In this paper, the problem of creating a network to facilitate planning of an air reconnaissance mission is investigated. A comprehensive review of the literature shows that limited work has been done on the design of such networks in a hostile environment and that little research has accounted...

This paper examines the impact of arc metrics on the computational performance and spatial similarity in network interdiction modeling. Computational impact is measured in the number of iterations and total time required to reach an optimal solution. A combination of spatial analytical tools is...

This study analyzes the disaster response and recovery efforts following the January 12th, 2010 Haitian earthquake through the eyes of 18 different relief agencies. Focusing on the formation and maintenance of partnerships after the catastrophic earthquake, this paper explores the concepts of...

It has long been observed that model structure may play an important role in determining the effectiveness of certain solution techniques to mixed integer linear programs (MILPs). One implication is that solution techniques that work well for one class of MILP are often found to be effective on...

This study, based on a real problem in the industrial gas business, examines product bundling under B2B relations with two unique customer behavioral characteristics: (i) customers' discount expectation on products increases with the magnitude of the business offered to the seller, and (ii) they...
