Comparison of forecasting techniques in revenue management for a national railway in an emerging Asian economy
(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2015)
In this paper, we make an attempt to compare various forecasting techniques to predict railway bookings for the final day of departure in the national railways of emerging Asian economy (NREAE). We use NREAE data of 2005-2008 ...
A logarithmic goal programming approach to develop the utility function for a railway travel
(International Journal of Revenue Management, 2015)
Railway passengers are in a dilemma to choose the best train among several alternatives available in a particular route. A relative comparison of competing railways helps the passenger to make an informed choice before the ...
An expanded database structure for a class of multi-period, stochastic mathematical programming models for process industries
(Elsevier, 2014)
We introduce a multiple scenario, multiple period, optimization-based decision support system (DSS) for strategic planning in a process industry. The DSS is based on a two stage stochastic linear program (SLP) with recourse ...

New decision support system for strategic planning in process industries: computational results
(Elsevier, 2018-10)
The impact of a Stochastic Linear Programming (SLP) based Decision Support System in a manufacturing company, such as an integrated aluminum plant, is measured by two important parameters, the VSS and EVPI. With the real ...
A two-part dynamic pricing policy for household electricity consumption scheduling with minimized expenditure
(Elsevier, 2018-02-22)
In this paper we propose an optimization model for scheduling electrical appliances for an individual household. Here, customers are offered dynamic prices which are a function of that household’s planned consumption and ...
A survey of linear programming applications in an integrated steel plant
(2010-10-18)
Mathematical programming techniques were used in the steel industry as early as 1958, and many
applications of optimization in steel production have been reported since then. In this survey, we
summarize published ...

This is the ®rst time that a special section of International Transactions in Operational Research is
devoted to papers related to IFORS OR for Development Prize Competition and I am happy to be the
editor of this special ...
A passenger revenue management system (RMS) for a national railway in an emerging Asian economy
(Journal of Revenue & Pricing Management, 2012)
In this article, we provide the mathematical model for a Revenue Management System that consists of an optimizer, a simulator and a forecaster, and implement these systems on the National Railway of an Emerging Asian Economy ...
Survey on revenue management in media and broadcasting
(INFORMS, 2017)
Advertisements are a key source of revenue for companies in the broadcasting
and web industries. However, because of increasing competition, advertisers and web publishers have been forced to find innovative ways to ...
