This paper contains a list of all publications over the period 1956-2005, as reported in the Rotterdam Econometric Institute Reprint series during 1957-2005.

The high ranking of the Econometric Institute, as listed in recent leading scientific journals, is examined for a fifty year period using similar standard measures. The distribution of the publications over different research areas is analyzed and a time-series model is specified to describe and...

If a disruption takes place in a complex task-based system, where tasks are carried out by a number of resource units or servers, real-time disruption management usually has to deal with an uncertain duration of the disruption. In this paper we present a novel approach for rescheduling such...

__Abstract__ Providing long distance truck drivers with adequate access to prevention, testing, and treatment services for HIV, Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), Tuberculosis (TB), and Malaria is suggested to be an extremely eective way to reduce the burden and the spread of these...

We study a class of scheduling problems involving the maximum lateness criterion and an element of batching. For all the problems that we examine, algorithms appear in the literature which consist of a sorting step to determine an optimal job sequence, followed by a dynamic programming step...

We consider the Capacitated Economic Lot Size problem with piecewise linear production costs and general holding costs, which is an NP-hard problem but solvable in pseudo-polynomial time. A straightforward dynamic programming approach to this problem results in an [TeX: $O(n^2 \\bar{c} \\bar{d}...

The imperative to improve healthcare efficiency is now stronger than ever. Rapidly increasing healthcare demand and the prospect of healthcare cost exploding require that measures be taken to make healthcare organizations become more efficiency-aware. Alignment of organizational interests is...

__Abstract__ Providing African truck drivers with adequate access to healthcare is an effective way to reduce the burden and the spread of HIV and other infectious diseases. Therefore, NGO North Star Alliance builds a network of healthcare facilities along major African trucking routes. Choosing...

Within the framework of reverse logistics, the classic economic lot-sizing problem has been extended with a remanufacturing option. In this extended problem, known quantities of used products are returned from customers in each period. These returned products can be remanufactured, so that they...

One of the basic assumptions of the classical dynamic lot-sizing model is that the aggregate demand of a given period must be satisfied in that period. Under this assumption, if backlogging is not allowed then the demand of a given period cannot be delivered earlier or later than the period. If...
