In China, Voluntary Emission Reduction market has been developed and commonly adopted. Enterprise with high energy consumption and high carbon emission can sell emission reductions in VER market after their emission reduction measures. And the promotion of consumer demand caused by low carbon products is considered. This paper we discussed an industry structure of monopoly supplier with high emission and multi-oligarchs manufacturers, with supplier leading emission reduction cooperation. This research shows that supplier by means of deciding unit product reduction rate, and the proportion of reduction investment, and adopting price-discount contract can make all the manufacturers participate in cooperation union and achieve supply chain Pareto improvement.

The fire safety engineering (FSE) has improved the design of many industrial systems. In this study, the FSE approach is applied to an inventory of plastic materials to determine the best design solutions for the sprinklers nozzles used. In particular it is demonstrated the safety equivalence between the sprinklers' nozzles imposed by the European norms and the ones imposed by the American norms. This result leads to a more efficient way to design the extinguishing systems for the warehouses.

This paper focuses on predetermined time systems and their mutual comparison. For comparison of the methods experimental research and conditions of real assembly production were used. The main goal of the paper is demonstration of reliability, mutual accuracy and deviations of individual methods. A hypothesis needed for verification was stated, that individual methods should have accuracy deviation between 5% to 10%. Findings about time demands for analysis when using chosen methods was a partial goal of our research. For mutual comparison MTM-1 and BasicMOST methods were selected.

This paper focuses on developing a mathematical model for solving the Economic Lot Scheduling Problem (ELSP) under an imperfect (shifting) process that includes joint material replenishment, in-production screening process, imperfect rework process, scraps and shortage. The Common Cycle (CC) approach is applied for the problem formulation. Although this paper only demonstrates the first step, further research works will be on conducting effective problem solving procedures.

Although people's attention is drawn toward efficiently achieving cross-cultural technology transfer and business performance through the innovation management practices, the investigation upon organizational characteristics could produce the insight. This study aims to explore the appropriate approaches for efficient performance upon organizational characteristics - firm's size, firm's age, firm's type of ownership, and manager's cross-cultural technology transfer experience - at 223 Japanese manufacturing subsidiaries in Vietnam. The results through SEM-multigroup analysis indicate that: (1) on the relationship between management practice factors and efficient technology transfer, the significant differences lie at firm's size for training; firm's years of operation and firm's type of ownership for management commitment; manager's experience in cross-cultural technology transfer for sharing and understanding; and (2) on the impacting correlations of efficient technology transfer on firm's business performance in term of productivity and innovative capacity, the significant difference produces at firm's operating years.

In this study, we develop several models that combine with queuing theory in order to help a post office to solve the optimization of staff numbers at services counters comply with practical demands. The models are formulated using linear programming. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the models and the solution method using real data from a post office in eastern Taiwan. Analytical results indicate that the proposed models are efficient in improving service efficiency and customer satisfaction, and can be a reference for practical manpower allocation in the post office.

Gigabit Passive Optical Network / Fiber To The Home (GPON/FTTH) has been of increasing interest for the broadband access network due to its inherent advantages, such as high bandwidth, immunity against electromagnetic interference, no active components required, and low cost. The planning of GPON, however, is a very difficult and time-consuming task. Many design factors such as the number, types, positions of network elements and routing information, have to be considered. In this paper, an automatic GPON design method is proposed, which models the network planning design as a problem of the form of Binary Integer Programming (BIP). The BIP optimization problem that is in nature a NP-hard problem is solved using a Lagrangian Heuristic algorithm. Experiment results have been given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method to identify the optimal placement of distribution points with lower computational cost in network planning.

We consider the problem minimizing the total traveling cost on a network under uncertainty in using edges due to some obstacles unable to pass the edges. We formulate this model as a two-stage stochastic program. Such a model can be applied to achieve the least-cost path crossing over the Northern Sea Route on the Arctic by considering ice floes as obstacles that incur some extra cost to break it or detour from the path. Lagrangian relaxation is employed to solve an instance of large-scale by relaxing the coupling constraints linking the two different types of decision variables with the associated Lagrangian multipliers. It turns out that the relaxed problem can be separate into the two well-known problems, the shortest-path problem and the 0-1 knapsack problem. In addition to establishing a lower bound from the Lagrangian relaxation, an upper bound can be obtained by finding a feasible solution via variable fixing.

A precise value of human error rate is imperative to probabilistic safety and risk analysis. Prevailing methods for error quantification are domain specific and provide a crude estimate only. Human error rate (HER) in mines are influenced by the context or performance conditions that are assessed using a set of context describing factors (CDFs). A set of linguistic levels describe the state of the CDFs. An exhaustive set of possible combination of CDFs represent the universal set of context. The relation between context and human error rate can be modeled by mapping the fuzzy set of context to the fuzzy set of HER. The HER of a mine can be estimated from the subjective assessment of CDFs using the concept of rough set.
