Crew scheduling is an important production planning of airlines. Being optimized crew scheduling could make full use of human resources, and reduce operating costs. The traditional airline crew scheduling model is deterministic and does not include potential disruptions due to weather, air traffic control, etc. To take into account of effects of random factors such as weather, air traffic contr...

In chance-constrained optimization problems, a solution is assumed to be feasible only with certain, sufficiently high probability. For computational and theoretical purposes, the convexity property of the resulting constraint set is treated. It is known, for example, that a suitable combination of a concavity property of the probability distribution and concavity of constraint mappings are suf...

This paper focuses on generating the optimal solutions of the solid transportation problem under fuzzy environment, in which the supply capacities, demands and transportation capacities are supposed to be type-2 fuzzy variables due to the instinctive imprecision. In order to model the problem within the framework of the credibility optimization, three types of new defuzzification criteria, i.e....

As an essential substructure underlying a large class of chance-constrained programming problems with finite discrete distributions, the mixing set with 0 − 1 knapsack has received considerable attentions in recent literature. In this study, we present a family of strong inequalities that subsume known inequalities for this set. We also find many other inequalities that can be explained by lift...

We consider a two player bimatrix game where the entries of the payoff matrices are random variables. We formulate this problem as a chance-constrained game by considering that the payoff of each player is defined using a chance constraint. We consider the case where the entries of the payoff matrices are independent normal/Cauchy random variables. We show a one-to-one correspondence between a ...

We consider chance-constrained programs in which the probability distribution of the random parameters is deterministic and known. Two prominent approaches to deal with these programs are sampling approximations and robust approximations. In the last decade, there has been enormous interest in both these areas of research. This article aims to provide a brief summary of a select number of publi...
