1． How to Do Research? (Prof. Yufei Yuan)

2． Delayed Pricing Scheme of a Newsvendor (Prof. Kai Huang)

In this research, we study a single product multi-period pricing problem. The problem is a nonlinear non-convex optimization problem, for which a local optimal solution is not necessarily a global optimum. We are able to find a global optimal decision structure and to transform the nonlinear non-convex problem to a longest path problem accordingly. We also discuss the extensions of this model.

He is the Editorial Board Member of IJMC (International Journal of Mobile Communications) and others. Dr. Yuan was appointed as Wayne C. Fox Chair in Business Innovation in 2002-2008 and his name is listed in Who’s Who in Canada.

Professor Huang specializes in the applications of stochastic optimization techniques to supply chain management. His recent research interests include stochastic programming approaches for capacity planning and inventory control, mathematical programming models for assemble-to-order system optimization. Professor Huang’s research work has appeared in refereed articles published in journals such as Operations Research, European Journal of Operational Research, Operations Research Letters, and Information Systems and Operational Research. He served as the associate editor of Operations Research Letters, and as referees for journals such as Operations Research, Manufacturing & Service Operations Management, IIE Transactions, Naval Research Logistics, Production and Operations Management, Journal on Computing, Operations Research Letters, Encyclopedia of Operations Research and Management Science, European Journal of Operations Research, etc.
