Improving blood products supply through donation tailoring
(Elsevier, 2019-02)Recent technological advances, called Multicomponent Apheresis, allow tailoring the blood donations based on the demand and current inventory levels of blood products. Different from the most common type of blood donation ... -
Influence maximization in social networks under Deterministic Linear Threshold Model
(Elsevier, 2018-12)We define the new Targeted and Budgeted Influence Maximization under Deterministic Linear Threshold Model problem and develop the novel and scalable TArgeted and BUdgeted Potential Greedy (TABU-PG) algorithm which allows ... -
Integrated airline schedule design and fleet assignment: polyhedral analysis and benders’ decomposition approach
(Informs, 2010-01)The main airline operations consist of schedule planning, fleet assignment, aircraft routing, and crew scheduling. To improve profitability, we present in this paper an integrated fleet assignment model with schedule ... -
Integrated blood collection and appointment scheduling
(Institute of Industrial Engineers, 2012)Considering the processing requirements of donated blood, we study an integrated blood collection and appointment scheduling problem. We develop a mixed integer programming model to maximize the amount of donated blood ... -
Integrated experimental design and nonlinear optimization to handle computationally expensive models under resource constraints
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2013-09)In many real-world applications of optimization, the underlying descriptive system model is defined by computationally expensive functions: simulation modules, numerical models and other “black box” model components are ... -
Integrating social network effects in the share-of-choice problem
(Wiley, 2017-12)Accounting for social network effects in marketing strategies has become an important issue. Taking a step back, we seek to incorporate and analyze social network effects on new product development and then propose a model ... -
Intelligent classification-based methods in customer profitability modeling
(Springer International Publishing, 2015)The expected profits from customers are important informations for the companies in giving acquisition/retention decisions and developing different strategies for different customer segments. Most of these decisions can ... -
International roaming traffic optimization with call quality
(SciTePress, 2019)In this study we focus on a Steering International Roaming Traffic (SIRT) problem with single service that concerns a telecommunication’s operators’ agreements with other operators in order to enable subscribers access ... -
Inventory routing for the last mile delivery of humanitarian relief supplies
(Springer Nature, 2020-09)Fast and equitable distribution of the humanitarian relief supplies is key to the success of relief operations. Delayed and inequitable deliveries can result in suffering of affected people and loss of lives. In this study, ... -
IP-based energetic reasoning for the resource constrained project scheduling problem
(Elsevier, 2010-08-01)In this paper, we consider the Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP). New feasibility tests for the energetic reasoning are introduced based on new integer programming (IP) formulations. Experimental ... -
Lane-exchange mechanisms for truckload carrier collaboration
(Informs, 2011-02)Because of historically high fuel prices, the trucking industry's operating expenses are higher than ever and thus profit margins are lower than ever. To cut costs, the trucking industry is searching for and exploring new ... -
A large neighborhood search algorithm and lower bounds for the variable-sized bin packing problem with conflicts
(Elsevier, 2023-08-01)In this paper, we study the Variable-Sized Bin Packing Problem with Conflicts (VSBPPC). In VSBPPC, a set of items each with a certain size has to be packed into bins of various types. Bin types differ in terms of their ... -
League scheduling and game bundling in sports industry
(Elsevier, 2014-08)Most sport clubs offer season tickets first and they allow purchasing single tickets at a later date. There are several decision problems within this context; the determination of the optimal time at which the switch from ... -
Least-cost influence maximization on social networks
(Informs, 2020-03)Viral-marketing strategies are of significant interest in the online economy. Roughly, in these problems, one seeks to identify which individuals to strategically target in a social network so that a given proportion of ... -
A literature review on inventory management in humanitarian supply chains
(Elsevier, 2016)In this paper, we present a review and analysis of studies that focus on humanitarian inventory planning and management. Specifically, we focus on papers which develop policies and models to determine how much to stock, ... -
Load dependent lead time modelling: a robust optimization approach
(IEEE, 2018-01-04)Although production planning models using nonlinear CFs have shown promising results for semiconductor wafer fabrication facilities, the lack of an effective methodology for estimating the CFs is a significant obstacle to ... -
A longitudinal model for song popularity prediction
(SciTePress, 2021)Usage of new generation music streaming platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music has increased rapidly in the last years. Automatic prediction of a song's popularity is valuable for these firms which in turn translates ... -
A machine learning approach to deal with ambiguity in the humanitarian decision-making
(Wiley, 2023-09)One of the major challenges for humanitarian organizations in response planning is dealing with the inherent ambiguity and uncertainty in disaster situations. The available information that comes from different sources in ... -
Managing platelet supply through improved routing of blood collection vehicles
(Elsevier, 2018-10)In this paper, we study the routing of blood collection vehicles for improving the platelet supply in the blood supply chain. In order to extract platelets, donated blood has to be processed at a central processing facility ...
