This volume gathers selected peer-reviewed papers presented at the XXVI International Joint Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management (IJCIEOM), held on July 8-11, 2020 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The respective chapters address a range of timely topics in industrial engineering, including operations and process management, global operations, managerial economics, data science and stochastic optimization, logistics and supply chain management, quality management, product development, strategy and organizational engineering, knowledge and information management, work and human factors, sustainability, production engineering education, healthcare operations management, disaster management, and more. These topics broadly involve fields like operations, manufacturing, industrial and production engineering, and management. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable resource for those engaged in optimization research, operations research, and practitioners alike.
Na engenharia um eficiente gerenciamento de projeto pode garantir o sucesso e reduzir os impactos de atrasos e mudanças que ocorrem durante a execução do empreendimento. Para tal, existem os Fatores Críticos de Sucesso (FCS). Com a identificação dos FCS, mais eficientes serão as medidas a tomar, evitando-se projetos mal sucedidos. O objetivo foi criar um modelo para análise dos FCS que afetam ao Gerenciamento de Projetos na indústria da Construção civil com o uso de Redes Neurais Artificiais. Depois de identificados os potenciais fatores de sucesso (FS) que afetam o Gerenciamento de Projetos, foi preparado um questionário para avaliar o efeito de cada fator. A análise das respos...
A viabilidade técnica de plantios comerciais de Calophyllum brasiliense Cambess. foi avaliada na empresa JAMP Agropecuária e Reflorestadora Ltda. no município de Dueré, estado do Tocantins no período de 2009 a 2014 a partir da instalação de um inventário florestal sistemático contínuo. Foramamostrados 384 indivíduos em 35 ha distribuídos em 96 subparelas (0,96% de intensidade amostral) de 32m2. O plantio apresentou baixa variabilidade (CV < 20%) para variável HT (CV = 14,82%) e para variável DAP (CV= 18,60%) aos 74 meses de idade. Também apresentou distribuição normal defrequência (≥ 68% dois indivíduos devem estar entre o intervalo de mais ou menos um desvio padrão da ...

A comprehensive overview of Monte Carlo simulation that explores the latest topics, techniques, and real-world applications More and more of today’s numerical problems found in engineering and finance are solved through Monte Carlo methods. The heightened popularity of these methods and their continuing development makes it important for researchers to have a comprehensive understanding of the Monte Carlo approach. Handbook of Monte Carlo Methods provides the theory, algorithms, and applications that helps provide a thorough understanding of the emerging dynamics of this rapidly-growing field. The authors begin with a discussion of fundamentals such as how to generate random numbers on a c...
One of the classic works of archaeology, The Early Mesoamerican Village was among the first studies to fully embrace the processual movement of the 1970s. Dancing around an ongoing dialogue on methods and goals between the Real Mesoamerican Archaeologist, the Great Synthesizer, and the Skeptical Graduate Student, it is both a seminal tract on scientific method in archaeology and a series of studies on formative Mesoamerica. It critically evaluates techniques for excavation, sampling of sites and regions, and stylistic analysis, as well as such theoretical factors of explanation as population pressure, trade, and religion and launched similar studies for several later generations of archaeologists. A new Foreword by Jeremy Sabloff is featured in this edition.
Designing Cities with Children and Young People focuses on promoting better outcomes in the built environment for children and young people in cities across the world. This book presents the experience of practitioners and researchers who actively advocate for and participate with children and youth in planning and designing urban environments. It aims to cultivate champions for children and young people among urban development professionals, to ensure that their rights and needs are fully acknowledged and accommodated. With international and interdisciplinary contributors, this book sets out to build bridges and provide resources for policy makers, social planners, design practitioners and students. The content moves from how we conceptualize children in the built environment, what we have discovered through research, how we frame the task and legislate for it, and how we design for and with children. Designing Cities with Children and Young People ultimately aims to bring about change to planning and design policies and practice for the benefit of children and young people in cities everywhere.
Raumanen, a prize-winning novel by Marianne Katoppo, tells the story of Monang, a handsome but wayward Batak man, and Raumanen, a young Minahasa woman who, though educated and intelligent, is also a 'soft touch' when it comes to love. As is deftly revealed by the author in this novel, even in modern day Indonesia, matters of religion and ethnicity can greatly affect--for better or worse--the course of a couple's relationship.
