• Management problems of large organizations AI翻译
  作者：Hitch, CJ
  摘要：In this paper, which the late Charles J. Hitch gave as a Phi Beta Kappa Lecture in 1978, he surveys his experiences as Comptroller of the U.S. Defense Department and President of the University of California system. He found that, in spite of the widely differing contexts, the two settings exhibited similar structural problems. His planning and strategic decision-making experiences with them support some principles common to both, and contain interesting lessons for the operations research pro...

• Separating logistics flows in the Chicago Public School system AI翻译
  作者：Eisenstein, DD; Iyer, AV
  摘要：The central Chicago Public School warehouse was responsible for the distribution of supplies to 600 schools, including over $10 million annually of engineering and educational supplies. The system was fraught with problems-deliveries were not made according to schedule, schools were hoarding inventories, and some schools were paying a premium for reliable service from third party suppliers. This paper reports how we improved this logistics system. We built a mathematical model of the system, v...
• Monitoring drug use using Bayesian acceptance sampling: The Illinois experiment AI翻译

  摘要：Bayesian acceptance sampling was used to monitor illegal drug use in a population of probationers. The study utilizes an economic model of drug testing based on single-sample, single-attribute acceptance sampling. This approach reduces from 100% the amount of testing which must be done to monitor the use of illegal drugs in the population and provides a decision rule, vis-fi-vis a sampling plan, that specifies under what sampling outcome the entire population must be tested. The objective is t...
• A new generation of vehicle routing research: Robust algorithms, addressing uncertainty AI翻译

  摘要：In recent years new insights and algorithms have been obtained for the classical, deterministic vehicle routing problem as well as for natural stochastic and dynamic variations of it. These new developments are based on theoretical analysis, combine probabilistic and combinatorial modeling, and lead to new algorithms that produce near-optimal solutions, and a deeper understanding of uncertainty issues in vehicle routing. In this paper, we survey these new developments with an emphasis on the i...
