The rim multiparametric linear programming problem (RMPLP) is a parametric problem with a vector-parameter in both the right-hand side and objective function (i.e., in the "rim"). The RMPLP determines the region K* \subset E* such that the problem, maximize z(\lambda) = c^T(\lambda)x, subject to...

The multiparametric linear programming (MLP) problem for the right-hand sides (RHS) is to maximize z = c^Tx subject to Ax = b(\lambda), x \geqq 0, where b(\lambda) be expressed in the form <disp-formula><tex-math><![CDATA[$$ b(\lambda) = b^\ast + F \lambda, $$]]></tex-math></disp-formula> where F is a matrix of constant coefficients, and \lambda is a vector-parameter. The multiparametric linear...

The inventory problem for continuous time is studied under the following assumptions about the demand process (1) an arbitrary distribution of the length of intervals between successive demands; (2) a distribution of the quantity demanded which is independent of the last quantity demanded and...

This paper examines the contribution of supervisors to an organization's output by constructing a production function in which supervisors' time and case workers' time enter as inputs. There is a quality variable associated with output: average delay. The functional form of the production...

A theoretical model which estimates the probability of injury to occupants of vehicles in two-car collisions is presented and evaluated. This model is based on considerations of principles from mechanics and observations from biomechanics. It is evaluated using two-car accident injury data. The...
