Project scheduling problems with both resource constraints and uncertain task durations have applications in a variety of industries. While the existing research literature has been focusing on finding an a priori open-loop task sequence that minimiz

Benefit-cost analysis is required by law and regulation throughout the federal government. Robert Dorfman (1996) declares ‘Three prominent shortcomings of benefit-cost analysis as currently practiced are (1) it does not identify the population segm

We introduce a methodology for generalizing Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to incorporate the role and impact of constituencies in the classification of the model's attributes. Constituencies determine whether entities' attributes in a DEA study are

This paper modifies and interprets Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) using a linear economic model. This approach is similar to the cone input/output and assurance region approaches to DEA, but it is implemented so that the multipliers are measured in

Performance rating and comparison of a group of entities is frequently based on the values of several attributes. Such evaluations are often complicated by the absence of a natural or obvious way to weight the importance of the individual dimensions

In classical scheduling theory job processing times are constant. However, there are many situations where processing time of a job depends on the starting time of the job in the queue. This paper reviews the rapidly growing literature on single mach

Application of the Ito stochastic calculus to problems in economics and finance raises several modeling issues. McShane's canonical model and alternative stochastic calculus for handling these models resolves these issues in a satisfactory manner. Th

This paper provides an example of multiple local maxima to the likelihood function for a seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) model with a cross equation restriction. Since this is the least complex of the various structural equations models (SEM) an

Learning is often perceived as a cost-reducing endogenous by-product of production processes. In many applications this by-product is modeled as a learning curve; that is, a simple function of time or of cumulative production experience. In an earlie
