This paper focuses on improving equity in a well-known stochastic facility location problem (FLP).
Specifically, given sets of potential facility locations and customers with random …

We consider the outpatient colonoscopy scheduling problem, recognizing the impact of pre-procedure
bowel preparation (prep) quality on the variability in colonoscopy duration. Data …

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 …

The last-mile problem refers to the provision of travel service from the nearest public
transportation node to home or other destination. Last-Mile Transportation Systems (LMTS), which …

We propose two distributionally robust optimization (DRO) models for a mobile facility (MF)
fleet-sizing, routing, and scheduling problem (MFRSP) with time-dependent and random …

In this paper, we study the decision process of assigning elective surgery patients to available
surgical blocks in multiple operating rooms (OR) under random surgery durations, random …

In this paper, we present a new stochastic mixed-integer linear programming model for the
Stochastic Outpatient Procedure Scheduling Problem (SOPSP). In this problem, we schedule …

Elective surgery patients have surgery in the operating room (OR), and then recover in one
or more downstream recovery units for several consecutive hours or days after surgery. …

We study a stochastic outpatient appointment scheduling problem (SOASP) in which we need
to design a schedule and an adaptive rescheduling (ie, resequencing or declining) policy …

Motivated by food distribution operations for non-profit organizations, we study a variant of the
stochastic routing-allocation problem under demand uncertainty, in which one decides the …
