In “Inventory Routing Problem Under Uncertainty”, Cui et al. develop a novel framework for the uncertain inventory routing problem and allow ambiguity in the probability distribution of each retailer's uncertain demand. Adopting a service-level viewpoint, they minimize the risk of uncertain inventory levels violating a prespecified acceptable range. They quantify that risk using a new decision criterion, the service violation index, that accounts for how often and how severely the inventory requirement is violated. The solutions proposed here are adaptive in the sense that they vary with the realization of uncertain demand. They provide algorithms to solve the problem exactly and then, demonstrate the superiority of their solutions by comparing them with several benchmarks.","PeriodicalId":19546,"journal":{"name":"Oper.

A personalized assortment can potentially allow enhancing the customer experience as well as improving the revenue of the retailer. In “Joint Assortment Optimization And Customization Under A Mixture Of Multinomial Logit Models: On The Value Of Personalized Assortments,” Omar El Housni and Huseyin Topaloglu consider an optimization model that jointly optimizes the assortment of products carried by an online retailer as well as the personalized assortments offered to each customer.

We develop an optimization-based approach to three key problems in school operations: school assignment, school bus routing, and school start time selection. Our methodology improves upon the state of the art in two ways: by leveraging a simplifying assumption of fixed route arrival times to tractably optimize school bus schedules and school start times simultaneously, and by proposing a postimprovement heuristic to jointly optimize assignment, bus routing, and scheduling. We evaluate our approach on a practical case study.","PeriodicalId":19546,"journal":{"name":"Oper.

Fashion consumption signals a consumer’s status to the broader population, so fashion brands and their consumers value exclusivity. Consequently, fashion advertising must balance sales generation with exclusivity loss. In this paper, we develop a model with these features of fashion and estimate it using advertising, price, and sales data for two styles of handbags and sunglasses. Our analysis provides insights for advertising budgeting and scheduling and finds that advertising optimally should decrease as the product increases in popularity and vice versa. This exerts a braking force on sales oscillations so that the fashion cycle decays as does the optimal advertising path. In addition to demonstrating how advertising cycling can impact a fashion firm’s profitability, we show how different styles of a fashion brand can cycle at different rates. By connecting advertising cycles to fashion cycles, we provide prescriptions for how fashion firms should manage different styles of the same brand.","PeriodicalId":19546,"journal":{"name":"Oper.

With continuously increasing e-commerce and last-mile delivery volumes, available parcel types at a warehouse can significantly impact unused space that is transported. In “A Branch-and-Repair Method for Three-Dimensional Bin Selection and Packing in E-Commerce,” Fontaine and Minner solve the trade-off between cost of unused space and cost of parcel variety through optimizing the portfolio of available parcel types. To solve large instances with millions of binary decision variables, the authors develop an exact decomposition method that allows for relaxing many binary variables, improves branch-and-check by repairing infeasible solutions, and shows how to avoid solving many subproblems. A case study using real data shows the efficiency of the proposed method and the impact of the portfolio on unused transportation space.","PeriodicalId":19546,"journal":{"name":"Oper.

A PSF, such as a management consulting firm, law firm, or an accounting firm, has employees of varying skills, backgrounds, qualifications, and experience. The operational problem of PSFs can be summarized as a bidding-cum-matching problem where the probability of winning depends on the quality of the employees promised for the job as well as the price quoted in the bid. Should the employees (hence, the quality) be committed as part of the bid, or should the firm rely on reputation? How much should the firm bid, given one or the other strategy and available resources, taking future bids into consideration? How many employees of each type should the firm have on hand? What is the optimal utilization level of each type? These are some of the questions this paper addresses.","PeriodicalId":19546,"journal":{"name":"Oper.

This leads to alarm fatigue, in which clinicians become desensitized and may inadvertently ignore real threats. “Individualized Dynamic Patient Monitoring Under Alarm Fatigue” by Piri, Huh, Shechter, and Hudson studies the problem of personalizing alarm thresholds for vital signs at a hospital while considering the ”boy who cried wolf” effect of false alarms. The authors create a model that learns patients’ personal alarm thresholds during their hospital stay and updates their alarm settings dynamically. They formulate the problem as a partially observable Markov decision process. They provide structural properties of the optimal policy and perform a numerical case study based on clinical data from an intensive care unit. They show that dynamic methods of alarm settings that explicitly consider the feedback loop of false positives can significantly reduce patient harm when compared with current methods of alarm settings.","PeriodicalId":19546,"journal":{"name":"Oper.

Grabisch et al. provide a theory of the efficient design of public debate. They develop a model of the coevolution of opinions and social relations that allow them to frame this problem in a formal setting. This model of opinion dynamics accounts for the persistence of heterogeneous opinions in society (“strong diversity”) and the dynamic interactions between opinions and social connections. The social planner faces a trade-off between fostering the convergence of opinions in society and increasing the risk of polarization and instability. To resolve this trade-off, the social planner must account for both structural and behavioral characteristics: how fragile is the social network and to what extent individuals tolerate disagreement with their peers.","PeriodicalId":19546,"journal":{"name":"Oper.

Although a more sophisticated choice model may capture the choice process of the customers more faithfully, a simpler choice model may result in tractable optimization problems when finding the optimal assortment of products to offer or prices to charge. One approach for coming up with sophisticated choice models is to mix existing ones, where the different segments of customers choose under the different choice models in the mixture. In “Revenue Management Under a Mixture of Independent Demand and Multinomial Logit Models,” Cao, Rusmevichientong, and Topaloglu demonstrate that mixing the independent demand and multinomial logit models can significantly increase the modeling flexibility of each of these choice models, while keeping the corresponding operational assortment optimization problems tractable.","PeriodicalId":19546,"journal":{"name":"Oper.
