Stochastic uncapacitated hub location
We study stochastic uncapacitated hub location problems in which uncertainty is associated to demands and transportation costs. We show that the stochastic problems with uncertain demands or dependent transportation costs are equivalent to their associated deterministic expected value problem (EVP), in which random variables are replaced by their expectations. In the case of uncertain independe...
متن کاملOrdinal Optimization Approach to Stochastic Simulation Optimization Problems and Applications
In this paper, we propose an ordinal optimization approach to solve for a good enough solution of the stochastic simulation optimization problem with huge decision-variable space. We apply the proposed ordinal optimization algorithm to G/G/1/K polling systems to solve for a good enough number-limited service discipline to minimize the weighting average waiting time. We have compared our results...
متن کاملHierarchical Facility Location and Hub Network Problems: A literature review
In this paper, a complete review of published researches about hierarchical facility location and hub network problems is presented. Hierarchical network is a system where facilities with different service levels interact in a top-down way or vice versa. In Hierarchical systems, service levels are composed of different facilities. Published papers from (1970) to (2015) have been studied and a c...
متن کاملOptimization of Stochastic Discrete Event Simulation Models
This short note gives a brief overview of optimization approaches for stochastic discrete event simulation. In particular it shows how by the combination of different methods hybrid algorithms can be composed that allow a fairly efficient and reliable optimization of medium sized models.
متن کاملStochastic approximation to understand simple simulation models
This paper illustrates how a deterministic approximation of a stochastic process can be usefully applied to analyse the dynamics of many simple simulation models. To demonstrate the type of results that can be obtained using this approximation, we present two illustrative examples which are meant to serve as methodological references for researchers exploring this area. Finally, we prove some c...
