Download or read book Optimality Criteria of Economic Growth as Examples of Optimal Resource Allocation Over Time written by Mohamed Ali El-Hodiri and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my PhD dissertation defended in 1966 at the University of Minnesota and it was never published. It has been cited and used in other researchers work so I now make it available. The problem of optimal resource allocation over time is formulated as an optimal control problem. This is where the existence of optimal programs is investigated (and sufficient conditions are provided) for the first time in economics. When earlier authors spoke of existence, they spoke of convergence of the integral defining the optimality criterion. Optimal programs were characterized in terms of market equilibria at each point in time as well as imputed prices for stocks of capital.One of the propositions in the paper establishes the principle of centralization of planning and decentralization of implementation (this closely relates to polycenterism advocated by European socialist parties in the late 1950s. If one uses a measure space of traders instead of the basic time interval and assume pure exchange then the existence theorem of this paper can greatly simplify the proof of existence of equilibrium in a or a much more flexible model of exchange with continuum of traders.

Book A Sample path Optimization Approach for Optimal Resource Allocation in Stochastic Projects

Download or read book A Sample path Optimization Approach for Optimal Resource Allocation in Stochastic Projects written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research has been to develop an optimization method that can be utilized to determine optimal resource allocations for projects in an uncertain (stochastic) environment. The project under consideration is modeled as a stochastic activity network (SAN) where the workload requirements for each activity are assumed to be random with some specified distribution. Our concern is the time/cost tradeoff problem where the project manager can affect the duration of each activity in the project by allocating more or less of a scarce resource to the competing activities (at some cost). The objective is therefore to minimize the total expected cost of the project by assigning the resource to the various activities while simultaneously respecting precedence relationships among the activities and constraints on the total resource available. In particular we would like to analyze stochastic projects of reasonable size (>100 activities) and provide an optimization tool that achieves results in sufficiently small amount of time to make its application practical for realistic project management scenarios.

Book Resource Allocation Problems

Download or read book Resource Allocation Problems written by Toshihide Ibaraki and published by MIT Press (MA). This book was released on 1988 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses a theoretical problem encountered in a variety of areas in operations research and management science, including load distribution, production planning, computer scheduling, portfolio selection, and apportionment. It is a timely and comprehensive summary of the past thirty years of research on algorithmic aspects of the resource allocation problem and its variants, covering Lagrangean multiplier method, dynamic programming, greedy algorithms, and their generalizations. Modern data structures are used to analyze the computational complexity of each algorithm. The resource allocation problem the authors take up is an optimization problem with a single simple constraint: it determines the allocation of a fixed amount of resources to a given number of activities in order to achieve the most effective results. It may be viewed as a special case of the nonlinear programming or nonlinear integer programming problem. Contents: Introduction. Resource Allocation with Continuous Variables. Resource Allocation with Integer Variables. Minimizing a Convex Separable Function. Minimax and Maximin Resource Allocation Problems. Fair Resource Allocation Problem. Apportionment Problem. Fundamentals of Submodular Systems. Resource Allocation Problems under Submodular Constraints. Further Topics on Resource Allocation Problems. Appendixes: Algorithms and Complexity. NP-completeness and NP-hardness. Toshihide lbaraki is Professor in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Physics at Kyoto University and Naoki Katoh is Associate Professor in the Department of Management Science at Kobe University of Commerce. Resource Allocation Problemsis included in the Foundations of Computing Series edited by Michael Garey and Albert Meyer.
