Title: Benefit distribution of private toll road: a cumulative prospect theory model with heterogeneous users

Abstract: This talk is based on a paper coauthored with Li-Jun Tian of Fuzhou University. We examine how capacity and toll choices of the Build-Operate-Transfer mode affect the benefit distribution among private sector, road users and public under the framework of cumulative prospect theory. In the proposed network equilibrium model, we divide all road users into several classes differentiated by their valuation of travel time, and let the class-specific travel demand be endogenous. Our numerical results show that the benefit distribution is indeed influenced by the travelers’ risk preference parameters significantly. Thus, administrators should carefully consider the travelers’ risk attitude and their heterogeneity before determining whether or not to employ the Build-Operate-Transfer mode.

Title: Sustainable Consumption & Green Wash

Abstract: Everyone’s heard the expression “whitewashing”. It is defined as “a coordinated attempt to hide unpleasant facts, especially in a political context”. Green washing is on the same premise but in an environmental context. It is green washing when a company or organization spends more time and money claiming to be “green” through advertising and marketing than actually implementing business practices that minimize the environmental impact. It’s whitewashing but with a green brush. Green washing is an enemy of GPP/SPP. A classic example is an energy company that runs a campaign touting a “green” technology they’re working on when, in fact, the “green” technology represents only a sliver of the company’s otherwise not-so-green business or may be marketed on the heels of oil spills or plant explosions.

3.Prof. Gursel Suer (Ohio University, USA)

Most of his research has been motivated by his projects and observations in industrial settings. He has edited seven conference proceedings and three special issues with different journals. He has published more than 110 papers in journals, edited books, conference proceedings and made more than 100 technical presentataions. He also advised more than 40 graduate students.

Title: A Hierarchical Approach for a Global Manufacturing Firm: From Operational Decisions to Layered Global Supply Design Issues

Abstract: In this talk, we will analyze a jewelry manufacturing company and discuss many interrelated projects/issues. We will start with the 1) operational issues such as line balancing; multiple manning, operator sharing, skill-based manpower allocation, learning and forgetting; product sequencing to achieve different objectives such as minimizing manpower transfers, minimizing makespan, minimizing number of machines; synchronized flow, and sequencing decisions in synchronized cells. Later, the talk will focus on 2) tactical issues such as master scheduling, Schedule-Based MRP, knowledge-based master scheduling, cell loading, family sequencing/scheduling. Scheduling and capacity planning interactions will be explored at this level in terms of overtime decisions, manpower levels, and number of cells. In the next level, 3) the talk will focus on strategic decisions where manufacturing system issues will be analyzed considering capacity-driven layered cellular design and hybrid manufacturing design including clustering, focusing, and family formation. Layered cellular design consists of dedicated, shared and remainder cells. Hybrid manufacturing system design focuses on identifying product lines, process layout and layered cellular design. The very recent study of identifying clusters based on both classical processing similarity and the newly proposed demand variability similarity will be introduced. The objective is to separate stable and unstable processes and products to be able to create smoother operations. In the next phase, 4) the discussion will shift to global supply chain design for the same company. Layered cellular design concepts are used in each manufacturing plant. Supplier selection issues will be briefly addressed. Business competition strategies will be stressed as a future direction to design global supply chains. Finally, 5) the layered cellular design concept will be expanded to layered supply chain design where certain plants will have simpler and more efficient cells whereas others will be running more complex product mixes with more complicated cell structures.

Prof. Chen has also been involved in consulting projects in the area of supply chain management and logistics.

Title: On Advance Booking of Semi-urgent and Stable Out-patients

Abstract: In this talk, we present an on-going project on an advance-scheduling problem that is motivated by the booking of specialist outpatient services at the Ambulatory Care Center of a major Hong Kong public hospital. The Center is a specialist out-patient clinic with 12 specialties including Medicine, Orthopaedics & Traumatology, and Cardiothoracic Surgery. Under each specialty, there may be multiple subspecialties; e.g., Orthopaedics & Traumatology provides several subspecialties such as Foot & Ankle and Joint. The Center only accepts advance-booked patients. New patients are referred by community or other clinics and subsequent patients are follow-up cases. They are classified into two types: stable and semi-urgent, based on a triage procedure. For each subspecialty, the Hong Kong Hospital Authority which governs all public hospitals sets a specific deadline for semi-urgent patients to be seen by doctors; e.g., for semi-urgent Foot & Ankle patients, the deadline is 6 weeks. However, there is no specific deadline for stable patients (whereas urgent patients are directly handled and treated by the Emergency Department). We explore the optimal booking properties and develop heuristics. Then, we use actual data to verify the effectiveness of those heuristics.
This is a Joint work with LIU Xing, QI Jin and ZHU Han.

Title: Routing Optimization Under Uncertainty

Abstract: Abstract: We consider a class of routing optimization problems under uncertainty in which all decisions are made before the uncertainty is realized. The objective is to obtain optimal routing solutions that would, as much as possible, adhere to a set of specied requirements after the uncertainty is realized. These problems including an optimal routing solution to meet the soft time window requirements at a subset of nodes when the travel time is uncertain, and sending multiple capacitated vehicles to different nodes to meet the customers’ uncertain demands. We introduce a precise mathematical framework for defining and solving such routing problems. In particular, we propose a new decision criterion, called the Requirements Violation (RV) Index, which quantifies the risk associated with the violation of requirements taking into account both the frequency of violations and their magnitudes whenever they occur. The criterion can handle instances when probability distributions are known, and ambiguity, when distributions are partially characterized through descriptive statistics such as moments information. We develop practically efficient algorithms involving Benders decomposition to nd the exact optimal routing solution in which the RVIndex criterion is minimized, and give numerical results from several computational studies that show the attractive performance of the solutions.
This is joint work with Jin Qi (HKUST) and Patrick Jaillet (MIT).
