This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of the Theory of Constraints (TOC) research ie a
total of 1009 journal articles published since 1984. From a bibliometric point of view, the …

Purpose Theory of Constraints (TOC), though a well-established process improvement
methodology in manufacturing, is still a novel philosophy for healthcare and an exhaustive …

Multiphase flow meters (MPFMs) are utilized to provide quick and accurate well test data in
numerous numbers of oil production applications like those in remote or unmanned …

In this paper, a novel hybrid harmony search (HHS) algorithm based on the integrated
approach, is proposed for solving the flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP) with the …

Manufacturing decisions inherently face uncertainties and imprecision. Fuzzy logic, and
tools based on fuzzy logic, allow for the inclusion of uncertainties and imperfect information …

The aim of this study is to design a HVAC system which damper gap rates have been
controlled by PID controller. One of the dampers was controlled by using the required …

Although traditional fuzzy models have proven to have high capacity of approximating the
real-world systems, they have some challenges, such as computational complexity …

Unfortunately, an abrupt corona-virus disease (COVID-19) outbreak brought a drastic
change in human lives. Almost every sector of human-beings and their related activities are …

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to examine empirically the relationships among the
three elements of the theory of constraints (TOC), a number of observable outcomes …

In this paper, we consider the transportation planning decision (TPD) problem with fuzzy
goals, available supply and forecast demand. An interactive method is designed for solving …
