A creativity support system based on causal mapping. (2016)
Journal Article
OLIVEIRA, F.S. 2018. A creativity support system based on causal mapping. Journal of computer information systems [online], 58(2), pages 99-109. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1080/08874417.2016.1202089

Theory development is a very complex process that requires creativity and highly specialized analytical skills. This article presents a new algorithm, based on causal mapping, for assisting in the creation of qualitative theories. This algorithm is a...

Dynamic capacity planning using strategic slack valuation. (2016)
Journal Article
BUNN, D.W. and OLIVEIRA, F.S. 2016. Dynamic capacity planning using strategic slack valuation. European journal of operational research [online], 253(1), pages 40-50. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejor.2016.02.013

In this paper we analyze a particular aspect of capacity planning that is concerned with the active trading of production facilities. For a homogenous product market we provide a theoretical rationale for the valuation and trading of these assets bas... Read More about Dynamic capacity planning using strategic slack valuation..

Recursive expected conditional value at risk in the fleet renewal problem with alternative fuel vehicles. (2016)
Journal Article
ANSARIPOOR, A.H., OLIVEIRA, F.S. and LIRET, A. 2016. Recursive expected conditional value at risk in the fleet renewal problem with alternative fuel vehicles. Transportation research part C: emerging technologies [online], 65, pages 156-171. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trc.2015.12.010

We study the fleet portfolio management problem faced by a firm deciding which alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) to choose for its fleet to minimise the weighted average of cost and risk, in a stochastic multi-period setting. We consider different typ... Read More about Recursive expected conditional value at risk in the fleet renewal problem with alternative fuel vehicles..
