    • The Compensation Method Applied to a One-Product Production Inventory Problem 

      Graves, Stephen C.; Keilson, Julian (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Operations Research Center, 1978-07)
      This paper considers a one-product, one-machine production/inventory probelm. Demand requests for the product are governed by a Poisson process with demand size being an exponential random variable. The production facility ...

    • The Travelling Salesman Problem and Related Problems 

      Gavish, Bezalel; Graves, Stephen C. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Operations Research Center, 1978-07)
      New formulations are presented for the Travelling Salesman problem, and their relationship to previous formulations is investigated. The new formulations are extended to include a variety of transportation scheduling ...

    • Scheduling Manufacturing Systems With Work-in-Process Inventory Control: Single-Part-Type Systems 

      Bai, X.; Gershwin, Stanley B. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Operations Research Center, 1990-06)
      In this paper, a real-time feedback control algorithm is developed for scheduling single-part-type production lines in which there are three important classes of activities: operations, failures, and starvation or blockage. ...
