This paper discusses a discrete event simulation model developed to identify and understand the impact of different failures on the overall production capabilities in a chemical p...
We study a stochastic optimization problem that has its roots in financial portfolio design. The problem has a specified deterministic objective function and constraints on the co...
Many inference methods of queueing systems have been developed on the basis of Larson's QIE(queue inference engine) with the assumption of homogeneous Poisson arrivals. It in...
Staffing and scheduling optimization in large multiskill call centers is time-consuming, mainly because it requires lengthy simulations to evaluate performance measures and their ...
