Efficient Network Sharing With Asymmetric Constraint Information

Decentralized Inventory Sharing with Asymmetric Information

We study the information asymmetry issues in a decentralized inventory sharing system consisting of a manufacturer and two independent retailers, who privately hold demand information, non-cooperatively place their orders, but cooperatively share inventories with each other. We find that while the manufacturer needs retailers’ mean demand and standard deviation for her wholesale price decision,...

Asymmetric Sharing

Where natural evolution has lead to a wide variety of coexisting species, evolutionary algorithms tend to end up with nearly identical individuals. Techniques known as niching aim to avoid this. However, they often depend on a threshold parameter, known as the sharing radius or niche radius. It serves as a similarity threshold. This is a critical, problem-dependent parameter. How to set it is k...

Concrete Reinforcement Modeling for Efficient Information Sharing

Concrete reinforcing requires coordination among many roles: structural engineer, estimator, detailer, fabricator, installer and others. The methods used to define and represent concrete reinforcement elements and assemblies in building information models is crucial in determining the efficiency of sharing data among BIM platforms and the effectiveness of using the carried data in production pl...
