Performance Approximation and Design of Pick-and-Pass Order Picking Systems

Yu, Yu, M.; de Koster, de Koster, M.B.M. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), … - 2007

In this paper, we discuss an approximation method based on G/G/m queuing network modeling using Whitt’s (1983) queuing network analyzer to analyze pick-and-pass order picking systems. The objective of this approximation method is to provide an instrument for obtaining rapid performance...

An Evolutionary Framework for Determining Heterogeneous Strategies in Multi-Agent Marketplaces

Babanov, Babanov, A.; Ketter, Ketter, W.; Gini, Gini, M. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), … - 2008

We propose an evolutionary approach for studying the dynamics of interaction of strategic agents that interact in a marketplace. The goal is to learn which agent strategies are most suited by observing the distribution of the agents that survive in the market over extended periods of time. We...

Estimating duration intervals

Franses, Philip Hans; Vroomen, Vroomen, B.L.K. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), … - 2003

Duration intervals measure the dynamic impact of advertising on sales. More precise, the p per cent duration interval measures the time lag between the advertising impulse and the moment that p per cent of its effect has decayed. In this paper, we derive an expression for the duration interval...

The Optimal Prediction Simultaneous Equations Selection

Gorobets, Gorobets, A. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), … - 2004

This paper presents a method for selection of the optimal simultaneous equation system from a set of nested models under the condition of a small sample. The purpose of selection is to identify a model with the best prognostic possibilities. Multivariate AIC, BIC and AICC are used as the...
