The marketing and sales polices of Iranian crude oil have been revised and changed after the Islamic Revolution of 1979. Production policy that drastically cut back production in order to maintain oil reserves for future generations. In terms of marketing Iranian crude oil, the new revolutionary...

From an analysis of the time series of volatility using recent high frequency data, Gatheral, Jaisson and Rosenbaum previously showed that log-volatility behaves essentially as a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst exponent H of order 0.1, at any reasonable time scale. The resulting Rough...

We generalize the algorithmic differentiation method proposed by Antonov (2016) from price Greeks to XVA Greeks. This method, named Backward Differentiation (BD), was developed in the context of computing price or PV Greeks for individual callable exotic trades.We start by treating cases where...

In this article, we study the algorithmic calculation of present values greeks for callable exotic instruments. The speed of greeks evaluations becomes important with recent initial margin rules, including the ISDA standard model SIMM, requiring sensitivity calculations for non-cleared deals...

Computing Standardized Initial Margin Model Margin Valuation Adjustment (SIMM-MVA) requires the simulation of future sensitivities, but these are expensive to compute for callable products. This paper introduces a method which avoids nested calls to the pricing function, similar to the use of...

In the current low-interest-rate environment, extending option models to negative rates has become an important issue. This paper describes one such extension of the widely used SABR model. We stress that our solution is more natural and attractive than the shifted SABR.An exact formula is...

In this paper we examine the Heston model in the limit of infinitely fast mean-reversion for the stochastic volatility process (CIR). We show that, under an appropriate scaling of the model parameters, the two-factor stochastic volatility Heston model can be exactly mapped to a one-factor...

The technologically intensive nature of the predictive maintenance (PdM) method restricts its use to companies with higher turnover. This research is aimed to propose a PdM model for an N-component repairable system by integrating non-homogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) models and a system...

Every machine degrades with time and requires maintenance. Among all types of maintenance policies, predictive maintenance is established as the best form of maintenance policy as numerous benefits are associated with it. Despite all the benefits, it finds restrictive usage in manufacturing...

This paper proposes a predictive maintenance policy using modified failure mode effect and criticality analysis (Mod-FMECA) technique. FMECA is used to identify failure modes, reasons, effects and criticality of the system (machine/plant) but in Mod-FMECA in addition to the analysis carried for...
