        The purpose of this study was to evaluate the green timing in the production of two workshops by balancing the completion time and energy consumption. The research method is descriptive-analytic and also applicable to the purpose. This research has been designed to evaluate the performance of solving time-varying multi-machine flow shop problem considering the objective functions of minimizing total finishing time energy consumption, and the total weighted latency and early maturity of the work. Data were gathered through interviews and information from Padideh mashinsazi Gharb company and then implemented in MATLAB software. A total of 30 problems were produced with different dimensions based on commonly used methods and were evaluated by Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA-II) and Multiple Objective Particle Swarm Optimization algorithms (MOPSO). Three criteria for comparing MID, MS, and SNS were used along with the solution time to compare different states of the algorithm. Considering sustainability considerations in the timing of production and construction, in addition to the economic benefits of reducing carbon emissions, it helps the environment. The results of the comparison of the two algorithms using two hierarchical and tops analysis methods showed that the outputs from the comparison of the NSGA-II algorithm with the MOPSO algorithm are better for these problems.

        There is a lot of information in the banking industry that is of particular importance in identifying it. The use of data mining techniques not only improves quality but also leads to competitive advantages and market positioning. By using data mining and in order to analyze patterns and trends, banks can predict the accuracy of how bank branches are ranked. In this paper, the branches of one of the large commercial banks (number of selected branches 1825 branches and the number of features used 57 features) were performed on real data using support vector machine categories and multi layer perceptron neural network. The evaluation results related to the support vector machine showed that this classifier has lower efficiency for the proposed method. However, the use of neural networks and its combination with PCA showed that it has high performance criteria. Values related to efficiency and accuracy were obtained using neural network with very high accuracy. Manuscript profile

        Transportation of pharmaceuticals as one of the most complex types of transportation has always been studied by researchers. This issue, which is a subset of a key issue called the transportation of hazardous substances, is one of the most integral and high-risk activities in the industrial activity cycle. Trying to find the optimal solution to this problem is one of the most useful topics in logistics. Accordingly, this study optimized the design of the drug logistics network. In this regard, the issue of vehicle routing (VRP) has been inspired. In this regard, the issue of vehicle routing (VRP) is inspired. To this end, first a conceptual model for this problem and a new mathematical model for routing drug transport vehicles with the role of path sensitivity and time window uncertainty are presented. In order to solve the problem, the Gray Wolf meta-heuristic algorithm has been used as a new and efficient algorithm. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, this algorithm is compared with the exact solution method and genetic algorithms and particle swarm and the results of the gray wolf algorithm show that this algorithm provides answers with the least possible error in a very short time.
