In this paper, we develop a modified maximum likelihood (MML) estimator for the multiple linear regression model with underlying student t distribution. We obtain the closed form of the estimators, derive the asymptotic properties, and demonstrate that the MML estimator is more appropriate for...

This paper studies the allocation of buffer times in a single machine environment. Buffer times are a common tool to protect the schedule against disruptions such as machine failures. We introduce new classes of robust machine scheduling problems. For an arbitrary scheduling problem 1
