Optimization Letters covers all aspects of optimization, including theory, algorithms, computational studies, and applications. This journal provides an outlet for short communications in the field, as optimization continues to develop and expand across disciplines at an astonishing rate. Optimization Letters features concise and succinct articles, approximately 15 journal pages in length. Articles featured within this journal are accessible to readers, working in optimization, searching for information on recent developments within the field. The optimal design of reliable and maintainable systems is an important topic spanning many areas of operations and engineering, including, but not limited to, service systems, supply chains, manufacturing, transportation, telecommunications, and energy systems. These systems are typically complex and multifaceted with uncertain operating parameters and/or environments. For example, renewable energy systems that seek to ensure reliable and sustainable energy production are subject to highly volatile and uncertain weather conditions that evolve randomly over time. The optimal design and maintenance of such systems can benefit substantially from formal optimization models and mathematical formulations that are devised to better inform decision making. Moreover, computational techniques to solve such complex problems have emerged as key enablers of reliability and maintenance optimization.

In this paper, a Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) examination scheduling problem considering multi-stage processes is studied. Before the actual examination process,...
This paper investigates the collaborative scheduling problem of research and development (R&D) and manufacturing processes in the context of high-end equipment, and the objective is to minim...
In this paper, we investigate the chance-constrained support vector machine (SVM) problem in which the data points are virtually uncertain although some properties of distributions are avail...
This special issue contains 11 papers submitted by the participants of the International Conference “Mathematical Optimization Theory and Operations Research” (MOTOR 2020) which was held...
The main idea of Less is more approach (LIMA) is using as fewer as possible ingredients to provide the best possible outcome. This approach has been used successfully almost in all the scien...
