Demand forecasting plays an important role in many inventory control problems. To mitigate the potential harms of model misspecification in this context, various forms of distributionally robust op…
A dual-channel single-mode-multi-mode-single-mode (SMS) fiber optic sensor encapsulated by polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) was proposed for the first time, for the simultaneous monitoring of the brachi…
Optical nonlinearity impairments have been a major obstacle for high-speed, long-haul and large-capacity optical transmission. In this paper, we propose a novel convolutional neural network (CNN)-b…
A Radio over Fiber system based on optical frequency multiplication and multiplexing compatible with 3G/4G/5G systems for full spectrum access and handover with multiple scenarios is proposed and a…
Stochastic inventory systems with lead times are often challenging to optimize, including single-sourcing lost-sales and dual-sourcing inventory systems. Recent numerical results suggest that cappe…
JD.com pioneered same-day delivery as a standard service in China’s business-to-consumer e-commerce sector in 2010. To balance the urgent need to meet growing demands while maintaining high-quali…
ervice-level constraint is often used as a metric to directly control the quality of service (e.g., managing the probability of stockout) in practice. Many inventory problems with service-level con…
Single-sourcing lost-sales inventory systems with lead times are notoriously difficult to optimize. In this paper, we propose a new family of capped base-stock policies and provide a new perspectiv…
