Evaluation Of Shortage Costs - Part Ii: Loss Of Goodwill - Application Of Semi-Markov Processes, Muhittin Oral, S. Subba Rao May 1972

Evaluation Of Shortage Costs - Part Ii: Loss Of Goodwill - Application Of Semi-Markov Processes, Muhittin Oral, S. Subba Rao

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

In a previous report (Technical Memoranda No. 248) we formulated the problem of evaluating inventory shortage costs from a new perspective. In a single cycle which consisted of a no-stock out and a stock-out period, we identified and evaluated immediate shortage costs using results from queuing theory. A second part of the shortage costs is due to loss of customer goodwill and this has to be considered over a number of cycles. In the present report, we propose a method of evaluating the loss of customer goodwill. We show that the (Q,S,R) policy gives rise to a (R+S+2) - state …

Analysis Of The Reserve Book System At The Health Center Library, Keki R. Dadachanji, Phiroz P. Darukhanavala, Shailesh J. Mehta, Pradip H. Shroff May 1972

Analysis Of The Reserve Book System At The Health Center Library, Keki R. Dadachanji, Phiroz P. Darukhanavala, Shailesh J. Mehta, Pradip H. Shroff

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

This study examines the Reserve Book System at the Health Center Library, part of the Cleveland Health Sciences Library. Initiated by a survey highlighting congestion at the Circulation desk, the study evaluates the current Reserve book policy and proposes improvements. Using Operations Research techniques, including the DELPHI method and computer simulation, the team developed a Scoring Model to assess alternative policies. Key recommendations include optimizing the number of reserve copies, reducing the number of books on reserve, and maintaining a single server at the Circulation desk. The study emphasizes the practical application of these models for future policy evaluation and …

Testing A Planning And Control Model In Nonprofit Organizations, Charles A. Reimnitz Mar 1972

Testing A Planning And Control Model In Nonprofit Organizations, Charles A. Reimnitz

Department of Management: Faculty Publications

This study utilizes a planning and control model abstracted from the conceptual framework of general management knowledge to test the relative efficiency of administrators in three educational service organizations. The hypothesis that subordinates' perceptions of administrators' relative proficiency will be a function of the administrators' education, training, experience, and conscious use of management techniques appears to be substantiated.

Analysis And Forecasting Of Anesthesia Manpower In Cuyahoga County, Ohio, J. S. Gravenstein, Augustine O. Esogbue, Arnold Reisman, Burton V. Dean, Vijaykumar V. Aggarwal, Vasant B. Kaujalgi, Peter M. Lewy Mar 1972

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

This report discusses the major aspects of a recent study which was concerned with the supply and demand projections for anesthesia manpower in Cuyahoga County in Ohio for a ten year planning horizon (1970-1980); the identification of the constraints which contribute to the gap between current and 'ideal' manpower levels of anesthesiology; the development of an approach to the recruitment and training of anesthesiology manpower and the generation of information which would be useful in developing approaches to the improvement of anesthesia manpower utilization. The latter aspect of the study extends a previous effort by the authors which employed an …

Binding Inequalities In Benders' Partitioning Algorithm, Harvey M. Salkin Feb 1972

Binding Inequalities In Benders' Partitioning Algorithm, Harvey M. Salkin

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

The mixed integer program is transformed to its equivalent integer program which has a vast number of "z inequality" constraints. A brief description of Benders' partitioning algorithm for the mixed integer program, which is suggested by the transformation, is then given. It is shown that unless a bounding constraint is explicitly introduced, a z inequality (hyperplane) that does not intersect an optimal solution to the integer program which appears in the algorithm cannot be dropped. Furthermore, if the bounding constraint is used in place of keeping not binding inequalities, the algorithm may converge at a slower rate. A small plant …

On The Linear Complementarity Problem, Arza K. Rao Jan 1972

On The Linear Complementarity Problem, Arza K. Rao

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

Consider the linear complementarity problem given by system (1): w = Mx + q (1) w ≥ 0, x ≥ 0 (2) } (I) x'w = 0 (3) where w, x and q are vectors of dimension n and M is a matrix of order n x n. Any (x,w) satisfying conditions (1) and (2) is a feasible solution to system (1). Any (x,w) satisfying (1), (2) and (3) is a complementary feasible solution to system (1). The main results derived in this work are given below. 1) Let MZ - class (i.e. off diagonal elements non-positive). Then Lemke's algorithm …
