Analyzing process flexibility: A distribution-free approach with partial expectations
We develop a distribution-free model to evaluate the performance of process flexibility structures when only the mean and partial expectation of the demand are known. We characterize the worst-case demand distribution under general concave objective functions, and apply it to derive tight lower boun...
