(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Autonomous vehicles often operate in environments with imperfect information. This thesis addresses the case of a system of autonomous vehicles and sensors attempting to intercept a moving object of interest that arrives ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)In the context of a world flooded with data, the Internet of Things (IoT) is exploding. This thesis considers the problem of applying IoT technology to the reduction of costs in the iron ore mining industry, to compensate ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Most of the logistics systems involve a multi-level distribution system structure due to value added by a multi-level configuration. Interactions of these levels, i.e. echelons, should be considered while making strategic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)A large online retailer strategically stocks inventory for SKUs with low demand. The motivations are to provide a wide range of selections and faster customer fulfillment service. We assume the online retailer has the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)We consider the joint pricing and inventory decision problem for a single retailer who orders, stocks and sells multiple products. The products are competitive in nature, e.g., these maybe similar products from multiple ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)With recent advances in research and technology, autonomous surface vessel capabilities have steadily increased. These autonomous surface vessel technologies enable missions and tasks to be performed without the direction ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)There is a great need among educators for a way to quickly assign teams in large or distance learning classrooms in a manner superior to random assignment or student self-selection. Forming teams based on knowledge of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In this thesis we study modifications of the classical Mean-Variance Portfolio Optimization model. Our objective is to identify an optimal subset of assets from all available assets to maximize the expected return while ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)In the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) area, the production of numerical solid waste (MI\SW) increased by 32% between 1990 and 2011, exceeding 660 million tonnes in 2011; the world-wide ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Increases in car ownership and usage have resulted in serious traffic congestion problems in many large cities worldwide. Innovative travel modes and services can play an important role in improving the efficiency and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)With the globalization of culture and economic trade, it is increasingly important not only to detect outbreaks of infectious disease early, but also to anticipate the social response to the disease. In this thesis, we use ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)Organizations perform work essentially through operations and projects. The characteristics of projects makes them extremely difficult to manage: their non repetitive nature discards the trial and error learning, while ...
