A Two-Stage Method to Determine Optimal Product Sampling considering Dynamic Potential Market
The Scientific World Journal, 2015 This paper develops an optimization model for the diffusion effects of free samples under dynamic changes in potential market based on the characteristics of independent product and presents a two-stage method to figure out the sampling level. The impact

The Quarterly Journal of Economics, 2014 Abstract We develop a theory of endogenous uncertainty and business cycles in which short-lived shocks can generate long-lasting recessions. In the model, higher uncertainty about fundamentals discourages investment. Since agents learn from the actions of others, information flows slowly in times of low activity and uncertainty remains ...

A Survey of Methods for Gas-Lift Optimization
Modelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2012 This paper presents a survey of methods and techniques developed for the solution of the continuous gas-lift optimization problem over the last two decades. These range from isolated single-well analysis all the way to real-time multivariate optimization

A Class of Two-Person Zero-Sum Matrix Games with Rough Payoffs
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2010 We concentrate on discussing a class of two-person zero-sum games with rough payoffs. Based on the expected value operator and the trust measure of rough variables, the expected equilibrium strategy and r-trust maximin equilibrium strategy are defined ...
