A multi-product model for the design of global supply chains with reverse flows is proposed. Two levels of decisions are considered, one strategic and one tactical. The first is modelled through a macro perspective of time where the determination of the network structure and flows is accomplished. At tactical level, a micro perspective of time is considered, where production planning and invent...

Coaches are using video analysis to evaluate the performance of a team in field hockey. Events with the ball are tagged and saved in a match annotation file, which is used to lookup video fragments. The match annotation enables a coach to lookup and to evaluate single moments of the match but doesn't provide a coach insight in the tactic. Tactic doesn't relate to single event but to a sequence ...

A primary challenge to creating an intelligent vehicle that can competently drive in traffic is the task of tactical reasoning: deciding which maneuvers to perform in a particular driving situation, in real-time, given incomplete information about the rapidly changing traffic configuration. Human expertise in tactical driving is attributed to situation awareness, a task-specific understanding o...

studying the effect of marketing tactical capabilities on the financial performance of the firms is now proposed as one of the most important priorities of marketing researches. however, the results of the studies in many academic fields that are conducted about a specific issue are usually contrasting. meta-analysis is a research approach that helps the researcher to achieve a suitable combina...

I draw on ethnographic fieldwork carried out in 2017 2018 a South African NGO that promotes equality human rights across Africa. My aim is twofold: to explore the tensions between private public dimensions of engagement acti...

This study discusses the development of tactical-level integrated planning at seaport container terminals in an uncertain environment.

A commonly used technique for managing AI complexity in real-time strategy (RTS) games is to use action and/or state abstractions. High-level abstractions can often lead to goodions. High-level abstractions can often lead to good strategic decision making, but tactical decision quality may suffer due to lost details. A competing method is to sample the search space which often leads to good tac...
