Management of school locations allowing for free school choice

Haase, Knut; Müller, Sven - In: Omega 41 (2013) 5, pp. 847-855

Nearly without exception, we find in literature (school) location models with exogenously given demand. Indeed, we know from a large number of empirical studies that this assumption is unrealistic. Therefore, we propose a discrete location model for school network planning with free school...

Reinforcement learning for joint pricing, lead-time and scheduling decisions in make-to-order systems

Li, Xueping; Wang, Jiao; Sawhney, Rapinder - In: European Journal of Operational Research 221 (2012) 1, pp. 99-109

The paper investigates a problem faced by a make-to-order (MTO) firm that has the ability to reject or accept orders, and set prices and lead-times to influence demands. Inventory holding costs for early completed orders, tardiness costs for late delivery orders, order rejection costs,...

Evaluation of Crop Models for Simulating and Optimizing Deficit Irrigation Systems in Arid and Semi-arid Countries Under Climate Variability

Kloss, Sebastian; Pushpalatha, Raji; Kamoyo, Kefasi; … - In: Water Resources Management 26 (2012) 4, pp. 997-1014

The variability of fresh water availability in arid and semi-arid countries poses a serious challenge to farmers to cope with when depending on irrigation for crop growing. This has shifted the focus onto improving irrigation management and water productivity (WP) through controlled deficit...

Computing Bid Prices for Revenue Management Under Customer Choice Behavior

Chaneton, Juan M.; Vulcano, Gustavo - In: Manufacturing & Service Operations Management 13 (2011) 4, pp. 452-470

We consider a choice-based, network revenue management (RM) problem in a setting where heterogeneous customers consider an assortment of products offered by a firm (e.g., different flight times, fare classes, and/or routes). Individual choice decisions are modeled through an ordered list of...
