This book deals with dynamic and stochastic methods for multi-project planning. Based on the idea of using queueing networks for the analysis of dynamic-stochastic multi-project environments this book addresses two problems: detailed scheduling of project activities, and integrated order...

Ideale Verbindung aus praktischer Planung und modellgestützter Theorie. Das erfolgreiche Lehrbuch vernetzt alle Teilgebiete modellgestützter Planung aus Entscheidungstheorie, Operation Research, Investitionstheorie und Unternehmensplanung. Quantitative Planung wird dadurch als einheitlicher...

Ongoing global changes bring fundamentally new scientific problems requiring new concepts and tools. A key issue concerns a vast variety of practically irreducible uncertainties, which challenge our traditional models and require new concepts and analytical tools. The uncertainty critically...

Optimization problems arising in practice involve random parameters. For the computation of robust optimal solutions, i.e., optimal solutions being insensitive with respect to random parameter variations, deterministic substitute problems are needed. Based on the distribution of the random data,...
