Transportation vendors are important for distribution companies to deliver goods or products. Operational problems of logistic process in transportation vendors’ activities are difficult to track and monitor directly in the field, such as driver’s position, the delivery, and so forth. These problems result in the difficulty to measure the performance of vendors’ activities. The aim…

Overall Performance (OP) measurement is an essential instrument in sustainable manufacturing implementation and management. The effective use of key performance indicators (KPIs) can potentially contribute to identify the firm’s overall performance, provide the crucial gaps between desired results and current actions, and thus facilitate the implementation and execution of improvement strategies. This study attempts to…

The optimum performance of power plants has major technical and economic benefits. A case study in one of the Malaysian power plants reveals an escalating harmonic failure trend in their Continuous Ship Unloader (CSU) machines. This has led to a harmonic filter failure causing performance loss leading to costly interventions and safety concerns. Analysis of…

Smart agriculture concept uses innovative solutions including IoT and Cloud storage features, dedicated sensors for monitoring basic agricultural parameters, new communications protocols, etc. SmartAgro architecture comprises a telemetry system for Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as air & soil temperature, air & soil relative humidity, leaf wetness, etc. The current paper outlines the reliability of…

The paper focused on the implementation of fuzzy logic technology for improved Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) network using selected Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Empirical and analytical methods were principally deployed for the study analyses. Empirical analyses were conducted on two designated networks which are MTN and AIRTEL observed with high network traffic to…
