After that, the estimation of TVFFP is converted to that of a series of TVFPs via leveraging the Gaussian quadrature, on which the adaptive Kriging combined with fuzzy simulation method is proposed to efficiently estimate the TVFFP. The presented example demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"1588-1592"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89803980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A stochastic Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method was employed by combing the traditional DEA approach with a Monte-Carlo simulation technique. The study found the regions covered by markets including SPP, MISO and NE-ISO to be DEA efficient. Compared to a deterministic model, the findings reveal further insights on the performance of Decision-Making Units (DMUs) across different scenarios. In addition, the stochastic model is also better able to discriminate among DMUs and more accurately capture the performance of these units over time. For each unit, the model provides a distribution of efficiencies and for those units operating below the efficient frontier, it also provides the average renewable energy capacity addition targets to be attained.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"6 1","pages":"613-617"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84865609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Besides physics-based approaches, data driven methods are widely used for prognostics purposes, however the latter technique requires availability of run to failure datasets. In this manuscript authors have aimed at performing exploratory data analysis (EDA) on the New Commercial Modular Aero-Propulsion System Simulation (N-CMAPSS) dataset published by NASA. Although 8 datasets are publicly available, authors have chosen dataset 3 (DS03) for EDA in this paper which consists of 9.8 million instances and 47 features. The main aim of doing EDA is to gain better understanding of the dataset as it would facilitate in building a deep learning model that can be used for predicting RUL of the aircraft engines.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"854 1","pages":"1114-1121"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83512382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The GRI Standard's social sustainability indicators were classified in this study in three categories: (i) mandatory, (ii) which could or not be applied by the company, according to its priority, and; (iii) those not applicable for the region analyzed. For those that could be applicable, the FITradeoff method was applied to create a priority ranking accordingly to four criteria defined by the company's decision-maker: return over investment, marketing, the capacity of implementation, and team engagement. As a result, a company can implement these social indicators according to the obtained rank, enabling them to make more sustainable decisions.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"8 1","pages":"457-461"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86810737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Instead of analyzing project risks individually, this paper presents a network-based approach to capturing complex risk interdependencies while prioritizing project risks, which is grounded in the theoretical framework of social network analysis and considers two typical dimensions (i.e., risk occurrence probability, and risk impact) of risk modeling. The concept of the design structure matrix is used to facilitate the establishment of a project risk interdependency network. Five risk indicators (e.g., risk degree centrality, risk betweenness centrality, risk closeness centrality, risk local influence, and risk global influence) are tailored and proposed to prioritize project risks, which can provide project decision makers with a more comprehensive understanding of the project risk profile. Appropriate risk mitigation actions can then be formulated to mainly control critical project risks. An application example is presented to illustrate the utility and validity of the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":6818,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM)","volume":"28 1","pages":"1513-1517"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81788945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
