Modelling complex assemblies as a queueing network for lead time control
In this paper we develop an open queueing network for optimal design of multi-stage assemblies, in which each service station represents a manufacturing or assembly operation. The...

Water networks security: A two-stage mixed-integer stochastic program for sensor placement under uncertainty
This work describes a stochastic approach for the optimal placement of sensors in municipal water networks to detect maliciously injected contaminants. The model minimizes the exp...

Computing mean and variance under Dempster-Shafer uncertainty: Towards faster algorithms
In many real-life situations, we only have partial information about the actual probability distribution. For example, under Dempster-Shafer uncertainty, we only know the masses m...
