Systems engineering and soft systems methodology: a review
(Doğuş Üniversitesi, 2000-01-15)In this paper, Soft Systems Methodology (SSM), quite a recent development in Systems Engineering, is reviewed briefly. First, a historical background on Systems Engineering that led to the emergence of this area is provided. ... -
A fuzzy areal assessment approach for potentially contaminated sites
(Pergamon, 2000-04)This article describes a new fuzzy areal site assessment approach in the detection of contaminated zones within a site which is under environmental investigation. Conventional techniques utilized in this held are mostly ... -
The cutting-wrapping problem in the textile industry: optimal overlap of fabric lengths and defects for maximizing return based on quality
(Taylor & Francis, 2000-04-15)This paper deals with an important problem in the last phase of manufacturing in the textile industry. This involves cutting large lengths of fabric into smaller pieces, which are then wrapped around rolls. The quality of ... -
The capacitated lot sizing problem with overtime decisions and setup times
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2000-11)The Capacitated Lot Sizing Problem (CLSP) consists of planning the lot sizes of multiple items over a planning horizon with the objective of minimizing setup and inventory holding costs. In each period that an item is ... -
An integrated decision aid system for bosphorus water crossing problem
(Elsevier, 2001)The traffic congestion between the Anatolian and European sides of Istanbul calls for an urgent solution. This paper focuses on the selection of the most suitable and comprehensive remedy for the Bosphorus crossing problem. ... -

Using neural networks and cognitive mapping in scenario analysis : the case of Turkey’s inflation dynamics
(Elsevier, 2004)This paper has two objectives. First of all, it proposes a dynamic scenario analysis approach, which is a revised version of extended anomaly relaxation (EFAR) model [J. Operat. Res. Soc. 48 (1997) 793]; hereafter referred ... -
Precedence constrained TSP arising in printed circuit board assembly
(Taylor & Francis, 2004-01-01)Component placement sequencing is a challenging problem that arises in automated assembly of printed circuit boards. While for some placement machines all placement sequences are acceptable, in other cases some sequences ... -
Using analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to improve human performance: an application of multiple criteria decision making problem
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2004-08)In the global economy, the modem commercial and industrial organization needs to develop better methods of assessing the performance of the human resource than simply using performance measures such as efficiency or ... -
Successful adoption of macroergonornics in manufacturing: using a multicriteria decision-making methodology-analytic hierarchy process
(John Wiley & Sons, 2004-09)The research presented in this paper aims to support the macroergonomics adoption improvement process by developing a broader understanding of relationships between key macroergonomics factors and management styles. The ... -
Workload balancing in printed circuit board assembly shops
(Doğuş Üniversitesi, 2005-01)In assembling printed circuit boards (PCB), the use of numerically or computer controlled electronic component placement machines has become quite popular in the last decades. However, serious operations research problems ... -
A TSP (1,2) application arising in cable assembly shops
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2005-06)One of the main operations in producing cable systems in the automotive industry is that of cutting/stripping/crimping. The most time-consuming activity in this operation is changing the heads whenever a different connector ... -

Determining key capabilities in technology management using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process: a case study of Turkey
(Elsevier, 2006-09-22)The importance of technology management is a vital determinant of long-run success or failure of organizations in today's world. Since technology is a major driver of the global economic development, business professionals ... -
A Bayesian causal map for inflation analysis: the case of Turkey
(Elsevier, 2006-12-01)This paper proposes the use of Bayesian Causal Maps (BCM's) to analyze the complex structure of inflation in Turkey. In this study, a model of inflation is initially structured using a cognitive mapping technique; the ... -
A decision support system to improve the efficiency of resource allocation in healthcare management
(Elsevier, 2007)Limitations in healthcare funding require hospitals to find more effective ways to utilize resources. An effective patient management system is critically dependent on the accurate analysis of individual patient outcomes ... -
Allocation of component types to machines in the automated assembly of printed circuit boards
(2007)Although the use of electronic component placement machines has brought reliability and speed to the printed circuit board (PCB) assembly process, to get higher utilization, one needs to solve the resulting complex operations ... -
