Recent developments in energy markets, such as the increasing share of inherently volatile
renewable power in the energy supply mix and the need of reducing carbon emissions while …

We provide a systematic review of current progress in integrated control and operations.
Recently, an increasing number of integrated methods have been presented in the literature …

This work focuses on the development of optimization-based scheduling strategies for the
coordination of microgrids. The main novelty of this work is the simultaneous management of …

Energy-intensive industries can take advantage of process flexibility to reduce operating
costs by optimal scheduling of production tasks. In this study, we develop an MILP …

We propose a model-based optimization approach for the integration of production
scheduling and dynamic process operation for general continuous/batch processes. The …

The integration of production management and process control decisions is critical for
improving economic performance of the chemical supply chain. A novel framework for …

In this work, we present a new Big-M reformulation for Generalized Disjunctive Programs.
Unlike the traditional Big-M reformulation that uses one M-parameter for each constraint, the …

Production planning and scheduling in the process industry in general and in the pulp and
paper (P&P) sector in particular can be very challenging. Most practitioners, however …

This paper addresses the short-term scheduling problem involved in the selection of a
subset of elective surgeries from a large waiting list. In order to overcome the combinatorial …

This study aims at analysing recent research on supply chain design with disruption
considerations in terms of the ripple effect in the supply chain. It develops different …
