In part I of this paper, we proposed a Mixed-Integer Linear Program (MILP) to analyze imperfect competition of oligopoly producers in two-stage zonal power markets. In part II of this paper, we propose a solution algorithm which decomposes the proposed MILP model into several subproblems and...

We consider the optimal strategy of R&D expenditure adopted by a firm that engages in R&D to develop an innovative product to be launched in the market. The firm faces with technological uncertainty associated with the success of the R&D effort and market uncertainty of the stochastic revenue...

The current paper defines the optimal sequential information gathering structure of a rational utility maximizer decision maker in the simplest non-trivial theoretical scenario, where the decision maker is allowed to acquire only two pieces of information from a set of multidimensional goods. We...

We propose a new, highly effective and easy-to-implement algorithm for solving large-scale mean-variance optimization problems --- with weight upper bound constraints and without short sales --- when the size of mean-variance portfolios is much smaller than the number of assets, which is almost...
