Distributed renewable resources are one of the major technological inclinations that play a pivotal role in the future green power system. In this context, high penetration of Plug-In Electric Vehicles (PIEVs) may bring many challenges for the smart grid. PIEVs’ unscheduled utilization will cause technical issues for both generation side and demand side. High penetration of PIEVs may lead to re...

The market for selling reusable products is growing rapidly. Existing works for policy optimization often ignore the dynamic property of demand and the competition among providers. This paper studies service providers’ dynamic pricing in consideration of market competition and dynamics, which makes two key contributions. First, we propose a comprehensive model that takes into account the dynami...

The most convenient models of Solid Transportation (ST) problems have been justly considered a kind of uncertainty in their parameters such as fuzzy, grey, stochastic, etc. and usually, they suggest solving the main problems by solving some crisp equivalent model/models based on their proposed approach such as using ranking functions, embedding problems etc. Furthermore, there exist some shortc...

This study estimates the aggregate import demand function for Nigeria for the period of 1980 2010. Cointegration approach was implemented. While the error correction term in the estimated VEC model was evaluated for long run causal relationship, the short term coefficients were gauged for short term causal relationship between the explained and the explanatory variables. Results indicate: (i) t...

The aim of this paper is an investigation on the role of demand in industrial dynamics. Despite the decades-long debate on demand and innovation, theory still lacks a comprehensive analytical formulation. This paper proposes a model where demand is conceived as a peculiar blend of two conditions, market size, and users’ sophistication. These conditions drive firms’ incentives to innovate. As ma...
