We introduce a stochastic share-a-ride problem with electric vehicles, in which passenger and parcel orders can be served in a shared manner by the same vehicle in a ride-hailing system. We assume that customer service requests arrive stochastically in the system. We consider that passenger...

Generating multivariate Poisson random variables is essential in many applications, such as multi echelon supply chain systems, multi-item / multi-period pricing models, accident monitoring systems, etc. Current simulation methods suffer from limitations ranging from computational complexity to...

The Bernoulli and Poisson are two popular discrete count processes; however, both rely on strict assumptions that motivate their use. We instead propose a generalized count process (the Conway-Maxwell-Poisson process) that not only includes the Bernoulli and Poisson processes as special cases,...
