Surprisingly, I can get internet connection from the guest house this morning and this will certainly save the trouble of going to the office at the Industrial Engineering. They have just moved to a new building which is at the other end of the University. With the minus 4 celcuis temperature outside, I'd rather stay here as it's close to where I can get my food supplies. I don't intend to go out yet as I still have cornflakes and bread for my breakfast. I miss my morning coffee though as the kitchen here is not that equipped with kettle and so on.
We are making some progress; we already have the weights for the criterias needed to determine the level of importance. I still need to send out questionaires to get more judgements on the weights. I will email to my fellow NMCs hopefully they could spare some time to respond to our questionaire.
The plan is to produce two abstracts for MISTA and IMASPORTS and to work on the full paper for journal. It really is tough to develop the model, even Mujgan agreed on it too. The problem is NP-hard and it's not possible to get optimal solution. I might have to struggle on my heuristics to get the solution.
I have lots of things to work on; this coming Tuesday, I have to present at the seminar for the post-graduate and I need to prepare the slides too. I don't know how much they can get from me; lectures are delivered in Turkish. According to them, they tried to include like 30% in English but it didn't work. I wonder if they could understand what I'll be talking about...even if I speak in Malay, they would not be able to distinguish it :-)
Apart from a little hiccups while travelling here, I'm glad that I came as I met lots of good people here especially Mujgan...
