Dynamic priority rules for cyclic queues with limited service regime
A cyclic service system with two stations operating under limited service regime has been analyzed, assuming poisson arrivals and exponential service at each service station. Zero switch-over times have been assumed. A thorough simulation study has been conducted, and guidelines have been obtained …

The Saudi Movement Toward a Modern Secured Lending Law: A Critical Comparative Analysis with Article 9 of the U.S. Uniform Commercial Code and a Proposal for Further Modernization
… the Saudi modern registry system and its priority rules under the Saudi new system of 2018. The conclusion of this project suggests that despite the noticeable progress in modernizing secured lending in Saudi Arabia, the new system needs to further regulate its priority rules by having …

The effect of estimated processing times versus actual (standard) processing times on various performance measures in a pure job shop
… relative system performance. In addition, three priority rules, namely, FIFO, SOT and EDD, were studied to determine the best rule for controlling the shop in situations of unreliable processing times data. The percentage variation in processing times was clearly the dominant variable for most of …

Empirical essays on dynamic allocation mechanisms
… apartments using a wide range of choice and priority rules. I evaluate how these allocation mechanisms affect the efficiency and redistribution achieved through assignments. Using waiting list data from Cambridge, MA, I estimate a structural model of public housing preferences, finding …

Scheduling inbound calls in call centers
… most call center this is achieved using simple priority rules, but in this dissertation we show that performance can be significantly improved by employing an optimization approach. Specifically, we formulate three different Integer Programming (IP) problems for such call scheduling, with …

Hybrid artificial bee colony algorithm with branch and bound for two–sided assembly line balancing
… spreadsheet model which is equipped with random priority rules in order to get multi-solution of ABC approach for balancing two-sided assembly line. The feasible number of workstations was determined with the minimum idle time of every mated station and maintains the minimum one in each cycle. …

Order Execution Quality in Equity Options Markets
… execution quality. In Part 2, we examine if the priority rules, such as price-time or pro-rata, which govern the order matching process on an exchange, affect limit order quality and transaction outcomes. Our multivariate tests show that the probability of execution is higher in the price-time …

Optimizing resource allocation in a portfolio of projects related to technology infusion using heuristic and meta-heuristic methods
… a heuristic method is proposed based on priority rules. However, as the assumptions of the model are loosened a novel method is suggested that combines Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Artificial Bee Colony (ABC). Numerical results indicate that the hybrid meta-heuristic method based on GA-ABC …

Meta-raps: Parameter Setting And New Applications
… methods guide simple heuristics or priority rules designed to solve a particular problem. Meta-heuristics enhance these simple heuristics by using a higher level strategy. The advantage of using meta-heuristics over conventional optimization methods is meta-heuristics are able to …
