Optimal Production Planning in Stochastic Jobshops with Long-Run Average Cost

Presman, Ernst; Sethi, Suresh; Zhang, Hanqin - 2020

We consider a production planning problem for a general jobshop producing a number of products and subject to breakdown and repair of machines. The machine capacities are modeled as Markov chains. The objective is to choose the rates of production of the final products and intermediate parts on...

Average-cost pricing and dynamic selection incentives in the hospital sector

Kifmann, Mathias; Siciliani, Luigi - 2014

This study investigates hospitals’ dynamic incentives to select patients when hospitals are remunerated according to a prospective payment system of the DRG type. Given that prices typically reflect past average costs, we use a discrete-time dynamic framework. Patients differ in severity...

Bergh, Andreas; Nilsson, Therese - 2012

We show theoretically that the poor can benefit from price changes induced by higher income inequality. As the number of poor in a society increases, or when the income difference between rich and poor increases, the market for products aimed towards the poor grows and such products become more...
