We consider the buffer content of a fluid queue or storage process. The buffer content varies in a way that depends on the state of an underlying three-state Markov process. In state 0 the buffer content increases at a rate α(x) that is a function of the current buffer level x; in states 1 and 2 it decreases linearly, with different speeds. We study the steady-state buffer content, by using lev...

In production process, scheduling isan important role in meeting the orders and reducing cost. This process becomes more complicated when factory produces various products. Scheduling model can be divided into two groups: make-to-stock (MTS) make-to-order (MTO). General constraint MTSmodel is limited capacity inventory work aims to propose hybrid MTS-MTO that improve lead time maintain low inve...

We examine the impact of share repurchases on the information content of stock prices using several measures of price efficiency. The study is based on manually collected data on share repurchases in the United States for the period 2004-2010. We find that share repurchases make prices more efficient. In particular, share repurchases increase the accuracy of the stock price after negative infor...

This paper proposes a data-driven procedure to improve productivity in make-to-stock manufacturing. By leveraging recent developments information systems research, the addresses manufactur...

Sketch-N-Make is a prototype system that enables individuals to create dimensioned designs quickly for a restricted, but broadly useful, domain of machined metal and plastic prismatic parts. Process plans, xturing, tool selection, feeds and speeds, and toolpaths are automatically generated from the designs allowing parts to be manufactured on a machining center with the aid only of a technician...
