Abstract:
Delivering health care services in an efficient and effective way has become a great challenge for many countries due to the aging population worldwide, rising health expenses, and increasingly complex healthcare delivery systems. It is widely recognized that models and analytical tools can aid decision-making at various levels of the healthcare delivery process, especially when decisions have to be made under uncertainty. This thesis employs stochastic models to improve decision-making under uncertainty in two specific healthcare settings: inpatient flow management and infectious disease mode

Background: In March 2020, because of the Covid-19 pandemic, suddenly and completely unexpected, governments worldwide replaced face-to-face education with emergency distance teaching. Studies showed that students and teachers, in general, had been negatively affected by the strategy. Upper secondary school teachers and students in Sweden were affected and have now worked and studied from home for more than one year. Problem: Teachers were now asked to do extraordinary things regarding course delivery and learning. However, school curricula have not changed, and it has been up to the teachers

China’s leading position in the global luxury market indicates the popularity of luxury items among Chinese consumers. Previous research has extensively examined the motivators of Chinese luxury consumption, emphasising the importance of social and personal motivations, such as social conformity, peer influence, and face consciousness. However, the COVID-19 pandemic, the first global health crisis in nearly a century, severely disrupted consumer behaviour, including luxury consumption.

Abstract:
The unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the tourism and hospitality industry. Hotel managers feel uncertain facing this situation where the hospitality industry struggles to survive. Evidently, changes in crisis management and crisis planning practices are needed as the global pandemic continues to affect the industry. Most past studies put more emphasis on the crisis response and recovery rather than pre-crisis stage. Further, despite the negative impacts that crises,such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have on the industry, hotel managers have continued to show limited attention
