Server 1 remains permanently available for essential service of failed units, whereas server 2 goes on vacation and renders service based on the N-policy threshold, which may also provide optional and essential services. Server 1 may break down at a steady rate during its servicing period but immediately gets repaired and resume servicing the failed units. When the working unit fails, the available warm standby unit holds responsibility for the smooth operation of the system. The transition of standby units to operational mode may be unsuccessful with switching failure probability. We develop a Markovian model to obtain the steady-state probabilities. We explore computational and sensitivity analysis of different performance measures for various variability of the parameters","PeriodicalId":43244,"journal":{"name":"Operations Research and Decisions","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84054394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed model is based on the use of multi-criteria methods such as the 0–10 technique, object ranking, and optimisation methods – linear programming. The proposed solution integrates ranking and optimisation methods, the use of which may be helpful in the hands of managers in making management decisions. The proposed approach may also be helpful in developing a strategic scorecard, especially in the stage of formulating goals. It also enables the optimal selection of goals with the existing time constraints for the implementation of the strategy. The article presents a proposal for the use of the strategy implementation model and an example of its use. The strengths and weaknesses of the model were also indicated.","PeriodicalId":43244,"journal":{"name":"Operations Research and Decisions","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72900463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Decision-makers would like to know how many individuals will obtain such information.

We simulate the propagation of a rumour and propose an algorithm for estimating the parameters of the resulting dynamical system. The relation between the parameters defining the simulation and the dynamical system is also studied. We conclude that the simulation describes the phenomenon well, in particular when the method proposed in this paper is used to estimate the parameters.","PeriodicalId":43244,"journal":{"name":"Operations Research and Decisions","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135599675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application of chosen MCDA, namely elimination et choix traduisant la réalité (ELECTRE) method, allows for the elicitation of the decision maker (DM) preferences and subsequently leads to the final solution.

We assume a process of joining two random nodes leading to the bivariate Poisson probability mass function. There exist two types of links- one is horizontal (H) and the other is vertical (V), which support the continuous flow of commodities through the supply chain. This induces competition among workers at a node to manage these two types of links within fixed constraints and creates bargaining to decide the optimal degree of both types of links at a node. We use the Nash security point to obtain the bargaining solution describing the optimal links. We reduce the carrying cost and ordering cost of inventory, which are contrary in their nature by introducing horizontal and vertical links, respectively. We modify the total cost function and establish a new economic order quantity (EOQ), optimal shortage quantity, and total optimal cost in terms of the optimal degree of H and V cooperation.","PeriodicalId":43244,"journal":{"name":"Operations Research and Decisions","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84025194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to predict company credit scores with machine learning and modern statistical methods, both in sectoral and aggregated data. Analyses are made on 1881 companies operating in three different sectors that applied for loans from Turkey’s largest public bank. The results of the experiment are compared in terms of classification accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision and Mathews correlation coefficient. When the credit ratings are estimated on a sectoral basis, it is observed that the classification rate considerably changes. Considering the analysis results, it is seen that logistic regression analysis, support vector machines, random forest and XGBoost have better performance than decision tree and k-nearest neighbour for all data sets.","PeriodicalId":43244,"journal":{"name":"Operations Research and Decisions","volume":"391 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78067152","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, while the great majority of previous studies verified the causal trade-off investigated on the basis of single-country micro data with reference to one economy, this study takes perspective of cross-country diversity in terms of the investigated relationship. The confirmed link holds even when controlling inter alia for health status, education, unemployment, old-dependency ratio, interest rate, GDP per capita, or the share of salaries and wages in GDP. An important practical implication for the policy-makers is that decisions limited only to the increase in the universal pensionable age cannot be effective, since the occupational composition of an economy is very relevant.","PeriodicalId":43244,"journal":{"name":"Operations Research and Decisions","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74894163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed approach consists of three stages. In the first stage, defuzzification of the coefficients is carried out using the mean method of α-cut. Then, in the second stage, a crisp multi-objective quadratic fractional programming model (MOQFP) is constructed to obtain a non-fractional model based on an iterative parametric approach. In the final stage, this multiobjective non-fractional model is transformed to obtain a model with a single objective by applying the ε-constraint method. This final model is then solved to get desired solution. Also, an algorithm and flowchart expressing the methodology are given to present a clear picture of the approach.
