Hamiden Abdelwahed Khalifa

Volume 5, Issue 2 , September 2018, Pages 110-121

https://doi.org/10.22105/jarie.2018.139816.1045

Abstract
  In this paper, a Fuzzy Multi-Objective Linear Programming (FMOLP) problem having both objective functions and constraints fuzzy parameters is introduced. Theses fuzzy parameters are characterized by trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. The FMOLP problem is converted into the corresponding deterministic MOLP problem ...  Read More

Forecasting methods for domestic air passenger demand in Nigeria

Adeniran Adetayo Olaniyi; Kanyio Olufunto Adedotun; Owoeye Adelanke Samuel

Volume 5, Issue 2 , September 2018, Pages 146-155

https://doi.org/10.22105/jarie.2018.133561.1038

Abstract
  Two years single moving average and simple exponential smoothing with smoothing constant of 0.9 were applied to forecast the 2018 demand for domestic air passenger in Nigeria. Also, the two methods of forecasting were evaluated and compared with Mean Squared Deviations (MSD) to determine which method ...  Read More

Research Paper Engineering Optimization
