SFA estimate results highlight that budget and manpower productivity significantly contribute to efficiency, while disparities in budget allocation and outdated infrastructure contribute to inefficiencies. GIA underscores the dominance of commercial incineration and landfill performance, driven by strict industrial regulations and waste-to-energy initiatives. Conversely, commercial recycling and domestic landfill perform the worst. ANN reveals that budget productivity and manpower productivity have stronger and more impactful relationships with efficiency scores in cities like Seoul, Busan, and Incheon. On the inefficiency side, high facility installation costs, operation costs, and miscellaneous costs demonstrate significant negative impact on overall effectiveness across multiple cities.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"351 3","pages":"1883 - 1923"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144888085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In India, outsourcing to Third Party Reverse Logistics Providers (3PRLPs) is a prominent initiative for a successful RL business model. However, small and mid-size enterprises (SMEs) face a number of risks in outsourcing RL activities. In this context, this study fills the literature gap by identifying and analysing the risk factors associated with outsourcing to 3PRLPs by SMEs in electronics sectors in India for a successful and sustainable reverse supply chain (RSC). Initially, 30 risk factors in the context of RL outsourcing are identified and clustered into 6 risk categories, namely “relationship and competence risks”, “economic risks”, “operational risks”, “organizational risks”, “social risks”, and “environmental risks”. Then, a weighted influence non-linear gauge system (WINGS) is used to understand the level of importance of each risk category and, simultaneously, they are also classified in cause and result groups. Similarly, risk factors within each risk category are evaluated. The findings indicate that SMEs in the electronics sector in India encounter several risks in outsourcing RL activities like uncertainty in returns, financial burden, stiff competitions, 3PRLP opportunism, and many more. Hence, an immediate intervention is recommended for SMEs in the electronics sector in India to overcome the risk factors under the “economic” and “relationship and competence” risk categories to implement sustainable and business efficient RL through outsourcing to 3PRLP. The implications drawn from the study will guide the RL team experts of SMEs to deal with risks in the course of outsourcing to 3PRLP.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"351 3","pages":"1989 - 2031"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144888045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Random shocks may cause damage to the system, and the degrees of the damage affect system degradation differently. In this paper, we consider a system, namely, a damage-resistant system, designed to withstand shocks up to a specified threshold. To consider the system damage resistance, we first propose a new shock classification based on the shock magnitude and define the damage resistance level of the system accordingly. Furthermore, because the system will be more vulnerable to shocks over time, we divide the system degradation process into two stages and propose nonlinear Wiener process degradation models with two stages by incorporating the system damage resilience level with the new shock classification. The closed-form system reliability functions for these two stages are further derived. Lastly, we conduct numerical examples with real-world data to demonstrate the practical application of our proposed model.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"352 1-2","pages":"169 - 192"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145037459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed RP is characterized by a two-fold convex combination of three elements (profits in three environments) at low reference levels, and a standard convex combination of two elements (profits in two environments) at high reference levels. We aim to use prospect theory with the above piecewise-formed RP to characterize the LA retailer’s optimal procurement strategy in maximizing her expected profit, and describe the effect on the procurement strategy from some parameters. We prove that there exists a procurement strategy inducing the LA retailer to make her optimal ordering decision given a random market with a general distribution. We analyze the respective effect of LA degree and reference level on retailer’s optimal procurement strategy, and obtain some intuitive insights, such as, a LA retailer always orders less than a loss-neutral one; increasing LA degree leads to more cautious ordering behavior; a lower RP level leads retailer to over-order, and a higher RP leads to under-order. Moreover, we find that the joint effect from LA degree and RP level on the optimal order quantity is mutually reinforcing. This joint effect also presents results consistent with people’s cognition, that is, the optimal order quantity of a LA retailer with RP is more likely to be lower than a classical retailer, compared to a risk-neutral retailer with RP.

As countries globally plan to combat climate change, supply chain sustainability is substantial. Digital technology, such as IoT, supports sustainability within supply chains. Still, studies infer that the adoption could be more direct and involve barriers that must be graded for efficient implementation and planning. Previous barrier grading models (i) did not accept natural language-based ratings; (ii) subjective orientation of experts’ weights is not well explored; (iii) hybrid determination of attributes’ weights is lacking; and (iv) personalized grades for barriers are also unexplored. Motivated by these gaps, this article develops an integrated model by considering preferences in the natural language form via double hierarchy fuzzy data (DHFD). Later, the rank sum (RS) approach is presented for determining the weights of experts, and the RS-Cronbach factor is put forward for the hybrid weight calculation of attributes. An algorithm to grade barriers is proposed based on WISP formulation combined with the Copeland method. Finally, a case example from Coimbatore is presented to understand the framework’s usefulness, and sensitivity/comparison reveals the pros and cons of the framework.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"351 3","pages":"2233 - 2285"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144888013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several thousand papers are published every year. This paper provides the first systematic survey on the best currently known approximability and inapproximability results for well-known TSP variants such as the “standard”, Path, Bottleneck, Maximum Scatter, Generalized, Clustered, Quota, Prize-Collecting, Time-dependent TSP, Traveling Purchaser Problem, Profitable Tour Problem, Orienteering Problem, TSP with Time Windows, and Orienteering Problem with Time Windows. The foundation of our survey is the definition scheme TSP-T3CO , which we propose as a uniform, easy-to-use and extensible means for the formal and precise definition of TSP variants. Applying TSP-T3CO to define a TSP variant reveals subtle differences within the same named variant and also brings out the differences between variants more clearly. We achieve the first comprehensive, concise, and compact representation of approximability results by using TSP-T3CO definitions. This makes it easier to understand the approximability landscape and the assumptions under which certain results hold.
