The importance of remanufacturing used products into new ones has been widely recognized in the literature and in practice. This is due to both of economic opportunities and environmental aspects. This paper aims to design ...

Management of the blood as a vital and scarce resource is very important. The aim of this research is to present a novel mathematical model for designing a reliable blood supply chain network. This network consists of three ...

This paper investigated the problem of simultaneous determination of lot-sizing and production scheduling with earliness/tardiness penalties. In this problem, decisions about lot-sizing and scheduling are made so that the ...

In this article, we present a sequential sampling plan for a three-state machine replacement problem using dynamic programming model. We consider an application of the Bayesian Inferences in a machine replacement problem. ...

In this paper, a multi- objective quadratic programming (Poss- MOQP) problem with possibilistic variables coefficients matrix in the objective functions is studied. Through the use of level sets the Poss- MOQP problem is ...

This paper considers the application of neural networks to demand forecasting in a simple supply chain composed of a single retailer and his supplier with a game theoretic approach. This work analyses the problem from the ...

Growth of environmental issues has caused to consider various factors that influence on condition of environment. Green supply chain has absorbed care of researchers because of its considerable impacts on environment. In ...
