A Field Survey On Residential Crowding
An attempt was made to clarify the conditions under which humans feel crowded. Four broad types of variables were postulated: physical space, social interaction, duration of exposure, and subject variability.A field survey was taken among…
French Mutual Fund Performance: Evaluation Of Internationally-diversified Portfolios
Abstract not available.
A Generalized Approach To Dantzig-Wolfe Decomposition For Concave Programs
The Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition procedure for concave programs can be viewed as inner linearization followed by restriction. In this paper an approach which allows selective inner linearization of functions and utilizes a generalized pricing…
Inflation and the Redistribution of Wealth

Interfunctional Production Planning for New Product Introduction
Abstract not available.
Job Shop Scheduling With Due Dates And Variable Processing Times
A multi-pass heuristic scheduling procedure developed for job shop scheduling problems with deterministic processing times is tested with processing times that are random variables. The heuristic procedure, which uses expected processing times,…
Job Shop Scheduling with Due Dates and Overtime Capability
A scheduling procedure is proposed for the static job shop problem with job due dates and a shop with overtime capability. An example is used to demonstrate the procedure and the generation of trade-off curves relating overtime and tota tardiness…
Leverage and the Valuation of Risk Assets: An Empirical Test

A Linear Programming Approach to Scheduling Nuclear Isotope Production
This paper reports on the design, implementation and use of a model for scheduling the production of nuclear isotopes. The model is formulated as a multiple-period linear programming problem with several classes of product demand, inventory and…

A Mathematical Programming Approach to Identification and Optimization of a Class of Unknown Systems
There exists a class of decision problems for which: (1) models of input-output response functions are not available in a closed-form, functional representation; (2) informational costs associated with learning about the response function are…
A Method Of Software Evaluation: The Case Of Programming Language Translators
This paper presents a method for the specification and evaluation of software modules. The proposed strategy involves the use of existing documentation and synthetic or benchmark programs to evaluate a set of key characteristics that represent…

On Finite Stage Decision Processes
We develop finite stage decision processes in the notation of Denardo [3] and provide conditions sufficient to prove that (i) n-stage returns exist (are unique) and are “subfinite”, (ii) optimal returns exist and are finite, (iii) Bellman’s [I]…
On Infinite Stage Decision Processes
This paper extends the author’s [8] work on decision process, developed in the notation of Denardo [5], from the finite state (nonstationary) case to the infinite stage (nonstationary) case. The paper focuses on “structured” policies and…
Optimal Advertising Budgeting for Market Share Models
This paper develops rules for setting advertising budgets when long term effects of advertising and competitive promotional spending are considered in a market share model. In both deterministic and probabilistic cases, the firm’s optimal…
