Cooperative vehicle routing problem: an opportunity for cost saving
In this paper, a novel methodology is proposed to solve a cooperative multi-depot vehicle routing problem. We establish a mathematical model for multi-owner VRP in which each owner (i.e. player) manages single or multiple depots. The basic idea consists of offering an option that owners cooperatively manage the VRP to save their costs. We present cooperative game theory techniques for cost savi...

متن کاملLecture 21: Tightness of measures
Given two metric spaces S1, S2 and a measurable function f : S1 → S2, sup pose S1 is equipped with some probability measure P. This induces a proba bility measure on S2 which is denoted by Pf−1 and is defined by Pf−1(A) = P(f−1(A)) for every measurable set A ⊂ S2. Then for any random variable X : S2 → R, its expectation EPf−1 [X] is equal to EP[X(f)]. (Convince your self that this is the cas...

متن کاملRadiology benefit managers: cost saving or cost shifting?
PURPOSE Radiology benefit managers (RBMs) are widely used by private payers to manage the utilization of imaging services through prior authorization, and they have been proposed for use in the Medicare program. The authors created a framework for evaluating the impact of key parameters on the ability of RBMs to lower costs and used decision-analytic modeling to simulate the net impact of RBMs ...
