesis certainly hopes to add to one of those good efforts which have helped in bringing the VRPs closer to reality through addressing both the operational as well as the tactical aspects. On the solution methodologies development side, the proposed research noted some considerable and impressive developments. Although, it is well established that the VRPs belong to the NP-hard combinatorial class of problems, there are considerable efforts on the development of exact methods. However the literature is full of a variety of heuristic methodologies including the classical and the most modern hybrid approaches. Among the hybrid approaches, the most recent one noted is mat-heuristics that combine heuristics and mathematical programming techniques to solve combinatorial optimisation problems. The mat-heuristics approaches appear to be comparatively in its infant age at this point in time. However this is an exciting area of research which seeks more attention in the literature. Hence, a good part of this research is devoted to the development of a hybrid approach that combines heuristics and mathematical programming techniques. When reviewing the specific literature on the VRP problems focused in this thesis, the vehicle routing problem with backhauls (VRPB) and the multiple trip vehicle routing problem (MT-VRP), there is not sufficient development on the problem modelling side in terms of bringing these two problems closer to the reality. Hence, to fill the gap this thesis introduces and investigates a new variant, the multiple trip vehicle routing problem with backhauls (MT-VRPB) that combines the above two variants of the VRP. The problem is first described thoroughly and a new ILP (Integer Linear Programming) mathematical formulation of the MT-VRPB along with its possible variations is presented. The MT-VRPB is then solved optimally by using CPLEX along with providing an illustrative example showing the validation of the mathematical formulation. As part of the contribution, a large set of MT-VRPB data instances is created which is made available for future benchmarking. The CPLEX implementation produced optimal solutions for a good number of small and medium size data instances of the MT-VRPB and generated lower bounds for all instances. The CPLEX success may be considered as modest, but the produced results proved very important for the validation of the heuristic results produced in the thesis. To solve the larger instances of the MT-VRPB, a two level VNS algorithm called 'Two-Level VNS' is developed. It was noticed from the literature that the choice of using VNS for the VRPs has increased in recent literature due to its simplicity and speed. However our initial experiments with the classical VNS indicated that the algorithm is more inclined towards the intensification side. Hence, the Two-Level VNS is designed to obtain a maximum balance of the diversification and the intensification during the search process. It is achieved by incorporating a sub-set of neighbourhood structures and a sus-set of local search refinement routines and hence, a full set of neighbourhood structures and a full set of local search refinement routines at two levels of the algorithm respectively. The algorithm found very encouraging results when compared with the solutions found by CPLEX. These findings in this thesis demonstrate the power of VNS yet again in terms of its speed, simplicity and efficiency. To investigate this new variant further, we developed an algorithm belonging to the new class of the hybrid methodologies, i.e., mat-heuristics. A hybrid collaborative sequential mat-heuristic approach called the CSMH to solve the MT-VRPB is developed. The exact method approach produced in Chapter 4 is then hybridised with the Two-Level VNS algorithm developed in Chapter 5. The overall performance of the CSMH remained very encouraging in terms of the solution quality and the time taken on average compared with the CPLEX and the Two-Level VNS meta-heuristic. To demonstrate the power and effectiveness of our methodologies, we tested the designed algorithms on the two special versions of the VRP (i.e., VRPB and MT-VRP) to assess whether they are efficient and dynamic enough to solve a range of VRP variants. Hence the Two-Level VNS and the CSMH algorithms developed to solve the MT-VRPB are adapted accordingly and implemented to solve the two above variants separately. The algorithms produced very competitive results for the benchmark data sets when compared to the best known solutions from the literature. The successful implementations of these algorithms on the three VRP models with only minor amendments prove their generalizability and their robustness. The results in this research show that significant cost savings could be obtained by choosing the right fleet size and better vehicle utilisations with multiple trips and backhauling. Hence, the research proved the justification of studying this interesting combination. Moreover, the problem modelling, efficient algorithm design and implementation, and the research results reveal some vital information and implications from the managerial point of view in terms of making the tactical (fleet acquisition) and the operational (fleet management) decisions in a more informative manner.

