Resolving Facility Layout Issues in an Ontario Bakery Using CRAFT with Numerous Departments and Probabilistic Rack Movement
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, J., & Penaranda, K. (2024, May). Resolving Facility Layout Issues in an Ontario Bakery Using CRAFT with Numerous Departments and Probabilistic Rack Movement. Presented at 2024 IEEE 4th International Conference on Human-Machine Systems (ICHMS), Toronto, Canada

A bakery in Ontario had rack disorder and storage issues due to facility layout problems. A Computerized Relative Allocation of Facilities Technique (CRAFT) analysis was performed with twenty departments and two conditional (probabilistic weighted) r...

Capacity and incapacity: an appropriate border for non-consensual interventions? (2024)
Journal Article
Stavert, J. (in press). Capacity and incapacity: an appropriate border for non-consensual interventions?. International Journal of Law and Psychiatry,

Those who support decision-making capacity as a criterion for non-consensual interventions for persons with mental disabilities (mental illness, learning disability, neurodivergence, acquired brain injury and dementia) argue that it creates parity be...
