Budget allocation for permanent and contingent capacity under stochastic demand
We develop a model of budget allocation for permanent and contingent workforce under stochastic demand. The level of permanent capacity is determined at the beginning of the horizon and is kept constant throughout whereas the number of temporary workers to be hired must be decided in each period. Compared to existing budgeting models, this paper explicitly considers a budget constraint. Under t...
متن کاملJoint optimization of pricing and capacity allocation for two competitive airlines under demand uncertainty
Nowadays, airline industries should overcome different barriers regarding the fierce competition and changing consumer behavior. Thus, they attempt to focus on joint decision making which enables them to set pricing and capacity allocation to maximize their profits. In this research, we develop a model to optimize pricing and capacity allocation in a duopoly of single-flight leg for two competi...
متن کاملEquilibrium Capacity Expansion Under Stochastic Demand Growth
In critical energy infrastructure sectors (e.g. electric power generation, natural gas transportation, oil refining capacity) maintaining certain level of excess capacity is socially valuable (as it serves to protect against unexpected market conditions) but not necessarily compatible with the incentives for individual firms in the market. In this paper, we develop a dynamic oligopoly model wit...
متن کاملStochastic optimization for real time service capacity allocation under random service demand
The problem of repeated allocation of limited renewable service resources to distributed service centers is considered here. The objective is to assure a given Quality of Service expressed through percentage of demand which is satisfied during a specified time period. Resource requirements are not fully known at the time when a decision about the service resource distribution is taken. The prob...
متن کاملOptimal flexible capacity in newsboy problem under stochastic demand and lead-time
In this paper, we consider a newsvendor who is going to invest on dedicated or flexible capacity, our goal is to find the optimal investment policy to maximize total profit while the newsvendor faces uncertainty in lead time and demand simultaneously. As highlighted in literature, demand is stochastic, while lead time is constant. However, in reality lead time uncertainty decreases newsvendor's...
