    Sustainable Economic Development Indicators: the Case of Turkey
    (World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd wspc@wspc.com.sg, 2016-08) Söylemez, İsmet; Dogan, Ahmet; Özcan, Uǧur
    Sustainable development indicators are a good road map for financial, social and economic targets of countries. This paper aims to show which indicators are affect sustainable development of Turkey for last twelve years. 132 sustainable development indicators determined by European Union Statistical Office (Eurostat). Sustainable development indicators are calculated by related unit, institution or establishment in the direction of definitions determined by Eurostat. These indicators are calculated by TUIK (Turkish Statistical Institute) for Turkey. Some indicators as follows: socio-economic development, sustainable consumption and production, climate change and energy, sustainable transport, financing for sustainable development. However, only economic indicators are presented and analyzed in the case study. Official development assistance has tenfold rise in the last 12 years. These indicators will show which areas at economic changes should be considered to the sustainable development of country. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Solving an Ammunition Distribution Network Design Problem Using Multi-Objective Mathematical Modeling, Combined AHP-TOPSIS, and GIS
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2019-03) Akgün, Ibrahim; Erdal, Hamit
    We study a strategic-level ammunution distribution network design problem (ADNDP) where the purpose is to determine the locations and the service assignments of main, regional, and local depots in order to meet the ammunition needs of military units considering several factors, e.g., stock levels at the depots, costs, and risk levels of depot locations. ADNDP is a real-world and large-scale problem for which scientific decision making methods do not exist. We propose a methodology that uses multi-objective mathematical modeling, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), The Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), and Geographic Information System (GIS) to solve the problem. The multi-objective mathematical model determines the locations and the service assignments of depots considering two objectives, namely, to minimize transportation costs and to minimize risk scores of main depot locations. The risk score of a depot location indicates how vulnerable the location is to disruptions and is determined by a combined AHP-TOPSIS analysis where TOPSIS is used to compute the risk scores and AHP is used to compute the weights needed by TOPSIS for the identified risk attributes. The GIS analysis is conducted to determine the potential depot locations using map layers based on spatial criteria. We have applied the proposed methodology in designing and evaluating a real ammunition distribution network under different scenarios in collaboration and cooperation with the area experts. We have employed the weighted-sum method to find non-dominated solutions for each scenario and discussed their tradeoffs with the area experts. The purpose of this paper is to present the proposed methodology, findings, and insights. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Prediction of Preference and Effect of Music on Preference: A Preliminary Study on Electroencephalography from Young Women
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019-03-01) Yilmaz, Bulent; Gazeloglu, Cengiz; Altindis, Fatih
    Neuromarketing is the application of the neuroscientific approaches to analyze and understand economically relevant behavior. In this study, the effect of loud and rhythmic music in a sample neuromarketing setup is investigated. The second aim was to develop an approach in the prediction of preference using only brain signals. In this work, 19-channel EEG signals were recorded and two experimental paradigms were implemented: no music/silence and rhythmic, loud music using a headphone, while viewing women shoes. For each 10-sec epoch, normalized power spectral density (PSD) of EEG data for six frequency bands was estimated using the Burg method. The effect of music was investigated by comparing the mean differences between music and no music groups using independent two-sample t-test. In the preference prediction part sequential forward selection, k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) and the support vector machines (SVM), and 5-fold cross-validation approaches were used. It is found that music did not affect like decision in any of the power bands, on the contrary, music affected dislike decisions for all bands with no exceptions. Furthermore, the accuracies obtained in preference prediction study were between 77.5 and 82.5% for k-NN and SVM techniques. The results of the study showed the feasibility of using EEG signals in the investigation of the music effect on purchasing behavior and the prediction of preference of an individual.

