The aim of this article is to measure the power of the members of french universities boards of directors, power such as mentioned by the law relative to the liberties and the responsabilities of universities (in french, the ?LRU? law).... more
If a water main is not well protected against hydraulic transients, devastating consequences can occur. However, there are often many viable alternatives for transient protection. Multiple-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) is applied here... more
This study argues that heterogeneous farms operating under a delivery target may yield significant economic benefits if they coordinate their production portfolio. To analyze the gains from cooperation, we simulate various cooperative... more
The high-elevation hydropower system in California, composed of more than 150 hydropower plants and regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), supplies 74 percent of in-state hydropower. The system has modest reservoir... more
We investigate the impact and the possible consequences of the construction of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. We model the European gas network as a cooperative game between regions as players over the pipeline network. Our model offers... more
This paper considers one machine job scheduling situations or sequencing problems, where clients can have more than a single job to be processed in order to get a final output. Moreover, a job can be of interest for different players.... more
Supply chain management is related to the coordination of materials, products and information flows among suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers and customers involved in producing and delivering a final product or service. In... more

The facility location game in continuous setting usually has two distinct sections: the location problem, where the facility position is found by cost minimization; the cost allocation, where the distribution of total cost is studied with... more
In this account of the history of voting-power measurement, we confine ourselves to the concept of a priori voting power. We show how the concept was re-invented several times and how the circumstances in which it was reinvented led to... more
In this document, we present the notion of a cost game, defined as a cooperative game where the gain from cooperation is the cost reduction obtained when the projects of a set of agents are realized in a coordinated way. The problem is... more
This work is an overview on n-person cooperative games in Game Theory, the mathemat- ical theory of interactive decision situations characterized by a group of agents, each of whom has to make a decision based on their own preferences on... more
As competition from emerging economies such as China and India puts pressure on global supply chains and as new constraints emerge, it presents opportunities for approaches such as game theory for solving the transshipment problem. In... more
—Sharing economy is a transformative socioeconomic phenomenon built around the idea of sharing underused resources and services, e.g. transportation and housing, thereby reducing costs and extracting value. Anticipating continued... more
The paper focuses on the change in household income composition and the factors that determine it. The results bring additional knowledge about household poverty dynamics. Based on the collective approach to the family and the cooperative... more
