Abstract. One of the important aspects neglected in the literature related to cell formation problem is human issues. In this study, a bi-objective mathematical model is developed in which human issues and dynamic cell formation are taken into consideration simultaneously. The rst objective function deals with costs associated with machines and human issues. The costs of human issues relate to salary, hiring, ring, reward/penalty policy, and worker assignment. The second objective function takes into account labor utilization as a criterion for reward/penalty policy. Since the available time in di erent real conditions is not constant, we include learning e ect to consider the real workers time. The nature of dynamic cell formation problem is NP-hard, and thus a Linear Programming embedded Genetic Algorithm (LP-GA) is employed to solve the model. In order to improve the performance of the applied GA, its parameters are tuned by means of Central Composite Design (CCD) method. Moreover, to validate the LP-GA, some test problems are solved and the results are compared with those obtained from an exact method and GA. The computational results show that the near optimal solutions yielded by LP-GA are better than GA in large-sized problems.

“…Knowledge can be learned by units, such as an individual, a group, or a company and the relationships between units in an organization affect learning because knowledge is transferred between units (Argote et al 2003). Although the management literature has shown a variety of learning curves (e.g., Argote 1993;Wiersma 2007;Morrison 2008), the most classic learning curve captures the mechanism of "learning-by-doing" (Adler and Clark 1991) or experience-based learning. Experience provides learning units with the opportunity to learn through repetition and trial-and-error learning.…”

Acknowledgement: We are grateful for the exchanges with Cliff Binstock, the CEO of XBRL Cloud, who helped us understand the data of XBRL filing errors his company compiled and we used in our study. provider, more than 4000 filing errors have been identified. We examine the overall changing pattern of the errors to understand whether the vast number of errors may hamper the transition to the interactive data reporting. Using a sample of 4532 filings that contain 4260 errors, we document significant learning curves exhibited by the SEC XBRL filing environment, by the filers, and by the XBRL software vendors. Specifically, we find that the number of errors per filing is significantly decreasing as more quarters pass, when a company files more times, and when a higher version of software is used, suggesting that the SEC, the company filers, and the technology community all learn from their experiences and therefore the future filings are improved. Our findings provide evidence to encourage the regulatory body, the filers, and the XBRL technology supporting community to embrace the new disclosure requirement in financial reporting. The significantly decreased number of errors also helps address the information users' concerns regarding the data quality of XBRL filings.
