We work with a multi-period system where a finite number of agents need to share multiple monetary risks.
Accordingly, Hammami et al. (2014) suggested a stochastic model for supplier selection aiming at optimization of multi-period system's total cost with diverse buyers and quantity discount.
Considering a multi-period system and planning of the prices of the product as a dynamic pricing may be a scope for future research.
The weight (w^{l}) represents contribution of the observed cost of period l (that is the total cost of exogenous inputs consumed by all processes of subsystem l) to the observed cost of all periods (total cost of the multi-period system).
This comprehensive model includes dynamic system reconfiguration, multi period production planning, operation sequence, alternative process plans for part types, machine and worker flexibility, duplicate machines, machine capacity, available time of workers and worker assignment.
This paper proposes a super-efficiency model for measuring aggregative efficiency of multi-period production systems.
The proposed model does not require any information on price data or preferential weighings of inputs and outputs over multiple periods and able to measure aggregative efficiency of multi-period production systems.
A physical aquifer experiment is utilized to develop a severely challenging multi-period observation system simulation experiment (OSSE) that reflects the challenges and decisions faced in monitoring contaminated groundwater systems.
"Relationship between the global cost efficiencies of multi-period network system and its subsystems" and "Relationship between the multi-period global cost efficiencies of network system and its processes" sections compute the global cost efficiencies of the subsystems and processes and represent the relationships between these efficiencies and the efficiency of network system.
Kia et al. (2011) presented a mathematical model for a multi-period CM system layout with fuzzy parameters.
