Pricing Policies of Excess Capacity in Make to Order Production Systems
2014
The research concerns a make to order manufacturing environment and two classes of customers who submit orders. The core customers have a contract with the firm at fixed services level (price and due date). The short-term customers submit the orders based on the price set by the firm. In this paper, it is proposed a pricing policy based on fuzzy logic to set the price for the short-term customers. The fuzzy approach captures the state of the manufacturing systems in terms of congestion in order to set the price. The policy proposed is compared to a fixed price, and to a state-dependent policy based on three levels of price. A discrete event simulation environment is used to test the propose…
Service quality benchmarking via a novel approach based on fuzzy ELECTRE III and IPA: an empirical case involving the Italian public healthcare conte…
2017
A novel fuzzy-based approach which combines ELECTRE III along with the Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) is proposed in the present work to comparatively evaluate the service quality in the public healthcare context. Specifically, ELECTRE III is firstly considered to compare the service performance of examined hospitals in a noncompensatory manner. Afterwards, IPA is employed to support the service quality management to point out improvement needs and their priorities. The proposed approach also incorporates features of the Fuzzy Set Theory so as to address the possible uncertainty, subjectivity and vagueness of involved experts in evaluating the service quality. The model is applied to…
An user friendly Real Options based Model to Optimize Pharmaceutical R&D Portfolio
2013
Pharmaceutical industry pays great attention to its R&D process because it is a long, dynamic, very expensive, and uncertain process. On the other hand this process can be modelled as a step-wise process and each stage allows to achieve better information and generally lower uncertainty. In order to build up the best portfolio a tool able to capture the intrinsic flexible nature of the process should be selected: real options analysis has this characteristic but as widely demonstrated in literature, is narrowed to very limited cases because its perceived complexity. Basing on OptFolio, a model available in literature, this paper proposes an user friendly programming model based on Real Opti…

Paesaggio e governo del territorio
2019
Per il paesaggio, come tema centrale del governo del territorio, sono stati introdotti in Italia specifici strumenti di pianificazione finalizzati sia alla tutela che alla valorizzazione e alla gestione della sua trasformazione. Tali strumenti di pianificazione sono stati l’esito di un dibattito scientifico animato da tre diverse interpretazioni di paesaggio: l’approccio estetico-percettivo inteso come rappresentazione della natura attraverso sintesi artistiche; l’approccio geografico-strutturale ricondotto alla dimensione funzionale e sistemica dell’ambiente e inteso come analisi e interpretazione oggettiva della realtà; l’approccio intermedio tra soggettività estetica e oggettività delle …

The Role of Ambidexterity and Vacillation on Firms' Innovation: an Inter-firm Network Perspective
2014
This article examines the underexplored balancing between exploration and exploitation in inter-firm network dimension by applying an ambidexterity and vacillation behavior and how this impacts on different firm’s innovation performances. We propose reconciliation between exploration and exploitation within a network of inter-firm ties, by matching two specific structural network embeddedness positions that are centrality and structural holes. We observe how a firm reconciles exploitation and exploration in their inter-firm networks by adopting two different behaviors, ambidexterity and vacillation. According to the former a firm statically assumes in the same time a network position charac…
