We introduce a unified framework for rich vehicle and inventory routing problems with complex physical and temporal constraints. Demands are stochastic, can be non-stationary, and are forecast using any model that provides the expected demands and their er ...
The dramatic rise of time-series data produced in a variety of contexts, such as stock markets, mobile sensing, sensor networks, data centre monitoring, etc., has fuelled the development of large-scale distributed real-time computation systems (e.g., Apach ...
Corporate disclosure is the most important source of information about the firm for the outside investors. While some disclosure of public firms is mandated by regulation, firm managers can provide extra information at their discretion by making voluntary ...
A model of infrequent rebalancing can explain specific predictability patterns in the time series and cross-section of stock returns. First, infrequent rebalancing produces return autocorrelations that are consistent with empirical evidence from intraday r ...
Many countries rely on high levels of generation from Variable Renewable Energies (VREs) to decarbonise their power systems. However, scaling up VREs beyond a certain threshold generates new challenges in the already complex electricity system and renewabl ...
Efficiency and energy consumption reduction are becoming a key issue in elevation applications. Energy Storage Systems (ESS) can play a significant role in this field, together with their associated Energy Management Strategy (EMS) to optimize the overall ...

Elliptical distributions are useful for modelling multivariate data, multivariate normal and Student t distributions being two special classes. In this paper, we provide a definition for the elliptical tempered stable (ETS) distribution based on its charac ...
We introduce a novel class of term structure models for variance swaps. The multivariate state process is characterized by a quadratic diffusion function. The variance swap curve is quadratic in the state variable and available in closed form, greatly faci ...
This dissertation consists of three chapters. The first chapter examines whether the availability of credit default swaps (CDS) has consequences for creditor governance. CDSs offer creditors the opportunity to hedge credit risk and may impact their willing ...
In this paper, convergence and performance properties of a sample-data continuous time model predictive control (MPC) scheme with economic performance index are developed. In particular, we provide sufficient conditions for convergence of the close loop st ...
