Measuring human development: a stochastic dominance approach

Pinar, Mehmet; Stengos, Thanasis; Topaloglou, Nikolas - In: Journal of Economic Growth 18 (2013) 1, pp. 69-108

We consider a weighting scheme that yields a best-case scenario for measured human development such as the official equally-weighted Human Development Index (HDI) using an approach that relies on consistent tests for stochastic dominance efficiency. We compare the official equally-weighted HDI...

The reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from freight transport by pooling supply chains

Pan, Shenle; Ballot, Eric; Fontane, Frédéric - In: International Journal of Production Economics 143 (2013) 1, pp. 86-94

It is well known that freight consolidation is an effective way to improve the utilization of logistics resources. In fact today, this policy is locally and fragmentally implemented at the operational level. We propose here to explore the environmental impact of pooling of supply chains at the...
