Simheuristics: an introductory tutorial
Conference report
Open AccessBoth manufacturing and service industries are subject to uncertainty. Probability techniques and simulation methods allow us to model and analyze complex systems in which stochastic uncertainty is present. When the goal ... -
A biased-randomized simheuristic for a hybrid flow shop with stochastic processing times in the semiconductor industry
Conference report
Open AccessCompared to other industries, production systems in semiconductor manufacturing have an above-average level of complexity. Developments in recent decades document increasing product diversity, smaller batch sizes, and a ... -
Combining survival analysis and simheuristics to predict the risk of delays in urban ridesharing operations with random travel times
Conference report
Open AccessMore sustainable transportation and mobility concepts, such as ridesharing, are gaining momentum in modern smart cities. In many real-life scenarios, travel times among potential customers' locations should be modeled as ... -
Stackelberg game design and operation of a non-cooperative Bi-Level H2 supply chain under cournot equilibrium
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper proposes a hybrid solution algorithm for the mixed-integer bi-level programming problem (MIBLP) as a mathematical model of the Stackelberg game with the novelty inclusion of multi-followers in competition. The ... -
Solving facility location problems for disaster response using simheuristics and survival analysis: a hybrid modeling approach
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyOne of the important decisions for mitigating the risk from a sudden onset disaster is to determine the optimal location of relevant facilities (e.g., warehouses), because this affects the subsequent humanitarian operations. ... -
A pruning tool for the multi-objective optimization of autonomous electrification systems
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyDespite global progresses worldwide, many people living in rural areas still have no electricity. Autonomous generation systems based on renewable energy and microgrid distribution represent a viable alternative, but their ... -
