3rd presentation: Thursday, April 28
MDPmarket3, Remanufacturing3,
Airline3
 | 15 minutes |
| Focus on numerical results, implications, extensions. Emphasize the
stochastic model rather than any optimization algorithms, etc. |
| Turn in a final exam problem (with solution) based on the article you
reviewed, or the stochastic model it used/described. This problem
should be solvable within 30 minutes under exam conditions. |
2nd presentation: Monday, March 28, 2011 Black, 2:10 p.m.
MDPmarket2, Remanufacturing2,
Airline2
| 15 minutes |
| Describe the analysis and results (as time allows) of the stochastic model |
| Electronic presentations brought to class
early on USB or Zip drive or downloaded from your site onto the networked PC
in the conference room |
1st presentation: Thursday, February 17
MDPmarket1, Remanufacturing1,
Airline1
This is the first of three presentations. Each team member must have
approximately equal time across all three presentations but the allocation is up
to the team.
| 15 minutes |
| Introduce the application and the stochastic model |
| Electronic presentations either emailed ahead of time or brought to class
early on USB drive |
| Distribute your paper to the class by Tuesday, 2/15 |
Teams:
Articles to be reviewed in groups of 2-3 must satisfy the following:
| Published in an archival refereed journal within the past 5 years |
| Describes an application of some topic from this course, e.g., Markov
chain, Markov decision process, renewal process, queuing model, Brownian
motion |
| Does not contain (too much) advanced material to be comprehensible to
other students in this course |
Selection of articles will be partly based on variety of topics covered.
