This course discusses basic convex analysis (convex sets, functions, and optimization problems), optimization theory (linear, quadratic, semidefinite, and geometric programming; optimality conditions ...

This paper investigates the optimal allocation of the marketing budget within the marketing-mix decision variables so that sales (or profit) is maximized in a planning horizon. Since the influence of ...

Geometric optimisation and approximation algorithms form a vibrant research area that intersects computational geometry, combinatorial optimisation and algorithm design. Researchers are dedicated to ...

Geometric programming (GP) is a new technique that appears to have significant potential in marketing. Researchers have avoided optimization models in marketing, partially because empirical estimates ...
