This paper addresses a new meta-heuristic algorithm to solve a closed loop layout problem.
The proposed algorithm applies a modified version of the recently invented migrating birds …

In this study, for the first time, the classical single row facility layout problem is extended to its
dynamic type by considering several planning periods. This new problem consists of two …

In the lack of historical data for an uncertain event, the belief degree-based uncertainty
becomes more applicable than other types of uncertainty like fuzzy theory, stochastic …

In the literature, there are various types of assembly line balancing problems. Consequently,
different types of solution approaches such as exact, heuristic, and metaheuristics have …

This paper introduces a mathematical model for fixed-charge solid transportation problem
for a two-stage supply chain network, considering simultaneously both variable and fixed …

In this paper, we aim to apply the environmental criteria and to assess and rank various
higher education institutes of Iran based on the impact of the environmental criteria on their …

Abstract Network on Chip (NoC) has been suggested as an appropriate and scalable
solution for System on Chip (SoC) architectures having high communication demands. In …

ABSTRACT Network on Chip (NoC) has been suggested as an appropriate solution for the
communication demands in Systems on Chip (SoCs). Due to the limitation of the resources …

Currently, most of fault-tolerance mechanism of NoC systems with hierarchical management
structure has not discussed the influence of the location distribution of management cores …

Mathematics has been applied to all sciences; and religious and military sciences are no
exception, and mathematics can be used highly to design different war operations and solve …
