SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:When History Feeds Fiction
DESCRIPTION:The central core of Gabriel Garcia Marquez’ novel\, The General in his Labyrinth (1989\, translated by Edith Grossman) focuses on Simon Bolivar’s last and final trip. Masterly weaving history and fiction\, the author focuses his attention on the final months of life of a sick and defeated man\, one who has been rejected by the nations he has liberated. Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s writing in this novel is inextricably tied to a geographic and historic reality. He not only describes the Colombian and Venezuelan battles for independence\, he provides a prolific description of the navigation through the Rio Magdalena and the small fluvial towns where the General stops on his way.\n\nThis study group for those 50 and above will be led by instructor Eliana Moya-Raggio for one hour and 45 minute sessions on Mondays from September 25 through December 4 (except for October 16).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Multidimensional Bargaining and Inventory Risk in Supply Chains: An Experimental Study
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWe study the impact of multidimensional bargaining and the location of inventory risk on the performance of a two-stage supply chain.  We conduct a controlled human-subjects experiment where a retailer and supplier either interact through ultimatum offers or dynamically bargain over contract terms\, including a wholesale price and\, potentially\, an order quantity.  We also manipulate whether the risk associated with unsold inventory lies with the retailer or the supplier or is endogenously determined in the bargaining process.  One key insight is that supply chain efficiency is significantly higher when the order quantity is included in the negotiation and that\, contrary to the normative theory\, this leads to a Pareto improvement whereby both the supplier and retailer earn higher profits.  A second important result\, also counter to the normative theory\, is that the party incurring the cost of unsold inventory always earns a lower profit than their counterpart\, regardless of the bargaining environment or inventory risk location.  To explain these data\, we posit that retailers and suppliers are affected by an anchoring bias and demonstrate that it can explain many of our results.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Colloquium Film Screening. Rachel
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a screening of the film\, \"Rachel\,\" a 2009 documentary film by Simone Bitton detailing the death of Rachel Corrie. Rachel was an American peace activist\, killed by an Israeli military bulldozer in 2003 during a nonviolent action against the demolition of Palenstinians homes in Rafah\, Gaza. \n    \nRachel is an in-depth cinematic investigation into the death of an unknown young girl\, made with a rigor and scope normally reserved for first-rate historical characters. It gives voice to all the people involved in Rachel’s story\, from Palestinian and foreign witnesses to Israeli military spokespersons and investigators\, doctors\, activists and soldiers linked to the affair. The film begins like a classic documentary\, but soon develops\, transcending its subject and transforming into a cinematographic meditation on youth\, war\, idealism\, and political utopia. In the beginning\, there is this: she was called Rachel Corrie. She was 23. She was convinced that her American nationality would be enough to make her an effective human shield\, that her simple presence would save lives\, olive trees\, wells\, and houses

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Constraining New Physics with Lepton Flavor Violating Meson Decays\n
DESCRIPTION:Radiative and non-radiative lepton flavor violating (LFV) decays M --> (gamma) + l-lbar pair of meson states M with different quantum numbers can be used to put constraints on the Wilson coefficients of effective operators describing LFV interactions at low energy scales. The restricted kinematics of the two-body meson decays allows for the selection of operators with particular quantum numbers\, significantly reducing the reliance on the single operator dominance assumption that is prevalent in constraining parameters of the effective LFV Lagrangian. Studies of radiative lepton flavor violating M --> (gamma) + l-lbar pair decays provide complementary access to those effective operators\, but more importantly\, they can provide access to operators that cannot be directly probed via two-body decays.\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Grisselle Centeno\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:The Bloodmobile Routing Problem\nGrisselle Centeno\, PhD\n\nBlood centers must determine on a daily basis a set of locations among a group of potential sites to route bloodmobiles for blood collection so as to avoid shortages for health interventions. In this study\, a vehicle routing problem is modeled using integer programming approach to identify number of bloodmobiles to operate\, and to minimize the distance travelled. The model is extended to incorporate uncertainty in blood potentials and variable durations in bloodmobile visits.\n\nDr. Grisselle Centeno is an Associate Professor in the Department of Industrial and Management Systems Engineering at the University of South Florida. Her research and teaching interests include optimization-based modeling for the planning and control of operations in healthcare\, transportation and manufacturing industries. She possesses experience in working with large-scale mathematical programming models and building decision support systems. Her research work has been supported by NSF\, FDOT\, and ONR\, among other sources. Dr. Centeno is also highly involved in conducting research in the area of engineering education and promoting the growth of a diverse engineering workforce.\n\nThe seminar series “Providing Better Healthcare through Systems Engineering” is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS):  Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.\n\nFor additional information and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, \nplease contact genehkim@umich.edu
