Abstract:

Thesis (M. Eng. in Logistics)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Engineering Systems Division, 2006.<br>Includes bibliographical references (leaves 97-97).<br>The cost of healthcare has been increasing over the past several years. From 1997 to 2002, the average cost for hospital stays increased 24 percent. The increase in healthcare cost can be explained by malpractice law suits and also by the increase in the cost of medical supplies (26 percent increase from 2000 to 2002). Though the Automated Point of Use (APU) technology and the Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) are helping hospitals red

Abstract:

The subject matter of this thesis is the definition, measurement and use of marginal cost as a tool of analysis to assist the process of decision-making in the water supply industry. Demand management is viewed in broad terms to include the establishment of an optimal structure and level of prices and investment in optimal capacity as well as investment in demand-restraining measures such as leakage detection and control. The study examines the definition of marginal cost as a benchmark for price setting. It provides empirical estimates of the various components of marginal cost of water suppl

Abstract:

"Uncertainty" is used broadly to refer to things that are unknown or incompletely understood. In operations management, basic sources of uncertainty may include decision uncertainty, model uncertainty, analytical uncertainty, data uncertainty, and so on. Although uncertainty is unavoidable in decision making, different mechanisms can be designed to mitigate the impact of uncertainty. One commonly used strategy is "decision postponement," wherein the decision maker purposefully delays some of the decisions to a time when uncertainty is reduced or resolved. This type of a recourse action provide

Abstract:

Government involvement in the production and marketing of milk and dairy products is more pronounced than in any other agricultural product. The U.S. government administers two major programs that affect significantly the production and marketing of milk throughout the United States. These are the Federal Milk Marketing Order Program and the Dairy Price Support Program. In Arizona, in addition to these two major programs, the United Dairymen of Arizona Cooperative operates a base system that determines how cooperative milk revenues are allocated among producer members.

Abstract:

In this thesis, we evaluate the use of incentives offered beyond a contract compared with those within a contract to motivate supplier investment in restoration capability, which can serve as a signal of reciprocity. In the rst chapter, we analytically examine to what extent a Direct incentive, which is paid by the manufacturer unconditionally prior to disruption, differs from an Indirect incentive, which is promised to be paid when a disruption occurs in a dyadic supply chain. We specify the conditions under which the two types of incentive are economically equivalent for both a manufacturer

Abstract:

Since 1989 Austria's investment activities in Central and Eastern Europe has intensified. Investments are concentrated in adjacent countries. Geographical proximity and close historical and cultural ties have enabled even small and medium-sized Austrian enterprises to achieve a 'first mover advantage'. Investments have been performed to a large extent in industries that are typically not connected with outsourcing activities (trade, finance and insurance, construction). Market-driven factors and strategic considerations are the ultimate objective of these investments. Only a few sectors, in pa

Abstract:

This thesis addresses a problem at the nexus of operations, strategy, and economics: in concentrated markets, on the one hand firms may need to expand capacity in order to improve their competitive position, and on the other they also seek to avoid industry excess capacity causing poor industry conditions to destroy the intended value creation. These considerations are opposite to each other. Too much capacity leads to underutilized resources and drives costs up. In contrast, too little capacity will limit the operation's capability to serve customers and earn revenues. The literature of the

Abstract:

The reliability and quality of suppliers' components are inevitably two factors that impact the performance of the supply chain. Stochastic reliability affects the final production quantity and hence makes it more difficult to predict the manufacturer's best ordering quantity as opposed to the simpler traditional news vendor model. In addition, the quality of suppliers' products directly influence the potential demand in the market. Hence every firm in the supply chain system faces the needs to invest time, money and effort to improve the product quality even though it may bring a higher pr

Abstract:

Railway power supply systems (RPSSs) differ mainly from public power systems from that the loads are moving. These moving loads are motoring trains. Trains can also be regenerating when braking and are then power sources. These loads consume comparatively much power, causing substantial voltage drops, not rarely so big that the loads are reduced. By practical reasons most RPSSs are single-phase AC or DC. Three-phase public grid power is either converted into single-phase for feeding the railway or the RPSS is compartmentalized into separate sections fed individually from alternating phase-pair

Abstract:

The investment management industry has proven to be a fertile ground for theoretical and empirical research over the past forty years, particularly in relation to the nature and quantification of risk.

This thesis investigates aspects of investment risk using alternative data to that used in much of the prior published research.

These increasing volumes of grain are being shipped in containers because containers offer opportunities to lower logistics costs and to broaden marketing options. Exporters are put at a co

Abstract:

Climate change, population growth, institutional changes and the uncertainties inherent in these pose a major challenge to planning and management of water supply systems. Using historical river flow records to predict the behaviour of water resource systems into the future is no longer sufficient since the hydrologic record can no longer be assumed to represent future conditions. Planning under uncertainty approaches must allow considering future uncertainties in the water supply as well as demand and the institutions that manage water and its uses. Furthermore, water systems are complex and

Abstract:

This diploma thesis focuses on the EU structural funds and their utilization in the development of municipal infrastructure. The thesis starts by introducing the theoretical knowledge which is followed by analysis of the status quo. Finally, it elaborates concrete proposal for financing of large investment project in a small village. The results should help municipal council to realize the possibilities of municipal budget in the implementation of extensive investments and as the basis for decision making of the method of financing.

Abstract:

Diese Arbeit besteht aus drei zusammengehörigen Essays, die eine theoretische Grundlage für Untersuchungen multilateraler Verhandlungen und strategischer Investitionen in drei unterschiedlichen Umgebungen liefert. Die vorgestellten Methoden werden angewandt um Entwicklungen in der eurasischen Gasversorgung zu analysieren. Der erste analytische Teil befasst sich mit multilateralen Verhandlungen zwischen Russland und den Transitstaaten für sein Gas, namentlich: Ukraine, Weißrussland und Polen. Es wird angenommen dass die beteiligten Länder heterogen sind und dass einige von ihnen nicht die

Abstract:

O estudo tem como foco principal analisar os fatores determinantes das estratégias da indústria de máquinas e equipamentos para construção no Brasil compreendendo o período entre 1980 e 2005. Para tanto, investiga-se a evolução dos investimentos em infra-estrutura no Brasil no referido período e sua influência sobre as estratégias dessa indústria. A análise propõe verificar os fatores determinantes da competitividade vistos a partir de um enfoque dinâmico, bem como quais os possíveis padrões de competição, tendo como base o setor de atuação de cada empresa.

Abstract:

In the push for clean and renewable fuels, timber derived biomass is a promising frontier for biofuel production in the United States. This thesis approaches the established timberlands biofuel implementation problem with three different mathematical programming studies, each testing feasibility and sustainability in different economic and supply related situations. In the first study, a competitive game theory approach was utilized to provide new insights into the behavior within a timberlands supply chain. We utilized Stackelberg game theory modeled with bilevel programming to represent the
