  • Assessment of a toll plaza bridge using traffic microsimulation 
    Özturan, Tayfun. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    Today, traffic congestion has been a problem leading into dramatic consequences, such as driver’s stress caused by waiting in the traffic, economic losses due to wasted time and oil, reduced quality of air because of the ...
  • Collection center location problem with incentive and distance dependent returns 
    Zenginer, Ergül Taslacıoğlu. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    This study aims at finding the number and locations of collection centers that should be opened and the amount of the financial incentive that should be offered to customers for each returned product in a setting where ...
  • Scuba diving simulator: testing real time decision making in a feedback environment 
    Dalkıran, Evrim. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    In this thesis, human decision making in dynamic environment is studied. A scuba diving simulator, which is converted to a game, is modeled for this experimental study. Different versions and types of the games are played ...
  • A dynamic simulation model for long-term hypertension progression 
    İncioğlu, Fırat. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    Dynamics of blood pressure over the life span of human beings demonstrates a growth path. The most significant theories which aim to explain this trend adopt a kidneydependent approach. Structural reductions in the size ...
  • Performance analysis of a hybrid system under quality impact of returns 
    Behret, Hülya. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    Remanufacturing is the process which transforms used products, consisting of components and parts, into products that satisfy the same quality and other standards as new ones. Systems that remanufacture used products face ...
  • Assessing benefits of direct shipment in a deterministic supply chain 
    Meriç, Ebru. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    Today's manufacturing establishments have to improve their operations such as logistics, distribution and inventory. Integration of production-distribution systems and scheduling are widely used in manufacturing applications ...
  • Optimization of warehouse setting and cotton textile supplying policy of Sümerbank in Marmara region 
    Yanık, İsmail. (Thesis (M.S.)- Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 1982., 1982.)
    This thesis presents a mixed integer programming model, designed for the analysis of various planning problems associated with the optimal setting of warehouse capacities and transportation of the cotton textile products ...
  • A distributed time stepped simulation approach for analysis and comparison of shop floor control architectures 
    Beşikci, Umut. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    Different shop floor control architectures (SFCAs) are trying to resolve control problem of Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) by proposing different paradigms. Hierarchical SFCAs enable a layered hierarchy and try to ...
  • Implementation of distributed workflow management systems 
    Çıtakoğlu, Hande. (Thesis (M.S.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    In this work, workflow management systems are investigated and a workflow engine which can be used in the competitive and dynamic business environment for managing distributed workflows is proposed. The currently used ...
  • Theory and applications of a nonconvex programming algorithm 
    Gürman, Erdoğan. (Thesis (M.S.) - Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 1977., 1977.)
    In this thesis, a solution technique to solve a class of nonlinear programming problems is presented. The problem considered is the minimization of separable concave functions and linear functions over linear polyhedra. A ...
