Organisations seek to adopt strategies increase their productivity and quality in highly competitive markets. For this purpose, Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is often used. It frequently combined with other scientific areas such as Ergonomics. Integrating LSS Ergonomics may improve while preserving workers' health safety. This study presents a systematic literature review clarify the impacts of integrating on organisations. Also, it seeks assess main limitations answering defined research questions. The was conducted Scopus Web Science. From 74 results, 16 articles were included based eligibility criteria. results show that few studies report application both areas. As for Ergonomics, no pattern observed methods tools be applied, highlighting most common DMAIC cycle Value Stream Mapping tool.

Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods have been widely used among researchers to provide a trade-off solution between best and worst, considering conflicting criteria sets of preferences. An efficient systematic literature review these is needed maintain their application in distinctive domains. To this end, paper presents comprehensive survey on "multi-objective optimization by ratio analysis" (MOORA) method its fuzzy extensions developed discussed recent years. This includes articles categorized based the publication name, publishing year, journal type applications, extensions. In addition, will enhance understanding practitioners decision-makers MOORA method, development, hybridization, different areas, future work. The study revealed that technique was predominantly with TOPSIS approach, followed AHP COPRAS methods. Furthermore, 76.28 % use single hybridization approaches all studies, while 23.72 environment.

Aims and Background: Mobile workstations are frequently used in challenging environments of heterogeneous networks. Users must move between various networks for a myriad purposes, including vertical handover. At this time, it is critical the mobile station to quickly pick most appropriate from all identified alternative connections with decision outcome, avoiding ping-pong effect greatest extent feasible. Objectives Methodology: Based on combination network characteristics as well user choice, study offers selection method. This technique integrates three common Multi-Attribute Decision-Making (MADM) techniques, notably Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP), Entropy, Technique Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), take into consideration preferences every prospective real scenario For different traffic classes, FAHP first utilized determine weights parameters utility numbers total options available. Next, entropies TOPSIS obtain only unbiased factors principles totally options. Results: The suitable networks, whose number larger than that equivalent present phone station, chosen provide accessibility based each system limit. suggested method not eliminates particular algorithm's one-sided character but also dynamically changes percentage desired outcome needs. Conclusion: proposed model was compared existing hybrid methods. results showed could precisely choose optimized connectivity significantly reduce value handoffs.

Decision-makers are forced apply screening filtering method reduce size problem, which will slow down process eliminate some potential rest process. Implementing MCDM methods high-performance parallel distributed computing environments becomes crucial ensure scalability solutions Big Data contexts, where can consider vast alternatives, each being described on basis criteria. In this context, we TOPSIS widely used methods. We present implementation based MapReduce paradigm. This solution response time facilitate analysis robustness sensitivity high-dimension problem at reasonable time.
