Optimal Harvestâ€”Milling Scheduling in the Sugar Industry: Comment

Stringer, J. - In: Australian Journal of Management 2 (1977) 1, pp. 85-87

An alternative to Strong and Wolanowski's (1976) formulation of the sugar harvest-milling scheduling problem is suggested. The problem is formulated as a transport problem, which has several interesting features. For example: efficient computing routines are available; fewer constraints are...

A Case Study of Encoder Shift Scheduling under Uncertainty

Mabert, Vincent A. - In: Management Science 25 (1979) 7, pp. 623-631

This paper illustrates a shift scheduling procedure for a commercial bank's encoder work force for check processing in the presence of daily work load uncertainty. The author presents a chance constraint model for determining the appropriate safety capacity, analogous to safety stock in...

A Multiple Objective Approach to Space Planning for Academic Facilities

Ritzman, Larry; Bradford, John; Jacobs, Robert - In: Management Science 25 (1979) 9, pp. 895-906

objectives have been recognized. In order to adequate address these multiple objectives, a large mixed-integer goal programming … solution with respect to these objectives. The goal programming model served to evaluate several layout strategies and identify … for the same resources. Another finding is that a linear programming code is sufficient for this particular formulation of …

A Patrol Car Allocation Model: Capabilities and Algorithms

Chaiken, Jan M.; Dormont, Peter - In: Management Science 24 (1978) 12, pp. 1291-1300

A computer program has been designed for specifying the number of police patrol cars that should be on duty in each geographical command of a city at various times of day on each day of the week. It incorporates, by user option, nearly all the desirable features of earlier allocation programs,...

An Algorithm for the Dynamic Lot-Size Problem with Time-Varying Production Capacity Constraints

Baker, Kenneth R.; Dixon, Paul; Magazine, Michael J.; … - In: Management Science 24 (1978) 16, pp. 1710-1720

We consider the situation of a single item having a deterministic, time-varying demand pattern. Production lot sizes, so as to minimize the total of setup and carrying costs, are to be determined subject to production capacity restrictions that can vary with time. Two important theorems...
