Multi-attribute taxi logistics optimization
According to U.S. government surveys, 12% of Americans used taxi service in the previous month' and spent about $3.7 billion a year for cab fare.2 Taxi service is one of the major modes of public transportation. Despite providing services 24 hours a day, driving relentlessly with an empty taxicab …

Multi-attribute tradespace exploration for survivability
… mission utility, and operational survivability. Multi-Attribute Tradespace Exploration (MATE) for Survivability is introduced as a system analysis methodology to improve the generation and evaluation of survivable alternatives during conceptual design. MATE for Survivability applies decision …

A multi-attribute layout design problem
… available today consider either the quantitative attribute or the qualitative attribute of the layout problem. These procedures are based on maximizing or minimizing one objective function. Some of the procedures that address the multi-attribute nature of the plant layout problem are based on …

Managing unarticulated value : changeability in multi-attribute tradespace exploration
… over time, are used to motivate the dynamic Multi-Attribute Tradespace Exploration (MATE) process. Value can be represented as decision maker perceived attributes, which can be classified according to the ease by which the system can display them. The attribute class spectrum from least to …

The development and analysis of a multi-attribute quality control cost model
A multi-attribute quality control cost model is presented in this thesis. The mathematical model expresses the expected total cost of the quality system per lot as a function of the decision variables, nᵢ and cᵢ, i = 1, 2, . . . , m, where nᵢ is the sample size for the ith attribute. cᵢ is the …

Multi-attribute decision making analysis with evolutionary programming applied to Large Scale Vehicle II
Ship and submarine design is a very complicated process that requires many trade-offs in design parameters in order to obtain the optimal vehicle effectiveness at the best cost. The number of potential designs is infinite, and the ship designer needs a tool to assist in searching this design space. …