In this study we have conducted research on how to optimize inventory management within logistics. The focus in this study is to examine the picking rounds, the reason for this is because it is the most time consuming and expensive part within a warehouse. Is it possible to minimize the handling time to create efficient picking rounds? As a part of the research project AI has been investigated as well. If it is possible with help of AI, create a streamlining of current warehouse logistics. The purpose of this report is to investigate how to minimize the distance in picking rounds for efficient warehouse management. To be able to fulfil the purpose of the report research questions where conducted. The methodology that was chosen at first was traditional data collection. With the help of other studies conducted in this area we started to collect information. To be able to compare this information to the chosen company Care of Carl a case study was performed. A case study on the current situation at Care of Carl, and what the current optimization is based on. With the help of these two methods a result emerged. The result that was conducted by this study is that placement and categorization of products as well as route planning has a significant role when streamlining the picking process and minimizing the picking process. To store items in a warehouse the most suitable option is to use a free item placement, or storage out of sale frequency. But important to acknowledge is that it requires support systems to make this storage possible. When categorizing articles, it is crucial to combine this with a suiting picking method. In the case study, combining ABC categorization with zone picking was a possible solution. In general, it might be a good idea to invest in AI to use the picking position principle. With AI it is possible to analyse more complex data such as customer patterns and if this implementation succeeds it can lead to great advantages within a warehouse and the picking processes. The traveling distance constitutes most of the total picking time, it is important to have a route method that works with how you have chosen to place the items. This study shows that the optimal routing method is the one to use. This study showed that there are a lot of different strategies and methods on the current market. According to the case study Care of Carl can make big savings by changing strategies and methods. The reason why is because they have been reactive when investing in IT support systems. But in general, if a company wants to meet the current increasing requirements according to the globalization and the continuous changes within logistics operations, AI is the next step. The methods that are currently used are not sufficient, with the help of AI there is room for improvements within product allocation and route planning.I denna studie har det undersökts hur man kan optimera lagerhanteringen inom logistik. Fokus har varit att undersöka plockrundorna, då det är den mest tidskrävande och kostsamma delen inom ett lager. Är det möjligt att minimera hanteringstiden och därmed effektivisera plockrundorna? Studien har även varit en del av ett forskningsprojekt där man har undersökt om det med hjälp av AI är möjligt att skapa en effektivisering av lagerhantering. Syftet med denna rapport är att undersöka hur man minimerar avståndet i plockrundorna för att effektivisera lagerhanteringen. För att kunna uppfylla syftet med rapporten utformades det forskningsfrågor kopplat till syftet. Traditionell datainsamling var den metod som användes för att komma i gång med studien. Den teoretiska referensramen som skapades i denna rapport var utifrån andra studier som genomförts inom detta område, men även utifrån att kunna besvara de forskningsfrågor som skapats. Det genomfördes även en fallstudie på företaget Care of Carl, med en nulägesbeskrivning samt en förklaring gällande hur deras nuvarande optimering tagits fram. För att kunna besvara syftet med rapporten och forskningsfrågorna jämfördes den teoretiska referensramen med den fallstudien som genomförts i samband med denna studie. Resultatet som framkom under studien var att placering och kategorisering av produkter såväl som ruttplanering har en avgörande roll gällande effektivisering av plockprocessen i ett lager. Gällande inlagringsmetod är det lämpligast att använda sig av flytande artikelplacering alternativt lagring utifrån försäljningsfrekvens. Vad som är viktigt att nämna är att båda metoder kräver ett stödsystem för att kunna implementeras. Gällande kategorisering av artiklar är det viktigt att kombinera detta med en passande plockmetod. I fallstudien var en möjlig lösning att kombinera ABC-kategorisering med zonplockning. Generellt sätt är AI en framtida värd investering då man kan använda sig av plockpositionsprincipen. AI möjliggör analysering av mer komplexa data som kundmönster och om denna implementering lyckas kan det leda till stora fördelar inom ett lager och för plockprocessen. Det är även viktigt att ha en ruttmetod som fungerar ihop med den placeringsmetod man använt sig av, då gångtiden och gångavståndet är det som utgör det mesta av den totala plocktiden. Denna studie visar att den optimala ruttmetoden är den som bör användas, och detta kräver en investering i ett stödsystem. Denna studie visade att det för tillfället finns många olika strategier och metoder på marknaden idag. Enligt fallstudien kan Care of Carl göra stora besparingar bara genom att ändra sina strategier och metoder. Orsaken är att de har varit reaktiva vid investeringav IT-stödsystem. Generellt sätt, om ett företag vill uppfylla de ökande kraven som finns till följd av globaliseringen och de kontinuerliga förändringarna inom logistikverksamheten, är AI nästa steg att ta. Metoderna som för närvarande används är inte tillräckliga och med hjälp av AI finns det möjlighet för förbättringar inom produktallokering och ruttplanering.
