Hub Location Models Under Uncertainty
In this chapter, we review models and methods that incorporate uncertainty in hub location problems. In particular, we present stochastic and robust... -
Optimization Under Uncertainty
This chapter discusses several aspects of relevance in optimization under uncertainty. Different paradigms are reviewed, such as Robust Optimization,... -
Impact of loss aversion on the newsvendor problem: a literature review and insights for future researchers
The standard newsvendor problem has attempted to determine the ideal ordering quantity considering the trade-off between over-stocking and...

Beyond LP and MILP Problems ⊖
This chapter mentions several optimization problems which go beyond linear and mixed integer linear optimization. The focus is rather on motivation.... -
Multi-item order quantity optimization through stochastic goal programing
Managing multi-item economic order quantity (MIEOQ) problems within an uncertain business environment is a critical challenge. Decision-makers, with...

Contrasting Applications in Environmental Planning and Public Procurement
This chapter presents two types of applications—in Environmental Planning and Public Procurement—that differ in many aspects. The building bricks of... -
Stochastic programming approach for unidirectional quay crane scheduling problem with uncertainty
Quay crane scheduling is a key aspect of container terminal operation, which can be regarded as a decision-making process with uncertainty. Each task...

Applications of Transportation Models in Africa
Ample infrastructure, such as roads and proper vehicles to get goods to the right place at the right time, is an all-important factor in defining the... -
Decision-Making Under Uncertainty: Ingredients for Modeling
This chapter discusses several aspects of relevance when embedding uncertainty in optimization models aiming at supporting decision-making. These... -
Distributions and bootstrap for data-based stochastic programming
In the context of optimization under uncertainty, we consider various combinations of distribution estimation and resampling (bootstrap and bagging)...

Ensuring Safety and Security in Blockchains: A Private Capital Markets Example
The defining and a critical characteristic of blockchains powering the token economy is their potential to forge a strong ecosystem of disparate and... -
Regulatory sco** exercise for the future adoption of autonomous inland ships in Europe
Ship** is a heavily regulated sector, and autonomous ships will by no means be able to escape the public regulator’s agenda. Furthermore,...
