Interdependence: An Alternative Conceptualization, Bart Victor, Richard S. Blackburn
Interdependence: An Alternative Conceptualization, Bart Victor, Richard S. Blackburn
Department of Management: Faculty Publications
Conceptualizations of interdependence offered by Thompson (1967) and McCann and Ferry (1979) fail to satisfy basic requirements for empirical or practical investigations of complex organizations. An alternative conceptualization based on interdependence theory (Kelley & Thibaut, 1978; Thibaut & Kelley, 1959) is presented here and used to explain the causes of interunit conflict and the effective- ness of coordination strategy. Hypotheses are presented, and future research is proposed.
Innovation Diffusion Models With Stochastic Parameters : Forecasting And Planning Implications, Jehoshua Eliashberg, Charles S. Tapiero, Yoram Wind
Innovation Diffusion Models With Stochastic Parameters : Forecasting And Planning Implications, Jehoshua Eliashberg, Charles S. Tapiero, Yoram Wind
Research Reports from the Department of Operations
This paper explores the forecasting and advertising planning implications of an innovation diffusion model with stochastic parameters. Comparisons are made between the stochastic model and its deterministic version. It is shown that the stochastic formulation may sometimes yield forecasted penetration curves which can be approximated quite well by a deterministic model. This, however, is not always true. In planning an advertising policy over some time horizon, it is shown how the nature of the advertising policy depends on the stochastic characteristics of the diffusion process as well as the firm's attitude toward risk.

On Countertrading: An Update And A Classification Of The Barter Trade System, Arnold Reisman, Duu-Cheng Fuh, Gang Li
On Countertrading: An Update And A Classification Of The Barter Trade System, Arnold Reisman, Duu-Cheng Fuh, Gang Li
Research Reports from the Department of Operations
Countertrade comprises about one third of world trade and is gaining in popularity. Because of its many advantages for traders irrespective of their home country's level of economic development as summarized in [Reisman, Fuh and Li 1987] it will involve half of the world trade by year 2000 [Cooper 1984]. With an understanding of countertrade formats, advantages and disadvantages, we can more knowledgably pursue this type of trade with efficiency and effectiveness. This paper presented several taxonomical structures for countertrade aimed at providing a complete picture and hence a better understanding of countertrade potentialities.

Product Failures, Manufacturing Reliability And Quality Control : A Dynamic Framework, Charles S. Tapiero, Arnold Reisman, Peter H. Ritchken
Research Reports from the Department of Operations
The purpose of this paper is to outline a dynamic (time related) approach to quality control when manufacturing product reliability and post sales product failure costs are considered explicitly in the economic design of quality control samples. A specific curtailed sampling technique is used and optimal samples determined. The optimal quality control sampling plan is calculated analytically by the solution of a stochastic dynamic programming problem. In addition, several numerical examples are resolved. The essential contributions of the paper are two-fold; first in integrating economic considerations related to manufacturing reliability, product reputation and post-sales marketing costs. Second, in outlining a …
Countertrade With China: Some Contributions Of Management Science Research, Arnold Reisman, Duu-Cheng Fuh, Gang Li
Countertrade With China: Some Contributions Of Management Science Research, Arnold Reisman, Duu-Cheng Fuh, Gang Li
Research Reports from the Department of Operations
Countertrade is a modern version of barter trading. In the People's Republic of China (PRC), the Compensation Trade Bureau of the State Import and Export Commission (SIEC) has stated that countertrade is "indispensable" as a tool of economic planning. Although it is the oldest form of commerce, countertrading research appears to be virgin territory in the literature of Management Science. This paper identifies PRC's need for countertrade in the current stage of its economic development. It classifies countertrade according to some basic factors and represents the different types of countertrade by mathematical equations. Lastly the paper analyses several pricing strategies …

A Group Technology Approach To The Bearing Selection Problem, Stephen Robert Strong
A Group Technology Approach To The Bearing Selection Problem, Stephen Robert Strong
Research Reports from the Department of Operations
We developed in this thesis a decision support system to select the optimal rolling element bearings, hereafter referred to as the Bearing Selection Engine (BSE). The BSE considers both aspects of the specification problem: type specification and part number selection. Bearing type specification is often done by designers who, through experience or tradition, have developed a set of rules on which to base their decisions. Part number selection is the most time-consuming stage of bearing specification, but also the most mathematical. This NP-complete problem involves the search for currently manufactured sets of bearing part numbers that will meet all of …

Quality Control Of The M/G/1 Queue, Lie-Fern Hsu, Charles S. Tapiero
Research Reports from the Department of Operations
This paper addresses the integration of quality control techniques into M/G/i queue models, extending prior analyses of M/M/i queue and transfer line systems. The study investigates quality control in automated manufacturing environments, with a focus on flexible and job-shop systems. Two approaches to quality control are analyzed: open-loop sampling techniques, based on Dodge-continuous sampling plans, and closed-loop techniques, where inspection is dynamically adjusted based on queue performance metrics such as queue length. The paper employs a renewal-reward framework to optimize quality control parameters, balancing efficiency and accuracy in defect detection. Key findings offer insights into the interaction between queue dynamics …
Premium Valuation In International Insurance, Laurent L. Jacque, Charles S. Tapiero
Premium Valuation In International Insurance, Laurent L. Jacque, Charles S. Tapiero
Research Reports from the Department of Operations
This article develops a premium valuation formula for international insurance and reinsurance contracts. Specifically, the expected utility equivalence framework is reformulated in a dynamic mode to account for the stochastic nature of exchange rates movements which allows for the joint factoring of insurance and exchange risk into the premium valuation process. Assuming a Compound Poisson Claim Process and lognormally distributed exchange rates actuarially fair premia are derived for international insurance, proportional and excess loss reinsurance contracts.
Some Thoughts For Model Builders In The Management And Social Sciences, Arnold Reisman
Some Thoughts For Model Builders In The Management And Social Sciences, Arnold Reisman
Research Reports from the Department of Operations
The development of specialized models in management science, industrial engineering, operations research, and econometrics, begun out of necessity, is degenerating into a habit. The literature is replete with models that fit a specific type problem like a glove but are useless for problems that differ in type. All these works need synthesis. Model builders should generalize upon previous works to integrate, systematize, or categorize the specialized models within their fields.
