  Modeling Fairness

  • Lê Nguyên Hoang, presenter, GERAD - Polytechnique Montréal
  • Francois Soumis, GERAD et Polytechnique
  • Georges Zaccour, Chair in Game Theory and Management, GERAD and HEC Montréal

  The conceptualization of fairness is a difficult problem of mathematical modeling. Main results come from the cake-cutting literature, although they apply to a very specific sort of problem. In this talk, we generalize these ideas. In particular, we propose a quantification of fairness which can then be used for optimization.

  A Differential Game of Coordination in Supply Chain Quality Management

  • Pietro De Giovanni, presenter, Department of Information, Logistics and Innovation, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

  The implementation of a conformance quality practice entails a trade-off between conformance quality (appraisal and prevention) and non-conformance quality (internal and external failures) strategies. A supply chain differential game is introduced to face this trade-off through coordination.
