Integrated Operations: a Proposal for Operations Management Teaching and Research
This paper, addressed to professors of operations management (OM) in research institutions, suggests that the long-term academic viability of our discipline requires the generation of a theory uniquely associated with the practice of OM. Such a theory will rest on foundations laid by other disciplines, but must find its own unique synthesis that attends to the problems of OM practice. The paper...
متن کاملAn integrated expert system/operations research approach for the optimization of natural gas pipeline operations
This paper reports on a project, conducted jointly between SaskEnergy/Transgas and the University of Regina, which aims at developing an integrated decision support system for the optimization of natural gas pipeline operations. In this integrated approach, both expert systems and operations research techniques are used to model the operations of the gas pipelines. The decision support system c...
متن کاملOperations Research in Forest Harvesting
Operations research techniques such as mathematical programming, simulation, and the development of planning systems can contribute to decision-making in forestry management. Computers have dramatically changed the possibilities and practice of data collection, storage, analysis, and presentation but the difficulty of obtaining access to them has until recently limited their use. Development of...
متن کاملAn Integrated Scheduling and Operations Approach to Airport Congestion Mitigation
Most flight delays are created by imbalances between demand and capacity at the busiest airports. Absent large increases in capacity, airport congestion can only be mitigated through scheduling interventions or improved capacity utilization. This paper presents an integrated approach that jointly optimizes the airport’s flight schedule at the strategic level and the utilization of airport capac...
متن کاملAn innovative approach to capability-based emergency operations planning
This paper describes the innovative use information technology for assisting disaster planners with an easily-accessible method for writing and improving evidence-based emergency operations plans. This process is used to identify all key objectives of the emergency response according to capabilities of the institution, community or society. The approach then uses a standardized, objective-based...
