Recent studies have extensively discussed the integration of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) in existing energy systems to achieve net-zero emissions. India recently initiated a carbon dioxide-based enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR) project in the matured oil wells of western...

Hub-and-spoke systems have wide applications ranging in airline transportation, freight transportation, urban traffic, postal delivery, telecommunications and distribution in supply chains. These systems are usually characterized by stochastic demand and congestion, which adversely affect the...

The advent of Just-in-Time (JIT) and Group Technology philosophies has popularized U- shaped assembly lines, which help overcome many of the disadvantages, like line inflexibility, job monotony, large inventories, etc., typically associated with straight assembly lines. Al- though U-shaped...

The bandwidth packing problem seeks to select and route a set of calls from a given list, each with a pre-specified requirement for bandwidth, on an undirected communication network such that the revenue generated is maximized. In this paper, we present a model and an exact solution approach for...

We consider a class of location-allocation problems with immobile servers, stochastic demand and congestion that arises in several planning contexts: location of emergency medical clinics; preventive healthcare centers; refuse collection and disposal centers; stores and service centers; bank...
