Some important conceptual problems concerning the application of chance constrained programming (CCP) to risky practical decision problems are discussed by comparing CCP to stochastic programming with recourse (SPR). We expand on Garstka's distinction between mathematical equivalence and...

Some management science models require estimates of distances between points in a road network based on the point coordinates. This paper evaluates the accuracy of a range of reasonable forms for distance estimating functions using samples of urban and rural road distances. The intent is to...
