Addressing the complexity of multimedia wireless computing solutions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
Plant location strategies in a global network
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
Companies currently utilize a number of different approaches to making decisions around where to locate factories. This thesis analyzes the specific challenges faced by Polaroid Corporation in making site location decisions ...
Analysis of operations headcount in the new product introduction of servers and workstations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
An optimal coordination between a design team and a manufacturing team is necessary to minimize the overall cost of a project and to remain competitive. The type of coordination can range from one way communication to ...
Transmission system overvoltage mitigation through the use of distributed generation (DG) smart inverters
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
The objective of this project is to demonstrate the technical ability and cost-effectiveness of reducing electric transmission system overvoltage violations using distributed generation (DG) smart inverters connected to ...
Assessing sales floor capacity and replenishment strategy
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
Target stores (and the upstream supply chain) have been traditionally designed for a predominantly brick and mortar business, fed by a push supply chain model. With the growing need for omnichannel sales fulαllment, supply ...
Improving project timelines using Al / ML to detect forecasting errors
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)
This project focuses on the creation of a novel tool to detect and flag potential errors within Amgen's capacity management forecast data, in an automated manner using statistical analysis, artificial intelligence and ...
Improving predictability of cell culture processes during biologics manufacturing scale-up through hybrid modeling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
In the biotechnology industry, commercial manufacturing of biologic drugs occurs in large-scale production bioreactors (15,000L), but process development occurs in lab-scale production bioreactors (2-3L). Cell culture ...
Performance modeling of human-machine interfaces using machine learning
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)
As the popularity of online retail expands, world-class electronic commerce (e-commerce) businesses are increasingly adopting collaborative robotics and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to enhance fulfillment efficiency ...
Survivable paths in multilayer networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
We consider the problem of protection in multilayer networks. In single-layer net- works, a pair of disjoint paths can be used to provide protection for a source-destination pair. However, this approach cannot be directly ...
Predicting the triple beta-spiral fold from primary sequence data
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
The Triple β-Spiral is a novel protein structure that plays a role in viral attachment and pathogenesis. At present, there are two Triple β-Spiral structures with solved crystallographic coordinates - one from Adenovirus ...
