A General Approach to Robustness in Logistics – Basic Concepts, Quantification Approaches and Experimental Evaluations (original) (raw)

Abstract

We direct our attention to robustness issues of dynamic decision problems. After having structured the discussion of robustness in the scientific literature, we develop a generic, domain-independent definition of the term “robust” by strictly distinguishing “acceptable” and “unacceptable” schedule updates. The main innovation is the development of a general approach to robustness that does not rely on domain-specific assumptions and the proposal of a quantification scheme to measure robustness-related properties. We prove the general applicability of our robustness concept in experiments with a transport system.
