Capacity planning with uncertain endogenous technology learning

Manpower Planning with Uncertain Requirements

This paper examines a longitudinal model of a manpower system in which the demands for effective manpower is determined by the state of a ! aiite Markov chain, and there are delays in training an adequate supply of effective manpower. We present an operational method of calculating optimal appointment policies. This calculation can in turn be used to find the equilibrium operating rules for the...

Uncertain Technology

We develop a general equilibrium business cycle model with imperfectly observed neutral and investment-specific technology shocks. The model response to neutral technology shocks is similar to the response in an environment with perfect information. However the response to an investmentspecific shock is more persistent and depends on the distance between agent expectations and actual values at ...

Capacity planning and warehouse location in supply chains with uncertain demands

Submodular maximization with uncertain knapsack capacity

Weconsider themaximization problem of monotone submodular functions under an uncertain knapsack constraint. Specifically, the problem is discussed in the situation that the knapsack capacity is not given explicitly and can be accessed only through an oracle that answers whether or not the current solution is feasible when an item is added to the solution. Assuming that cancellation of the last ...

qfd planning with cost consideration in fuzzy environment

در عصر حاضر که رقابت بین سازمان ها بسیار گسترش یافته است، مطالعه و طرحریزی سیستم های تولیدی و خدماتی به منظور بهینه سازی عملکرد آنها اجتناب ناپذیر می باشد. بخش عمده ای از رقابت پذیری سازمان ها نتیجه رضایتمندی مشتریان آنها است. میزان موفقیت سازمان های امروزی به تلاش آنها در جهت شناسایی خواسته ها و نیازهای مشتریان و ارضای این نیازها بستگی دارد. از طرفی کوتاه کردن زمان ارائه محصول/خدمات به مشتریان...
