An overview of the recent results on economic model predictive control (EMPC) is presented
and discussed addressing both closed-loop stability and performance for nonlinear systems …

Enterprise-wide Optimization (EWO) has become a major goal in the process industries due
to the increasing pressures for remaining competitive in the global marketplace. EWO …

In this paper, we present a brief overview of enterprise-wide optimization and challenges in
multiscale temporal modeling and integration of different models for the levels of planning …

In today's energy markets, there is a growing effort toward the alignment of the industrial
sector and the power grid for the sake of efficient energy distribution and consumption. In …

An inventory management problem is addressed for a make-to-order supply chain that has
inventory holding and/or manufacturing locations at each node. The lead times between …

In this work, we introduce an approach for the reactive scheduling of production systems
with bounded uncertain parameters. The proposed method follows a state-space …

We study a Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) formulation for optimizing the
operational costs of gas pipeline networks. The major operating cost comes from running the …

We present an integrated digital twin framework for supply chain business processes. The
framework models supply chain processes as queueing networks where agents perform …

This paper addresses the solution of simultaneous scheduling and planning problems in a
production–distribution network of continuous multiproduct plants that involves different …

This paper presents a new mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) formulation for the
short-term scheduling of liquid transportation by pipeline. It relies on a continuous-time …
