Multi-resource allocation in stochastic project scheduling

Daniel Kuhn, Wolfram Wiesemann

We propose a resource allocation model for project scheduling. Our model accommodates multiple resources and decision-dependent activity durations inspired by microeconomic theory. First, we elaborate a deterministic problem formulation. In a second stage, ...

Gestion des risques pour les laboratoires de recherche et d'enseignement

Aristide Ramondgwendé Ouédraogo

The academic research and education risk problem as well as the diversification of risk types have increased concurrently with research development. Moreover, academia induces important worsening factors affecting risk such as high turnover of collaborator ...

A model of risk-sensitive route-choice behaviour and the potential benefit of route guidance

Gunnar Flötteröd

In this paper, we present a simulation-based investigation of the potential benefit of route-guidance information in the context of risk-sensitive travelers. We set up a simple two-route scenario where travelers are repeatedly faced with risky route-choice ...

Stability of a leakage pathway in a cemented annulus

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion

The risk minimization of carbon dioxide (CO2) storage relies to some extent on well integrity assurance. While chemical reactions between the constitutive materials of the wellbore - such as cement - and stored CO 2 do not jeopardize the efficiency of a de ...

Proportionality of interventions to restore structural safety of existing bridges

Eugen Brühwiler

The proportionality of interventions on existing structures comprises a comparison between effort (cost) and benefit of interventions with the objective of an efficient use of means. This contribution discusses the evaluation of interventions to restore su ...

The Emergence of Risks: Contributing Factors

Marie-Valentine Renée Agnès Florin

With this report, IRGC aims to raise awareness among professionals about the fact that risks emerge from a common “fertile ground” that is cultivated by twelve generic “contributing factors”. IRGC defines and illustrates these generic factors, which are ap ...

Cash Sub-additive Risk Measures and Interest Rate Ambiguity

Claudia Ravanelli

A new class of risk measures called cash sub-additive risk measures is introduced to assess the risk of future financial, non financial and insurance positions. The debated cash additive axiom is relaxed into the cash sub-additive axiom to preserve the ori ...

Climate change and natural hazards in the Grisons

Michael Lehning

On account of the current global warming, climate researchers warn of a possible increase in the frequency and magnitude of extreme weather conditions in the future. As an alpine canton, the Grisons are particularly exposed to such events. In the article, ...

R&D cooperation and failures in innovation projects: Empirical evidence from French CIS data

Stéphane Lhuillery

The second French Community Innovation Survey (CIS) indicates that 14% of R&D collaborating firms had to abandon or delay their innovation projects due to difficulties in their partnerships, an outcome which we term “cooperation failures”. Controlling for ...

A Stochastic Programming Approach for QoS-Aware Service Composition

Daniel Kuhn, Wolfram Wiesemann

We formulate the service composition problem as a multi-objective stochastic program which simultaneously optimizes the following quality of service (QoS) parameters: workflow duration, service invocation costs, availability, and reliability. All of these ...
