Pareto Optimality in the work of Pareto [PDF]
Revue européenne des sciences sociales, 2013 This paper reconstructs, in non-formal terms, the development of Vilfredo Pareto’s writings on what was to become known as “Pareto optimality”. Notably, I rebuild the various versions preceeding the final definition of paretian optimum in economics and I give a few comments on its sociological adaptation.

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study advances the literature on sustainable urban agriculture and alternative sustainable food production systems, which have gained momentum due to the need to strengthen regional food supply chains and meet the growing urban demand for fresh food. Indoor agriculture (IA) holds promise for year‐round cultivation of fresh produce even in

The computational complexity of rationalizing Pareto optimal choice behavior. [PDF]
We consider a setting where a coalition of individuals chooses one or several alternatives from each set in a collection of choice sets. We examine the computational complexity of Pareto rationalizability.

Pareto meets Olson: A note on Pareto-optimality and group size in linear public goods games [PDF]
In this paper I examine the relationship between Pareto-optimality and group size in linear public goods games or experiments. In particular, I use the standard setting of homogeneous linear public goods experiments and apply a recently developed tool to

A multiobjective optimization approach to statistical mechanics [PDF]
, 2015 Optimization problems have been the subject of statistical physics approximations. A specially relevant and general scenario is provided by optimization methods considering tradeoffs between cost and efficiency, where optimal solutions involve a ...

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Flexibility is a crucial characteristic of industrial systems that face increasing volatilities and is therefore essential to ensure feasible operation under uncertainty. Flexibility is often closely tied to the design of a system, and careful consideration must be taken to understand the trade‐off between design cost and operational ...

Workload Equity in Vehicle Routing Problems: A Survey and Analysis
, 2018 Over the past two decades, equity aspects have been considered in a growing number of models and methods for vehicle routing problems (VRPs). Equity concerns most often relate to fairly allocating workloads and to balancing the utilization of resources ...
