In this paper we investigate the problem of simultaneously allocating orders and mobile storage racks to static pickers. Here storage racks are allocated to pickers to enable them to pick all of the products for the orders that have been…
In business process landscapes, a common challenge is to provide the necessary computational resources to enact the single process steps. One well-known approach to solve this issue in a cost-efficient way is to use the notion of…
Optimal transport is a framework that facilitates the most efficient allocation of a limited amount of resources. However, the most efficient allocation scheme does not necessarily preserve the most fairness. In this paper, we establish a…
This paper considers the problem of fault detection and localization in active distribution networks using PMUs. The proposed algorithm consists in computing a set of weighted least squares state estimates whose results are used to detect,…
We study a general online combinatorial auction problem in algorithmic mechanism design. A provider allocates multiple types of capacity-limited resources to customers that arrive in a sequential and arbitrary manner. Each customer has a…
The newsvendor problem is one of the most basic and widely applied inventory models. There are numerous extensions of this problem. If the probability distribution of the demand is known, the problem can be solved analytically. However,…
We consider the problem of coordinating a fleet of robots in a warehouse so as to maximize the reward achieved within a time limit while respecting problem and robot specific constraints. We formulate the problem as a weighted set packing…
Warehouse optimization stands as a critical component for enhancing operational efficiency within the industrial sector. By strategically streamlining warehouse operations, organizations can achieve significant reductions in logistical…
Conventionally, the resource allocation is formulated as an optimization problem and solved online with instantaneous scenario information. Since most resource allocation problems are not convex, the optimal solutions are very difficult to…
Maritime inventory routing optimization is an important yet challenging combinatorial optimization problem. We propose a machine learning-based local search approach for finding feasible solutions of large-scale maritime inventory routing…
For Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks, it is essential to reliably sense and deliver the environmental data on time to avoid system malfunction. While energy harvesting is a promising technique to extend the lifetime of sensor nodes, it…
Resource allocation problems in many computer systems can be formulated as mathematical optimization problems. However, finding exact solutions to these problems using off-the-shelf solvers is often intractable for large problem sizes with…
We describe a supply chain optimization model deployed in an online fashion e-commerce company in India called Myntra. Our model is simple, elegant and easy to put into service. The model utilizes historic data and predicts the quantity of…
In many applications such as rationing medical care and supplies, university admissions, and the assignment of public housing, the decision of who receives an allocation can be justified by various normative criteria. Such settings have…
Online marketplaces increasingly do more than simply match buyers and sellers: they route orders across competing sellers and, in many categories, offer ancillary fulfillment services that make seller inventory a source of platform revenue.…
In this paper, we explore the challenge of assortment planning in the context of quick-commerce, a rapidly-growing business model that aims to deliver time-sensitive products. In order to achieve quick delivery to satisfy the immediate…
A central problem in business concerns the optimal allocation of limited resources to a set of available tasks, where the payoff of these tasks is inherently uncertain. In credit card fraud detection, for instance, a bank can only assign a…
This paper is the fruit of a partnership with Renault. Their backward logistic requires solving a continent-scale multi-attribute inventory routing problem (IRP). With an average of 30 commodities, 16 depots, and 600 customers spread across…
This work proposes an energy-efficient resource provisioning and allocation framework to meet the dynamic demands of future applications. The frequent variations in a cloud user's resource demand lead 'to the problem of excess power…
We consider the problem of assigning or allocating resources to a set of jobs. We consider the case when the resources are fungible, that is, the job can be done with any mix of the resources, but with different efficiencies. In our…
