Supplier Performance and Order Allocation
Journal of the Operational Research Society, 1979A supplier's overall performance can be gauged by his unit price and adherence to quality standards and delivery schedules. The cost of substandard quality and non-adherence to delivery schedule is computed and added to the cost of purchase. A set of order quantity and supplier combination is chosen dynamically and the total cost computed to determine ...

An Ordered Response Model for Allocation and Earnings
Kyklos, 1988An ordered-response model for the allocation of individuals to jobs differing in degree of difficulty and complexity is estimated. Earnings differentials are estimated with an earnings fun ction exhibiting interaction between job level and individual charact eristics.

Order‐preserving allocation of jobs to two machines
Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1974AbstractIn this paper, we consider the problem of minimizing the mean flow time of jobs to be processed on two machines. The jobs have a predetermined order, perhaps reflecting the order of arrival, and each job has a known processing time. We wish to assign the jobs to machines so as to minimize the mean flow time, with the constraint that the ...

Order Allocation for Stock Cutting in the Paper Industry
Operations Research, 2002A common problem encountered in paper-production facilities is that of allocating customer orders to machines so as to minimize the total cost of production. It can be formulated as a dual-angular integer program, with identical machines inducing symmetry.

A hybrid intelligent model for order allocation planning in make-to-order manufacturing
Applied Soft Computing, 2013This paper investigated a multi-objective order allocation planning problem in make-to-order manufacturing with the consideration of various real-world production features. A novel hybrid intelligent optimization model, integrating a multi-objective memetic optimization (MOMO) process, a Monte Carlo simulation technique and a heuristic pruning ...

Symmetry and order in the portfolio allocation problem [PDF]
Economic Theory, 2002 In a single period model of a securities market with a finite number of assets, the classical portfolio allocation problem can be described as the problem of choosing the best portfolio for maximizing the expected utility of terminal wealth. If the asset returns are independently distributed and ordered (either in the likelihood ratio order or the ...

Wafer-to-Order Allocation in Semiconductor Back-End Production
2019 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC), 2019This paper discusses the development of an efficient algorithm that minimizes overproduction in the allocation of wafers to customer orders prior to assembly at a semiconductor production facility. This study is motivated by and tested at Nexperia’s assembly and test facilities, but its potential applications extend to many manufacturers in the ...

One-Dimensional Space Allocation: An Ordering Algorithm
Operations Research, 1969The space-allocation problem arises when an architect tries to arrange rooms of fixed area but unspecified shape on a floor plan in such a way as to minimize a given linear combination of the distances between all pairs of rooms. In one dimension, this is the problem of ordering line segments along a simple axis or rooms along one side of a corridor ...

Efficient allocation of online grocery orders
International Journal of Productivity and Quality Management, 2006Despite some initial setbacks, the online grocery business is viable and growing. In this paper, we discuss the industry's value proposition, its business models, the various quality issues faced by an e-grocer and the trade-offs faced in the selection of a highly efficient fulfilment strategy.
