Tackling car-sharing service design problems at scale with high-resolution data : discrete simulation-based optimization approaches
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)This thesis considers the design of two-way (i.e., round-trip) car-sharing services. The optimization problems are formulated as high-dimensional discrete simulation-based optimization (DSO) problems. Existing DSO algorithms ... -
Taiwan's industrial structural change and its implication on energy intensity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)The objective of this thesis is to analyze how the shift in industrial mix had contributed to the energy intensity in Taiwan. The concern for energy intensity is mainly because it is directly related to Carbon Dioxide (CO2) ... -
Tantalum wire product development strategy : gaining a competitive advantage in a commodity market
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)In the face of growing competition and the commoditization in the Tantalum Wire business, H.C. Starck must find a way to differentiate their wire products from competitors in order to survive in this market. This thesis ... -
Tarmac delay policies : a passenger-centric analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)In this work, we analyze the effectiveness of the 2010 Tarmac Delay Rule from a passenger-centric point of view. The Tarmac Delay Rule aims to protect enplaned passengers on commercial aircraft from excessively long delays ... -
