The tradition originated in the time of Napoleon when the Hussards under the famous general’s command began celebrating victories by swinging a sabre and thus

Summary Software reliability modeling has‚ surprisingly to many‚ been around since the early 1970s with the pioneering works of Jelinski and Moranda‚ Shooman‚ and Coutinho. The theory behind software reliability is presented‚ and some of the major models that have appeared in the literature from both historical and applications perspectives are described. Emerging techniques for software reliability research field are also included. The following four key components in software reliability theory

The First song I will be discussing today is “Part of Your World” it is a vocal work accompanied by an orchestra. This particular song is performed halfway through at the beginning of the concert by Sara Bareilles and is completed at the end of the Show by Jodi Benson. The song was composed in a major tonality and is written is a quadruple meter. The tempo of “Part of Your World” is moderate. In regard to the dynamics‚ the song was mostly played in mezzo forte‚ or moderately loud. Except for when

Queuing theory can be applied to a variety of operational situations where it is not possible to predict accurately the arrival rate of customers and service rate of service facilities. In particular‚ it can be used to determine the level of service (either the service rate or the number of service facilities). The present study is a part of a consultancy project which is

An exam consists of 20 multiple-choice questions. Each question has five possible answers and all questions carry equal weight. Mary has not studied for the exam and will be picking her answers at random. What is the probability that Mary will get a score of at least 30% on this exam? n=20‚ p=0.20 P(X≥6) (0.30)(20)=6 Distribution Plot Binomial‚ n=20‚ p=0.2 0.25 Probability 0.20 0.15 0.10 0.05 0.1958 0.00 0 P(X≥6)=0.196 X 6 If 40% is the lowest passing

ships. The traffic movement through a port is a complex phenomenon because of the random nature of the arrival and service time of the ships. This requires a systematic approach in port planning and management. Queuing model was applied to the arrival and services pattern which causes the problems of congestion and proffer solutions to the problem areas. It is also used to predict the average arrival rate of ships to Tin can Island Port and the average service rate per ship in a month. The study to

Service Level Constraint [pic] This paper studies the stock rationing problem of a single-item make-to-stock production system with two demand classes and lost sale. There are service level requirements for both demand classes. Demands follow Poisson distributions‚ and production time is exponentially distributed. We derive the condition of the existence of a feasible rationing policy of the problem first. Then the optimality of rationing policy is shown. Numerical studies are used to compare

Objectives Paragraph Uncertainty in the business environment is a major threat at each and every level of the supply chain. Every day new challenges and opportunities arise – rising cost of fue‚ implications of an organization’s carbon footprint‚ outsourcing regulations‚ tax incentives‚ and political fluctuation. Proactively monitoring the implications of such events at frequent intervals is crucial for an organization. By using a variety of Supply Chain modeling and mathematical tools‚ an organization

ABSTRACT The paper postulates a thermodynamic theory of money and describes both quantitavely and qualitatively its mechanics that unify economic production and finance in a sustainability framework. The theory will examine various economic issues‚ such as‚ full employment‚ economic growth‚ economic development‚ economic justice‚ the role of financial institutions‚ technology transitions and sustainable natural resource use‚ and be contrasted with the dominant money theory. It is claimed that
