The book is a collection of studies dedicated to different perspectives of three dimensions or pillars of the sustainability of supply chain and supply chain management - economic, environmental, and social - and other aspects related to performance evaluation, optimization, and modelling of and for sustainable supply chain management, and thus presents another valuable contribution to sustainable development and sustainable way of life.
This book contains of 39 scientific papers which include the results of research regarding the current directions in the fields of data mining, machine learning and decision-making. This book is devoted to current problems of artificial and computational intelligence including decision-making systems. Collecting, analysis and processing information are the current directions of modern computer science. Development of new modern information and computer technologies for data analysis and processing in various fields of data mining and machine learning create the conditions for increasing effectiveness of the information processing by both the decrease of time and the increase of accuracy of t...
Since the advent of steam engines and higher throughput railways during the early nineteenth century, the rate of development has been rather steady and incremental. The development of advanced electronic control and command systems, increasing levels of automation, and electrified high-speed railways over the past few decades have transformed the rail transportation posing it as a competitor to aviation. Modern railways are no longer the sole forte of civil and mechanical engineering and involve a broad multidisciplinary engineering disciplines from advanced computing, telecommunications, and networking to big data analytics and even AI. This volume addresses the diverse, evolving, and advanced engineering disciplines including enabling practices and processes involved in shaping modern railways.
This book includes 46 scientific papers presented at the conference and reflecting the latest research in the fields of data mining, machine learning and decision-making. The international scientific conference “Intellectual Systems of Decision-Making and Problems of Computational Intelligence” was held in the Kherson region, Ukraine, from May 25 to 29, 2020. The papers are divided into three sections: “Analysis and Modeling of Complex Systems and Processes,” “Theoretical and Applied Aspects of Decision-Making Systems” and “Computational Intelligence and Inductive Modeling.” The book will be of interest to scientists and developers specialized in the fields of data mining, machine learning and decision-making systems.
Efficiency and productivity assessment are essential to ensure the long-term financial sustainability of countries, services and processes. In the last few years, there has been an increasing interest in the environmental effects of economic activities, and the need to assess the environmental and energy efficiency has been internationally recognized. Energy and environmental efficiency assessments of decision-making units (DMUs), such as countries, utilities, processes and services are relevant and have strong implications for companies, regulators, stakeholders, policy makers, and customers. To improve both the decision-making process and the management of DMUs, fundamental and practical knowledge about energy and environmental efficiency and productivity is essential
Im Zuge der fortschreitenden Globalisierung ist die Steigerung der Leistungsfähigkeit für produzierende Unternehmen von zunehmender Relevanz. Im Laufe der Jahrzehnte haben Unternehmen diverse Maßnahmen ergriffen, um die eigene Leistungsfähigkeit zu steigern. Hierzu existieren verschiedene Methoden, welche unter dem Begriff "Performance-Management" zusammengefasst werden können. Durch die Anwendung dieser Methoden konnten in der Vergangenheit umfassende Leistungssteigerungen erreicht werden. Aufgrund veränderter Rahmenbedingungen sind die klassischen Methoden der Leistungssteigerung, welche vor allem unternehmensinterne Faktoren adressieren, jedoch nicht mehr zielführend. So fokussiere...
