TL;DR: Theoretical analysis and simulations demonstrate that the new DS-CSCR outperforms the traditional two-level decision making with the improvements in both cloud service composition and computing resource allocation.

TL;DR: Flexibility of manufacturing systems is currently under intensive study, and the need for objective measurement of this important characteristic is widely expressed as mentioned in this paper, where a survey of the literature dealing with quantification of certain types of flexibility, analyses the proposed measures, and presents critical views.

TL;DR: This research expands a two-echelon supply chain consisting of one manufacturer and one retailer, which sells one kind of product with lower carbon emission, and shows that supply chain’s profit in the cooperative form is higher than non-cooperative one.

TL;DR: In this paper, an ordering policy for raw materials, to meet the demands of a production facility which supplies a fixed quantity of finished products to outside buyers, at a fixed interval of time, is developed.

TL;DR: The EOQ model with setup cost reduction in the variable lead time environment has been extended to the EMQ model which increases the applicability tremendously and investigates a more realistic situation where there is only a finite number of opportunities forsetup cost reduction investment.
