TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal allocation of data points for regionalized variables is investigated in a nonlinear programming setting, based on the theory of kriging and the properties of the estimation variances.
Abstract: In this paper mathematical programming models and special solution algorithms are presented for the optimal allocation of data points for regionalized variables. Two models are discussed; the first one minimizes the estimation variance subject to a given number of additional measurement points or additional measurement cost. The second model minimizes the number of additional points or additional cost subject to upper bounds given to the estimation variances. The models are based on the theory of kriging and the properties of the estimation variances, which lead to certain multiobject programming problems. As it can be shown, a special branch and bound algorithm can be used for solving the resulting nonlinear programming problems

TL;DR: A new type of interactive method, called satisficing trade-off method, will be proposed, which is very simple and easy to carry out, and therefore is expected to be applied to many practical fields.
Abstract: In recent years, many kinds of interactive methods for solving multiobjective decision problems have been developed. Many of them require high degree of judgment to decision makers, for example, marginal rate of substitution or ordering among a set of alternatives, and a number of auxiliary scalar optimizations. These features make their application to practical problems difficult. In this paper, a new type of interactive method, called satisficing trade-off method, will be proposed. The method is very simple and easy to carry out, and therefore is expected to be applied to many practical fields. Keyword: multiple criteria decision making, interactive multiobjective programming method, satisficing trade-off method

TL;DR: This research constructs an integrated NPD framework for developing new products and is implemented in a panel manufacturing firm for designing a green and low-carbon product.
Abstract: Companies need to be innovative to survive in today's competitive market; thus, new product development (NPD) has become very important. This research constructs an integrated NPD framework for developing new products. In stage one, customer attributes (CAs) and engineering characteristics (ECs) for developing products are collected, and fuzzy interpretive structural modelling (FISM) is applied to understand the relationships among these critical factors. Based on quality function deployment (QFD), a house of quality is then built, and fuzzy analytic network process (FANP) is adopted to calculate the relative importance of ECs. In stage two, fuzzy failure mode and effects analysis (FFMEA) is applied to understand the potential failures of the ECs and to determine the importance of ECs with respect to risk control. In stage three, a goal programming (GP) model is constructed to consider the outcome from the FANP-QFD, FFMEA and other objectives, in order to select the most important ECs. Due to pollution an...

TL;DR: A novel weighted-additive fuzzy multi-choice goal programming (WA-FMCGP) model for the imprecise decision context wherein several conflicting goals are present but each goal has multiple-choice aspiration levels and the fuzzinesses are expressed in terms of membership functions (MFs).
