Demand uncertainty in robust Home Care optimization

Robust Optimization Model of Reverse Logistics Network with Demand Uncertainty

A dynamic robust optimization model is established based on the objective of profit maximization to deal with the uncertainty of the problem through formulating a robust linear programming model. An equivalent robust optimization model using duality theory and auxiliary problem principle is obtained which allows the solutions to be derived more efficiently. Following the numerical simulation an...

Planning Wireless Networks with Demand Uncertainty using Robust Optimization

An optimal planning of future wireless networks is fundamental to satisfy rising traffic demands jointly with the utilization of sophisticated techniques, such as OFDMA. Current methods for this task require a static model of the problem. However, uncertainty of data arises frequently in wireless networks, e. g., fluctuating bit rate requirements. In this paper, robust optimization is applied t...

Robust Optimization of Multi-Period Production Planning Under Demand Uncertainty

Robust Inventory Routing Under Demand Uncertainty

This paper introduces a robust inventory routing problem where a supplier distributes a single product to multiple customers facing dynamic uncertain demands over a finite discrete time horizon. The probability distribution of the uncertain demand at each customer is not fully specified. The only available information is that these demands are independent and symmetric random variables which ca...

Robust optimization under multiband uncertainty

We provide an overview of the main results that we obtained studying uncertain mixed integer linear programs when the uncertainty is represented through the new multiband model [4]. Such model extends and refines the classical one proposed by Bertsimas and Sim [2] and is particularly suitable in the common case of arbitrary non-symmetric distributions of the uncertainty. Our investigations were...
