Implementing Supply Routing Optimization in a Make-To-Order Manufacturing Network
, 2008
"... Dell’s supply chain for desktops involves Asian vendors shipping components by sea to several U.S. plants. While suppliers are responsible for shipping enough inventory, Dell can re-route and expedite their shipments while in transit and also transfer on-hand inventory in order to balance supply acr ..."

This paper describes the development, implementation and impact of the process and optimization-based control system now used by Dell to address this supply routing challenge for its US-bound monitors. This new methodology is estimated to have reduced Dell’s inventory re-positioning costs

Static and Dynamic Pricing Of Excess Capacity in a Make-To-Order Environment
"... Recent years have seen advances in research and management practice in the area of pricing, and particularly in dynamic pricing and revenue management. At the same time, researchers and managers have made dramatic improvements in production and supply chain management. The interactions between prici ..."

? This paper addresses these questions by examining a make-to-order manufacturer that serves two customer classes – core customers who pay a fixed negotiated price and are guaranteed job acceptance, and “fill-in ” customers who make job submittal decisions based on the instantaneous price set by the firm
Number:007-0357 Production Allocation Problem with Penalty by Tardiness of Delivery under Make-to-Order Environment
"... We consider a Make-to-Order manufacturing system which can be formulated as an open queueing network composed of some GI/G/1 queueing systems. In Make-to-Order manufacturing systems, it is important to fulfill customer’s requests quickly. Therefore, it has been frequently investigated how to shorten ..."

Probable networks and plausible predictions - - a review of practical Bayesian methods for supervised neural networks
, 1995
"... Bayesian probabilily theory provides a unifying framework for dara modelling. In this framework the overall aims are to find models that are well-matched to, the &a, and to use &se models to make optimal predictions. Neural network laming is interpreted as an inference of the most probable ..."

Simple Efficient Load Balancing algorithms for Peer-to-Peer Systems
- SPAA'04
, 2004
"... Load balancing is a critical issue for the efficient operation of peer-to-peer networks. We give two new load-balancing protocols whose provable performance guarantees are within a constant factor of optimal. Our protocols refine the consistent hashing data structure that underlies the Chord (and Ko ..."

Controller area network (can) schedulability analysis: Refuted, revisited and revised
- REAL-TIME SYSTEMS
, 2007
"... Controller Area Network (CAN) is used extensively in automotive applications, with in excess of 400 million CAN enabled microcontrollers manufactured each year. In 1994 schedulability analysis was developed for CAN, showing how worst-case response times of CAN messages could be calculated and hence ..."

This paper shows that the original schedulability analysis given for CAN messages is flawed. It may provide guarantees for messages that will in fact miss their deadlines
Modeling and Optimization of Inventory-Distribution Routing Problem for Agriculture Products Supply Chain
