Collective fixed points, generalized games and systems of generalized quasi-variational inclusion problems in topological spaces

In this paper, by using a fixed point theorem for expansive set-valued mappings with noncompact and nonconvex domains and ranges in topological spaces due to the author, we first prove a collective fixed point theorem and an existence theorem of equilibrium points for a generalized game. As applications, some new existence theorems of solutions for systems of generalized quasi-variational inclusion problems are established in noncompact topological spaces. Our results are different from known results in the literature.     

Applying Ant System for solving Unequal Area Facility Layout Problems

Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a young metaheuristic algorithm which has shown promising results in solving many optimization problems. To date, a formal ACO-based metaheuristic has not been applied for solving Unequal Area Facility Layout Problems (UA-FLPs). This paper proposes an Ant System (AS) (one of the ACO variants) to solve them. As a discrete optimization algorithm, the proposed algorithm uses slicing tree representation to easily represent the problems without too restricting the solution space. It uses several types of local search to improve its search performance. It is then tested using several case problems with different size and setting. Overall, the proposed algorithm shows encouraging results in solving UA-FLPs.     

Model development in discrete-event simulation and system dynamics: An empirical study of expert modellers

An empirical study comparing the model development process followed by experts in discrete-event simulation (DES) and system dynamics (SD) modelling is undertaken. verbal protocol analysis (VPA) is used to study the modelling process followed by ten expert modellers (5 SD and 5 DES). Participants are asked to build simulation models based on a case study and to think aloud while modelling. The generated verbal protocols are divided into seven modelling topics: problem structuring, conceptual modelling, data inputs, model coding, verification & validation, results & experimentation and implementation and then analyzed. Our results suggest that all modellers switch between modelling topics, however DES modellers follow a more linear progression. DES modellers focus significantly more on model coding and verification & validation, whereas SD modellers on conceptual modelling. Observations are made revealing some interesting differences in the way the two groups of modellers tackle the case. This paper contributes towards the comparison of DES and SD.     

Methodological analysis of supply chains management applications

Formal modelling may be used to express management operational plans to achieve the desired normative objectives of firms. The plans so formulated should be demonstrably optimal with regard to certain specific objectives assumed by top management and ought to provide accurate results, when enacted, with a given tolerance at a prespecified probability.

The Avogadro Constant for the Definition and Realization of the Mole

The International System of Units’ (SI) base unit of the quantity “amount of substance” is the mole (symbol: mol). After the revision of the SI to be implemented in 2019, when all SI units will be based solely on constants, the mole will be defined through a fixed value of the Avogadro constant N_A. One mole contains exactly 6.02214076 × 10²³ elementary entities, meaning the mole will no longer be linked to the kilogram. Currently, the mole is defined via the mass of exactly 0.012 kg of the ¹²C isotope which links it to the kilogram prototype. The history, changes, and implications of the revised definition of the mole are discussed here from the chemist's point of view. The ability to count entities such as atoms or molecules (precisely enough to enable a revision of the SI and preserve consistency of previous and future measurements) is crucial. This is achieved with the realization (Mise en Pratique) based on the X‐ray‐crystal density (XRCD) method (counting the atoms in a silicon sphere). The determination of N_A, focusing on the measurement of the molar mass of silicon highly enriched in the ²⁸Si isotope, with the lowest uncertainty so far, is presented.
