Dynamic complexity occurs in every social structure. Film industry, as a type of creative industries, constitutes a dynamic environment where uncertainty is at high levels. This complexity of the environment renders the more traditional operations research models somewhat ineffective, and thus, requires a dynamic analysis. In this study, a model showing the dynamics of film exhibition is given. The interactions within and between the theatrical and the DVD sales channels are implemented by the model. Later on, the possible effects of piracy to the model are discussed, using the inferences obtained by the created model. The model is examined with scenario and sensitivity analysis. All the modeling studies are done with a commercial dynamic systems modeling software. The model also can be extended for the whole film industry, or for some other creative industries like the publishing industry.

Fuzzy classification models based on tanaka’s fuzzy linear regression approach and nonparametric improved fuzzy classifier functions Özer, Gizem; Köksal, Gülser; Department of Industrial Engineering (2009) In some classification problems where human judgments, qualitative and imprecise data exist, uncertainty comes from fuzziness rather than randomness. Limited number of fuzzy classification approaches is available for use for these classification problems to capture the effect of fuzzy uncertainty imbedded in data. The scope of this study mainly comprises two parts: new fuzzy classification approaches based on Tanaka’s Fuzzy Linear Regression (FLR) approach, and an improvement of an existing one, Improved Fu...
A methodology for determining the cluster of a new project Yiğit, Aybeniz; Saatçioğlu, Ömer; Department of Industrial Engineering (2005) By definition, all projects are unique; however R&D projects have specific characteristics that make them harder to manage. The project management methodology applied to R&D projects may show differences due to the categorization of them. But if there exists a categorization of projects, one can analyze the properties of the project classes and then manage similar projects similarly. In this study, the R&D projects of a main military electronics company of Turkey, are analyzed. Tunç (2004) has developed a m...
A probabilistic approach to multi criteria sorting problem Buğdacı, Aslı Gül; Köksalan, Murat; Department of Industrial Engineering (2009) We aim to classify alternatives evaluated in multiple criteria among preference ordered classes assuming an underlying additive utility function. We develop a probabilistic classification method by calculating the probability of an alternative being in each class. We assign alternatives to classes based on threshold probabilities. We require the decision maker to place an alternative to a class when no alternatives satisfy the required thresholds. We find new probabilities for unassigned alternatives in the...
The general lot sizing and scheduling problem with sequence dependent changeovers Koçlar, Ayşe; Süral, Haldun; Department of Industrial Engineering (2005) In this study, we consider the General Lot Sizing and Scheduling Problem in single level capacitated environments with sequence dependent item changeovers. Process industries may be regarded as suitable application areas of the problem. The focus on capacity utilization and intensively time consuming changeovers necessitate the integration of lot sizing and sequencing decisions in the production plan. We present a mathematical model which captures the essence of cases in the most generic and realistic setti...
An improved organization method for association rules and a basis for comparison of methods Jabarnejad, Masood; Köksal, Gülser; Department of Industrial Engineering (2010) In large data, set of mined association rules are typically large in number and hard to interpret. Some grouping and pruning methods have been developed to make rules more understandable. In this study, one of these methods is modified to be more effective and more efficient in applications including low thresholds for support or confidence, such as association analysis of product/process quality improvement. Results of experiments on benchmark datasets show that the proposed method groups and prunes more r...
