Minimization of useless work in resource failure recovery of workflow schedules

TL;DR: The model of the hierarchical workflows is used and an SMT and a CSP models are given to recover an ongoing schedule from a resource failure with the objective to minimize the work processed in vain.

Robust execution strategy for scheduling under uncertainty

TL;DR: This thesis investigates the problem of computing the minimum probability-guaranteed makespan and proposes methods for generating an execution strategy such that when uncertainty is dynamically realized, any schedule instantiated from the execution strategy will be guaranteed to finish within the robust makespan with the given level of confidence.

Quantifying the Bullwhip Effect in a Simple Supply Chain: The Impact of Forecasting, Lead Times, and Information

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the effect of the bullwhip effect on simple two-stage supply chains consisting of a single retailer and a single manufacturer and demonstrate that the effect can be reduced by centralizing demand information.
