The On-Line Rental Problem with Risk and Probabilistic Forecast

چکیده
This paper proposes a generalized on-line risk-reward model, by introducing the notion of the probabilistic forecast. Using this model, we investigate the on-line rental problem. We design the risk rental algorithms under the basic probability forecast and the geometric distribution probability forecast, respectively. In contrast to the existing competitive analyses of the on-line rental problem, our results are more flexible and can help the investor choosing the optimal algorithm according to his/her own risk tolerance level and probabilistic forecast. Moreover, we also show that this model has a good linkage to the stochastic competitive ratio analysis.

A Facility Location Problem with Tchebychev Distance in the Presence of a Probabilistic Line Barrier
This paper considers the Tchebychev distance for a facility location problem with a probabilistic line barrier in the plane. In particular, we develop a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model for this problem that minimizes the total Tchebychev distance between a new facility and the existing facilities. A numerical example is solved to show the validity of the developed model. Becau...

This paper investigates a multi-period rectilinear distance 1-center location problem considering a line-shaped barrier, in which the starting point of the barrier follows the uniform distribution function. In addition, the existing points are sensitive to demands and locations. The purpose of the presented model is to minimize the maximum barrier distance from the new facility to the existing ...

The purpose of this problem is to choose a set of project activities for crashing, in a way that the expected project time, cost and risk are minimized and the expected quality is maximized. In this problem, each project activity can be performed with a specific executive mode. Each executive mode is characterized with four measures, namely the expected time, cost, quality and risk. In this pap...

متن کاملModeling of a Probabilistic Re-Entrant Line Bounded by Limited Operation Utilization Time
This paper presents an analytical model based on mean value analysis (MVA) technique for a probabilistic re-entrant line. The objective is to develop a solution method to determine the total cycle time of a Reflow Screening (RS) operation in a semiconductor assembly plant. The uniqueness of this operation is that it has to be borrowed from another department in order to perform the production s...
