In light of the reality that decision-makers exhibit varying sensitivities to compensation expectations in response to opinion adjustment, the moderator’s demonstration of a preferred compensation mechanism determines the efficiency of the matching service. This article proposes a dynamic cost compensation mechanism driven by moderator preferences for group consensus in lending platforms. Firstly, the utility function describes adjusters’ preferences, defining three unit cost compensation preferences: Power-type I, II and right-partial S-shaped preferences. Subsequently, we construct a generalized dynamic minimum-cost consensus decision model to determine the optimal unit compensation strategies within the opinion interval delineated by the moderator. For the likelihood of equitable concerns arising from fluctuations in unit compensation costs, we enforce the fairness of the compensation strategy by incorporating the Gini coefficient as a constraint within the consensus model. To validate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed models, we apply the proposed models to online lending utilizing data obtained from an online peer-to-peer lending platform.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"347 3","pages":"1425 - 1454"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143925686","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 such scenarios, manufacturers are required to manage orders received through a cloud platform (referred to as cloud orders) while simultaneously fulfilling orders from their long-term and regular clients (local orders). The problem is to efficiently coordinate the production of both types of orders within shared manufacturing facilities. We formulate the problem into a bi-objective mixed integer programming model aimed at simultaneously minimizing the delivery time of cloud orders and mitigating the disruptions to local order production caused by cloud orders. This solution approach comprises three key components: computation of cloud orders’ starting times, construction of available time intervals of manufacturing facilities, and a bi-objective heuristic. This heuristic combines an enhanced hybrid discrete differential evolution with a modified forward–backward earliest starting time algorithm. We introduce an advanced population initialization technique, a novel individual update strategy, and an adaptive local search mechanism based on Pareto-dominance principles to improve the search capabilities of the algorithm towards discovering Pareto non-dominated solutions. Computational results show that the proposed approach outperforms the existing algorithm in most test instances in terms of five common metrics. Insights are discussed, highlighting the practical implications and potential benefits of the proposed approach for shared manufacturing scheduling.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"345 1","pages":"207 - 245"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10479-024-06380-z.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143108655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The manufacturers produce substitutable products using raw materials from two sources, new and recycled. The retailers, in turn, face the demands of new products and retailer-refurbished products, and recycle from the new product demand market. We investigated a number of cases, and our results indicate that CSR can enhance CLSCN performance but more to the party closest to the demand market. It also shows that consumer behavior, competition, CSR investment, and sustainable practices (new material procurement, recycling, refurbishing, re-manufacturing, and environmental costs), play an essential role in CSR and closing the loop. With higher landfill cost, more willingness to return from consumers, less disutility for consumers to return, higher level of recycling and refurbishing, and higher re-manufacturing rate, CSR level tends to improve. Policy-makers can use these findings to encourage firms to improve CSR in CLSCN.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"345 1","pages":"247 - 275"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10479-024-06420-8.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143108789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These unmeasured inefficiencies can result in inaccurate assessments of production capabilities, potentially leading to suboptimal operational and strategic decisions. To remedy this problem, we define new nonradial output-oriented and input-oriented plant capacity concepts based on nonradial Färe-Lovell efficiency measures. By leveraging nonradial measures, our approach captures multidimensional inefficiencies, providing a more nuanced and accurate evaluation of production performance across various input and output dimensions. Furthermore, we also explore how the introduction of nonradial attainability levels can render the attainable output-oriented plant capacity concept more flexible. This flexibility allows for the incorporation of realistic operational constraints, ensuring that capacity assessments are both practical and adaptable to diverse production environments. An empirical illustration on a secondary data set illustrates the pertinent differences between radial and nonradial plant capacity notions. Our empirical analysis demonstrates that nonradial measures offer a more detailed understanding of capacity utilization. In particular, it shows that nonradial plant capacity concepts are especially important on a nonconvex technology.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"345 1","pages":"169 - 205"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143108603","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}

This study delves into the complex dynamics of retail markets, particularly in duopoly settings, where two major retailers interact strategically to maximize their profits. The goal is to understand how supply disruptions influence not only pricing and advertising strategies but also sourcing decisions. Three game structures are presented to analyze interactions between retailers, aiming to maximize total profit by determining the optimal sale price and advertising investment. The paper introduces a mathematical formulation for these games and a methodology to find the optimal solution based on the sourcing strategy (single, dual, or multiple sourcing strategy).2</p><p> An extensive numerical example with discussion and sensitivity analysis is provided. The study's results can assist decision-makers in selecting the most appropriate sourcing strategy in the presence of disruptions. The optimal pricing and advertising investment in both disruption and non-disruption scenarios for retailers are identified. The study concludes that acting as the leader in the Stackelberg game rather than Nash leads to higher profits. Moreover, dual sourcing is more advantageous than multiple sourcing for retailers. The managerial insights offer useful recommendations for retailers to improve their position in the competitive market.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"344 1","pages":"217 - 266"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142912756","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}
