Abstract:
During recent years, biofuels have been encountering a particular interest as a means to address the increasing global energy demand reducing the dependency on fossil fuels and mitigating global warming potentials. Among biofuels, biomass-based ethanol has been assuming a leading position in substituting petroleum-based gasoline: even if its actual carbon footprint is still debated, it is generally acknowledged a reduction in net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions with respect to oil. Bioethanol current production is based on the so-called first generation conversion technologies, using the produ

Factoring could enable African SMEs to gain access to finance, as underwriters mainly place the risk on the receivables as opposed to the firm itself.

Abstract:
Newsvendor Models with Monte Carlo Sampling by Ijeoma Winifred Ekwegh The newsvendor model is used in solving inventory problems in which demand is random. In this thesis, we will focus on a method of using Monte Carlo sampling to estimate the order quantity that will either maximizes revenue or minimizes cost given that demand is uncertain. Given data, the Monte Carlo approach will be used in sampling data over scenarios and also estimating the probability density function. A bootstrapping process yields an empirical distribution for the order quantity that will maximize the expected profit. F

Dans une perspective de réalisation du marché unique européen, la libéralisation des différents secteurs d'activités en Europe dont celui des transports au courant des années 1990, entraîne le développement des différents modes et une surcroissance du transport routier avec certes de réels avantages en terme de développement économique, de compétitivité et d'emploi, mais aussi de sérieux inconvénients : congestion des grands axes routiers et augmentation du taux d'émissions de C02.

Abstract:
<p>This dissertation studies the integration of material and financial flows in supply chains, with the goal of examining the impact of cash flows on the individual firm's decision making and the overall supply chain efficiency. We develop analytical models to provide effective policy recommendations and derive managerial insights.</p><p>We first consider a credit-constrained firm that orders inventory to satisfy stochastic demand in a finite horizon. The firm provides trade credit to the customer and receives it from the supplier. A default penalty is incurred on the unfulfilled payment to th

Supply chain financial distress also can raise the supply chain disruptions with supply chain partners. Prior researches has explored the prediction of financial distress firms and the management of supply risk, but less discussed in the financial distress firms and impact on abnormal stock return between upstream and downstream partners in supply chains. This study used the event study for empirical. In this study,

Abstract:
Network systems, including transportation and logistic systems, electric power generation and distribution networks as well as financial networks, provide the critical infrastructure for the functioning of our societies and economies. The understanding of the dynamic behavior of such systems is also crucial to national security and prosperity. The identification of new connections between distinct network systems is the inspiration for the research in this dissertation. In particular, I answer two questions raised by Beckmann, McGuire, and Winsten (1956) and Copeland (1952) over half a century

Abstract:
In this dissertation, I developed a unified framework for the modeling, analysis, and computation of solutions to both international financial problems with intermediation as well as to global supply chains through the medium of networks. The framework that I developed can handle as many decision-makers within each country as needed (be they sources of funds, financial intermediaries, or, as in the case of global supply chains: manufacturers, retailers, and/or distributors, as well as consumers), and enables the prediction of the flows (financial and product) between tiers of the networks as w
