Multiperiod Multiproduct Advertising Budgeting: Stochastic Optimization Modeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a stochastic optimization model for the Multiperiod Multiproduct Advertising Budgeting problem, so that the expected profit of the advertising investment is maximized. The model is a convex optimization problem that can readily be solved by plain use of standard optimization software. It has been tested for planning a realistic advertising campaign. In our case study, the expected profit of the stochastic approach has been favorably compared with the expected profit of the deterministic approach. This provides a quantitative argument in favor of the stochastic approach for managerial decision making in a data-driven framework.

Optimal Multiperiod Design and Operation of Multiproduct Batch Plants
New alternatives for the multiperiod design and operation planning of multiproduct batch plants are presented. Unlike previous works, this approach configurates the plant in every period considering the assignment of parallel units of different sizes operating either in or out-of-phase. The objective function maximizes the net profit considering incomes, investment costs, and both product and r...
متن کاملScenario tree generation for multiperiod financial optimization by optimal discretization
1 Abstract. Multiperiod nancial optimization is usually based on a stochastic model for the possible market situations. There is a rich literature about modeling and estimation of continuous-state nancial processes, but little attention has been paid how to approximate such a process by a discrete-state scenario process and how to measure the pertaining approximation error. In this paper we sho...
متن کاملStochastic Programming of Time-Consistent Extensions of AVaR
We discuss multiperiod stochastic programming formulations of time-consistent extensions of average value-at-risk (AVaR); AVaR measures the risk of a random financial value. Multiperiod risk measures that are recursively defined over time are known to be time consistent. For a multiperiod extension of AVaR for stochastic value processes, we reformulate the recursion as a linear stochastic progr...
متن کاملApproximation to Multistage Stochastic Optimization in Multiperiod Batch Plant Scheduling under Demand Uncertainty
Abstract We consider the problem of scheduling under demand uncertainty a multiproduct batch plant represented through the State Task Network. Given a scheduling horizon consisting of several time-periods in which product demands are placed, the objective is to select a schedule that maximizes the expected profit. We present a multistage stochastic Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model,...
متن کاملStochastic evaluation and optimization of flexibility in multiproduct batch plants
This paper deals with the problem of evaluating and optimizing a stochastic measure that integrates flexibility and reliability in multiproduct batch plants. It is assumed that uncertainties in the product demands are given in terms of statistical distributions, and that expected failure rates of the equipment are given in terms of discrete probabilities. Based on recent work by the authors (St...
