Modeling and optimization of single-leg multi-fare class overbooking problem: the case of Ethiopian Airlines by Bonsa, Getachew Basa

“…Moreover, this work investigates the economic rationale behind the no overbooking policy used by Ethiopian airlines for some of its flights. The overbooking model developed was solved using both a closed form approach using derivatives and Monte Carlo simulation with a derivative free optimization algorithm. …”

Quantifying MyCiTi supply usage via Big Data and Agent Based Modelling by Willenberg, Darren

“…It is however recommended that additional research be conducted into more detailed calibration activities, such as fine-tuning agent behaviour during simulation. Ultimately this research study achieves its explorative objectives of model development and testing, and paves a way forward for future research into the practical applications of Big Data and ABM in the South African context.…”

Population pharmacokinetic modelling to address the gaps in knowledge of commonly used HIV and TB drugs in children by Tikiso, Tjokosela

“…The developed paediatric dosing tool contains two major sections. a) the ‘generic module’ which uses allometric scaling -based predictions to explore the expected AUC for a generic drug, b) the ‘drug-specific module’ which can simulate entire pharmacokinetic profiles (concentration over time after dose) by using a drug-specific population pharmacokinetic model. …”
