A multi-tier linking approach to analyse performance of vehicle-based warehouse systems
(SSRN, 2016-04)
To improve operational flexibility, throughput capacity, and responsiveness in order fulfillment operations, several distribution centers are implementing autonomous vehicle-based storage and retrieval (AVS/R) system in ...
Throughput matching algorithm and stochastic models for analysis of open and closed manufacturing systems
(SSRN, 2016-02)
Order release policies such as card-controlled CONWIP policy aim at improving system responsiveness and minimizing system-wide inventory levels. It is not clear if order release policies (without card control) can be equally ...
Minimum wage comparison in Asian countries: minimum wage fixing
(WageIndicator Foundation, 2016-02)
For countries which have a minimum wage, the minimum wage fixing system differs according to objectives and criteria, machinery and procedures, coverage, and subsequent adjustment as well as the operation and enforcement ...
Regional low-emission pathways from global models
(SSRN, 2016-03)
Governments worldwide have agreed that international climate policy should aim to limit the increase of global mean temperature to less than 2°C with respect to pre-industrial levels. The purpose of this paper is to analyse ...

Handling inverse optimal control problems using evolutionary bilevel optimization
(IEEE, 2016-07)
Optimal control is a task where it is desired to determine the inputs of a dynamical system that optimize (minimize or maximize) a specified cost functional, also known as performance index, while satisfying any constraints ...
Solving optimistic bi level programs by iteratively approximating lower level optimal value function
(IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC), 2016-07)
Bilevel optimization is a nested optimization problem that contains one optimization task as a constraint to another optimization task. Owing to enormous applications that are bilevel in nature, these problems have received ...
Finding reliable solutions in bi level optimization problems under uncertainties
(GECCO '16: Proceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference 2016, 2016-07)
Bilevel optimization problems are referred to as having a nested inner optimization problem as a constraint to a outer optimization problem in the domain of mathematical programming. It is also known as Stackelberg problems ...
Factors determining inbound and outbound m&a in an industry in India
(IIM Ahmedabad, 2016-03)
There is an increasing trend in outward and inward FDI from India and in India over last one
decade. It is interesting to observe that some industries have attracted more inward and outward
FDI as compared to others. ...
