Distributed resource allocation is a central task in network systems such as smart grids, water distribution networks, and urban transportation systems. When solving such problems in practice it is often important to have nonasymptotic…

In edge intelligence systems, deep neural network (DNN) partitioning and data offloading can provide real-time task inference for resource-constrained mobile devices. However, the inference time of DNNs is typically uncertain and cannot be…

Assortment optimization is a fundamental challenge in modern retail and recommendation systems, where the goal is to select a subset of products that maximizes expected revenue under complex customer choice behaviors. While recent advances…

Network cache allocation and management are important aspects of the design of an Information-Centric Network (ICN), such as one based on Named Data Networking (NDN). We address the problem of optimal cache size allocation and content…

Modern cloud data warehouses store data in micro-partitions and rely on metadata (e.g., zonemaps) for efficient data pruning during query processing. Maintaining data clustering in a large-scale table is crucial for effective data pruning.…

Small-to-medium size enterprises (SMEs), including many startup firms, need to manage interrelated flows of cash and inventories of goods. In this paper, we model a firm that can finance its inventory (ordered or manufactured) with loans in…

Energy harvesting offers an attractive and promising mechanism to power low-energy devices. However, it alone is insufficient to enable an energy-neutral operation, which can eliminate tedious battery charging and replacement requirements.…

Having the right assortment of shipping boxes in the fulfillment warehouse to pack and ship customer's online orders is an indispensable and integral part of nowadays eCommerce business, as it will not only help maintain a profitable…

A retailer is purchasing goods in bundles from suppliers and then selling these goods in bundles to customers; her goal is to maximize profit, which is the revenue obtained from selling goods minus the cost of purchasing those goods. In…

This research presents the development of a new simulation model to determine the optimal order lot sizes in Material Requirements Planning, based on purchase volume and the temporal deterioration of items. The scientific novelty lies in…

In recent years, the throughput requirements of e-commerce fulfillment warehouses have seen a steep increase. This has resulted in various automation solutions being developed for item picking and movement. In this paper, we address the…

In warehousing systems, to enhance logistical efficiency amid surging demand volumes, much focus is placed on how to reasonably allocate tasks to robots. However, the robots labor is still inevitably wasted to some extent. In response to…

The Bin Packing Problem involves efficiently packing items into a limited number of bins without exceeding their capacity. In this paper, we try to answer a specific question in this field. Mathematically the combinatorial optimization…

Allocation of scarce healthcare resources under limited logistic and infrastructural facilities is a major issue in the modern society. We consider the problem of allocation of healthcare resources like vaccines to people or hospital beds…

Configuring a storage system to better serve an application is a challenging task complicated by a multidimensional, discrete configuration space and the high cost of space exploration (e.g., by running the application with different…

The growing need for companies to reduce costs and maximize profits has led to an increased focus on logistics activities. Among these, inventory management plays a crucial role in minimizing organizational expenses by optimizing the…

In this work, we investigate the problem of order batching and picker routing in warehouse storage areas. These problems are known to be capital and labour intensive, and often contribute to a sizable fraction of warehouse operating costs.…

In this paper we investigate the problem of order batching for picker routing. Our approach is applicable to warehouses (storage areas) arranged in the standard rectangular grid layout, so with parallel aisles and two or more cross-aisles.…

We consider a processor sharing storage allocation model, which has m primary holding spaces and infinitely many secondary ones, and a single processor servicing the stored items (customers). All of the spaces are numbered and ordered. An…

In this focused technical paper, we present long-awaited algorithmic advances toward the efficient construction of near-optimal replenishment policies for a true inventory management classic, the economic warehouse lot scheduling problem.…
