When Shortages Lead to Export Restrictions: A Computational Study
Martha L. Sabogal De La Pava, Emily L. Tucker, Yongjia Song
Globalization has enabled companies to leverage cost efficiencies; however, it has increased exposure to disruption risks that threaten supply stability. Among these, export bans h…
An Optimization Approach to Improve Equitable Access to Local Parks
Anisa Young, Emily L. Tucker, Mariela Fernandez +3
Local parks are public resources that promote human and environmental welfare. Unfortunately, park inequities are commonplace as historically marginalized groups may have insuffici…
A Framework for Operations Research Model Use in Resilience to Fundamental Surprise Events: Observations from University Operations during COVID-19
Thomas C. Sharkey, Steven Foster, Sudeep Hegde +2
Operations research (OR) approaches have been increasingly applied to model the resilience of a system to surprise events. In order to model a surprise event, one must have an unde…
Developing Optimization Models with Cognitive Systems Engineering
Tyler C. O'Brien, Emily L. Tucker, Steven Foster +1
One goal of applied operations research is to improve decisions in practice. This requires modelers and stakeholders to have a shared understanding of the system and for the develo…
Surrogate "Level-Based" Lagrangian Relaxation for Mixed-Integer Linear Programming
Mikhail A. Bragin, Emily L. Tucker
Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) plays an important role across a range of scientific disciplines and within areas of strategic importance to society. The MILP problems, how…
Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Reliability and Effects on Drug Shortages
Emily L. Tucker, Mark S. Daskin
Drug shortages occur frequently and are often caused by supply chain disruptions. For improvements to occur, it is necessary to be able to estimate the vulnerability of pharmaceuti…
Stochastic Optimization Models for Location and Inventory Prepositioning of Disaster Relief Supplies
Karmel S. Shehadeh, Emily L. Tucker
We consider the problem of preparing for a disaster season by determining where to open warehouses and how much relief item inventory to preposition in each. Then, after each disas…
