Demon: a management model for marketing new products.
TL;DR: DecDecision Mapping via Optimum GO-NO Networks (DEMON) as discussed by the authors is a chance-constrained programming model for use in developing a strategy for marketing new products where, inter alia, the pertinent statistical distributions are only partially known and, in fact, may change in response to the strategies employed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Some Properties of Redundant Constraints and Extraneous Variables in Direct and Dual Linear Programming Problems
TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that a bounded solution set in one problem implies an unbounded solution set for another problem, unless both are one-point sets, and the ideas of projection equivalence are then developed to suggest a possible route for utilizing these onepoint solution properties for analyzing or solving linear programming problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic multiattribute models for mixed manpower systems
TL;DR: This paper reviews a wide variety of manpower and personnel models of the goal programming variety concerned with how analytical models can be brought to bear on the problems of combining military and civilian manpower into one management system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating the information content of a measure of plant output: An application to high-technology manufacturing
TL;DR: The results of tests show that TNDE as a single aggregate measure of plant output outperforms the two outputs from which it is synthesized, demonstrating how DEA concepts and models provide a rigorous and systematic basis for conducting ex post technology evaluation to guide continuous improvements in a plant's current operations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Entrepreneurial talent and economic development in China
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the economic miracle of China in the past three decades can be attributed to the reallocation of entrepreneurial talent from the government/state and agricultural sectors to business activities.
