We develop a model of budget allocation for permanent and contingent workforce under stochastic demand. The level of permanent capacity is determined at the beginning of the horizon and is kept constant throughout, whereas the number of temporary workers to be hired must be decided in each...

This paper is devoted to a new approach of differential games with state constraints. We explain a new method, general enough to study discontinuous problems but efficient enough to provide numerical schemes. We present this method in a game of kind: the target problem and in a game of degree:...

Our incentive is to assess the impact of demand forecast errors on the cost performance of several lot-sizing techniques in a multi-level context. Unpredicted changes in demand keep on plaguing consumer product companies. However, efforts to improve demand forecast accuracy may not be rewarded...

Audit decision in risk situations was studied by researchers using normative and descriptive approaches issued from mathematics and economic sciences. We explain the impact of psycholgy resarch conduced by Kahneman and Tversky on the approach of auditors judgment.