    Industrial Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks in Industry 4.0: Exploring Requirements, Protocols, and Challenges—A MAC Survey
    (John Wiley and Sons Ltd vgorayska@wiley.com Southern Gate Chichester, West Sussex PO19 8SQ, 2019-08-13) Raza, Saleem; Faheem, Muhammed Yasir; Güneş, Mesut; Guenes, Mesut
    The vision to connect everyday physical objects to the Internet promises to create the Internet of Things (IoT), which is expected to integrate the diverse technologies such as sensors, actuators, radio frequency identification, communication technologies, and Internet protocols. Thus, IoT promises to transfer traditional industry to advance digital industry known as the Industry 4.0. At the core of the Industry 4.0 are the wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs) that led to the development of industrial wireless sensor networks (IWSNs) and industrial wireless sensor and actuator networks (IWSANs). These networks play a central role of connecting machines, parts, products, and humans and create a diverse set of new applications to support intelligent and autonomous decision making. The IWSAN is a promising technology for numerous industrial applications because of their several potential benefits such as simple deployment, low cost, less complexity, and mobility support. However, despite such benefits, they impose several unique challenges at different layers of the protocol stack when deploying them for various monitoring and control applications in the Industry 4.0. In this article, we explore IWSAN, its applications, requirements, challenges, and solutions in the context of industrial control applications. Our main focus is on the medium access control (MAC) layer that can be exploited to satisfy such requirements. Our discussion presents extensive background study of the MAC schemes and it reviews the MAC protocols of the existing wireless standards and technologies. A number of application-specific MAC protocols developed to support industrial applications, which are not part of these standards, are also elaborated. We rationalize to what extent the existing standards and protocols help in solving such requirements as laid down by the Industry 4.0. In the end, we emphasize on existing challenges and present important future directions. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Green Supplier Selection by Using Fuzzy TOPSIS Method
    (World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd wspc@wspc.com.sg, 2016-08) Dogan, Ahmet; Söylemez, İsmet; Özcan, Uǧur; Stylemez, Ismet
    With the increased environmental consciousness in customers, organizations took upon the task of redesigning their strategic goals in a more environment-sensitive way in order to fulfill their social obligations, to enable sustainability, to gain competitive advantage and to make the world more habitable. Because, the emerging conditions in the 21st century indicate that the traditional criteria -such as price, cost so on for supply chain management, supplier selection and performance measurement of suppliers are no more sufficient and there is the necessity of adding new criteria such as environmental matters. This paper deals with the problem of selecting green suppliers in an organization in Turkey that has operations in the field of accumulator. The aim is to select the greenest of 3 suppliers in Turkey, France and Bulgaria which supply the organization with the plastic material used in the production of accumulator. The problem is solved via fuzzy TOPSIS, which is a multi-criteria decision making method (MCDM), and the results are used to select the greenest supplier. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Generating Linguistic Advice for the Carbon Limit Adjustment Mechanism
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023-10-02) Fidan, Fatma Şener; Aydogan, Sena; Akay, Diyar
    Linguistic summarization, a subfield of data mining, generates summaries in natural language for comprehending big data. This approach simplifies the incorporation of information into decision-making processes since no specialized knowledge is needed to understand the generated language summaries. The present research employs linguistic summarization to examine the circumstances surrounding the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, one of the most significant regulations confronting exporting nations to the European Union, and will be adopted to support sustainable growth. In this paper, associated with several attributes of the countries and product flow from exporting countries to European countries were defined as nodes and relations, respectively. Before the modeling phase, fuzzy c-means automatically identified fuzzy sets and membership degrees of attributes. During the modeling phase, summary forms were generated using polyadic quantifiers. A total of 1944 linguistic summaries were produced between exporting countries and European countries. Thirty-five summaries have a truth degree greater than or equal to the threshold value of 0.9, which is considered reasonable. The provision of natural language descriptions of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism is intended to aid decision-makers and policymakers in their deliberations. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Determining the Priority Waste in Aluminum Manufacturing Sector Using the SMSA-2 Method: A Case Study of Kayseri
    (Computers and Industrial Engineering dessouky@usc.edu, 2014) Kızılkaya Aydoğan, Emel Kizilkaya; Ates, Nuray; Uzal, Niǧmet; Ozmen, Mihrimah; Aydogan, Emel Kizilkaya
    Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) constitute a major part of the Turkish economy, accounting for a large proportion of the country's businesses and total employment. Although the SMEs are known as important contributors to environmental pollution, the relative contribution of SMEs to the total environmental impacts of industrial is unknown. The most important environmental issues related with aluminum industries are emission of gases, wastewater and solid wastes from aluminum production. In multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problems in some situations, decision makers (DMs) don't or can't express their preferences obviously. In these situations for decision making, stochastic multi-criteria acceptability analysis (SMAA-2) can be applied. In this study, a multi-criteria decision making model is presented to determine higher priority waste types (air and solid wastes, wastewaters) among the three firms. We used stochastic data by applying and the SMAA-2 results are given. © 2015 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    A Bi-Criteria Approach to Scheduling in the Face of Uncertainty: Considering Robustness and Stability Simultaneously
    (Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2014) Gören, Selçuk; Sabuncuoĝlu, Ihsan; Selcuk, Gören
    It is possible to scrutinize impacts of uncertainty on schedules from two different perspectives. The flrst one has to do with the fact that schedules are required to main- tain high performance in the face of uncertainty. In other words, it is desired that their performances are insensitive to negative impacts of disruptions. We refer to this view- point as the robustness perspective. The second viewpoint is about another quality: when a schedule is executed in the shop floor, the realized schedule is required not to deviate much from its initial version. This is because many activities besides pro- duction are planned based on the production schedule. It is important that unforeseen disruptions affect the plans for these activities as little as possible. We refer to this viewpoint as the stability perspective. Even though a considerable body of literature has emerged on hedging schedules against the negative effects of unforeseen disrup- tions in the last two decades, few studies address the problem of scheduling under uncertainty from both the robustness and the stability perspectives at the same time. The nature of the relation between robustness and stability, the trade-off between them, the circumstances under which they conflict or reconcile need to be thoroughly inves- tigated. To this end, we propose a bi-criteria approach to simultaneously investigate the robustness and stability of production schedules. We consider proactive schedul- ing in a single machine environment with random processing times. We use the total expected flow time and the total variance of job completion times as the robustness and stability measures, respectively. The proposed o-constraint variants are exact methods to generate the set of all Pareto-optimal schedules. We also develop an algorithm to generate a flxed number (set by the decision-maker) of near-Pareto-optimal schedules to deflne the characteristics and the shape of the trade-off curve without generating the entire Pareto set. Our computational experiments indicate that the proposed algorithms are efflcient. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
