    , Article International Journal of Business Process Integration and Management ; Volume 6, Issue 3 , 2013 , Pages 247-267 ; 17418763 (ISSN) Ghanadbashi, S ; Khanbabaei, M ; Saniee Abadeh, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Business process reengineering (BPR) can help organisations to identify and improve their business processes. A major problem is the high volume of business process datasets with characteristics such as high dimensionality, noise, uncertainty in process datasets and complicated interactions among process variables. Data mining (DM) techniques facilitate the identification and analysis of business processes, and improve their performance by extracting the hidden knowledge in business process datasets. In this paper, we present the application of DM to BPR, based on two novel approaches. By a literature review, the first approach proposes DMbBPR model, mainly focuses on the applications of... 

    Identifying Affecting HR Factors on Unsuccessful Reengineering Projects

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Kordrostami, Melika (Author) ; Sepehri, Mehran (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In this study, factors which lead in failures in reengineering processes in project based companies have been investigated. The research used qualitative methods, and finally using theme analysis to identify the main factors.Consequently, the main causes of failure of re-engineering projects have been identified and classified in six basic categories including: organizational leadership, planning, human resources management, mental models causing resistance, culture and organizational climate and communication. That each of these themes includes some subset of the agents it represents. In this study, a suitable pattern for organizations which intend to perform reengineering has been...

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Abniki, Mahdi (Author) ; Akbari Jokar, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Sensitivity and importance of exports of goods and services has led countriesto identify its tools and factors in order todeveloptheirexports. One of the mostimportant factorsin the development ofexports of goodsandservices, is the customsformalities.Dueto the high volumeof trade and the increasingspeed ofbusiness,Customsisalsoinevitablybe transformed, Because the Customsclients, expect as fast as they trade their goods, the Customs formalities done.In this research , we have tried to improve the customs export procedures, in accordance with the objectives and outlined prospects for foreign trade space provided. Thus, while recognizing the duties and customs policies and the study of the... 

    Investigation and Correction of Major Processes in Mineral Projects with Organization Structure

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Akbari, Mahsa (Author) ; Sepehri, Mehran (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    First processes and structures related to mining projects and holding companies are introduced after words using descriptive and discovery research method. The processes are analyzed and FakurSanat holding company structures and processes are examined as an analyzed organization. Suggestions are also provided structures and processes amendment or to reinforce each of them. Processes and structures have been described without any change or correction. Then, FakurSanat Tehran Company which was investigated as a Holding company, and suggestions that were made regarding the correcting and reinforcing its processes and structures have been mentioned. These processes and structures have been... 

    Managing reengineering operations

    , Article 2006 IEEE International Conference on Management of Innovation and Technology, ICMIT 2006, Singapore, 21 June 2006 through 23 June 2006 ; Volume 1 , 2006 , Pages 268-269 ; 1424401488 (ISBN); 9781424401482 (ISBN) Afshar, A ; Sepehri, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    Fifteen years after introduction of Business Process Reengineering (BPR) and a series of successful and not-so-successful BPR implementation, a revised methodology is needed to incorporate cases of major and sudden organizational or environmental changes with BPR. The new methodology can also be particularly applicable to project oriented businesses. September 11, Tsunami, and other major world events show that nothing is constant but change. A reengineered process may only stay as the environment factors stay the same. Therefore, the processes can no longer be the central focus of reengineering, but the output needs. Technology has enabled us to refocus and apply reengineering constantly to... 

    An Integrated Methodology for Business Process Reengineering In Project-Based Organizations

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Nouri, Saeed (Author) ; Najmi, Manouchehr (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The Study of antecedents and considering the status of Project-Based Organizations (PBOs) in our country such as MSA, Azarab, Sadad Machine, etc indicates that they are facing lots of problems in different aspects. This bad situation is in a way that amendment of part of sections guarantees the continuity of bad performance of these companies and we have to apply Business Process Reengineering and establishing a radical change in these firms. So the present research according to managers and experts opinions, several year observations of the writer and review of the literature of BPR, Project Management (PMBOK) and PBOs; and based on a library research, introduces the processes of PBOs in 3... 

    Development of a Pattern-Based Methodology Engineering Framework for Business Process Reengineering (BPR)

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ghanadbashi, Saeedeh (Author) ; Ramsin, Raman (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The basic goal of reengineering is to reduce the complexity of a legacy system in order to keep its maintenance costs at an acceptable level. Business Process Reengineering (BPR) mainly focuses on the redesign of business processes in an organization in order to improve the relevant performance and efficiency factors influencing the processes, such as cost and speed, and also to promote the quality of the products produced. Among the different methods and techniques proposed for BPR, the pattern-oriented approach has received considerable attention by researchers. In this approach, the concept of patterns -successful solutions to recurring problems - is applied in the context of BPR in order... 

    Speech Enhancement Based upon Compressed Sensing

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Fakhar Firouzeh, Fereshteh (Author) ; Ghorshi, Alireza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    This thesis proposes a novel method for enhancing the speech signal based on compressed sensing. Compressed sensing, as a new rapidly growing research field, promises to effectively recover a sparse signal at the rate of below Nyquist rate. This revolutionary technology strongly relies on the sparsity of the signal and incoherency between sensing basis and representation basis. Exact recovery of a sparse signal will be occurred in a situation that the signal of interest sensed randomly and the measurements are also taken based on sparsity level and log factor of the signal dimension.
    In this research, compressed sensing method is proposed to reconstruct speech signal and for noise...

    Performance Assessment of PID Controllers based on MV and LQG Criteria

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Mousavi, Hossein (Author) ; Nobakhti, Amin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In this thesis, a new method for the design and Control Performance Assessment (CPA) of the Rrestricted-Structure (R-S) PID controllers family (P, I, PI, PD …) is proposed. The proposed method is capable of a systematic analysis of the tradeoff between the structural complexity of the controller and its performance.During the past two decades, control performance assessment has attracted much at- tention from academic and the industrial researchers. One of the most recent tools is the RS-CPA, proposed by Grimble in which restricted structure controllers such as the PID are assessed against optimal LQG measures. When one is able to impose a specific structure onto the controller, such as a...
