Intelligent techniques for forecasting multiple time series in real-world systems
No full textPurpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe a real-world system developed for a large food distribution company which requires forecasting demand for thousands of products across multiple warehouses. The number of different time series that the system must model and predict is on the order of 105. The study details the system's forecasting algorithm which efficiently handles several difficult requirements including the prediction of multiple time series, the need for a continuously self-updating model, and the desire to automatically identify and analyze various time series characteristics such as seasonal spikes and unprecedented events. Design/methodology/approach – The forecasting algorithm makes use of a hybrid model consisting of both statistical and heuristic techniques to fulfill these requirements and to satisfy a variety of business constraints/rules related to over- and under-stocking. Findings – The robustness of the system has been proven by its heavy and sustained use since being adopted in November 2009 by a company that serves 91 percent of the combined populations of Australia and New Zealand. Originality/value – This paper provides a case study of a real-world system that employs a novel hybrid model to forecast multiple time series in a non-static environment. The value of the model lies in its ability to accurately capture and forecast a very large and constantly changing portfolio of time series efficiently and without human intervention.Neal Wagner, Zbigniew Michalewicz, Sven Schellenberg, Constantin Chiriac, Arvind Mohai

The Penrose’s Law and Decision-Making Processes in the Council of the European Union. Case Study: the Impact of the Square Root’ Rule on Formation of Romania’s Coalitions in the Council of Ministers
No full textEnlargement of the European Union has led to much discussion
on the need to reform institutions so that the various inequalities between the
member states to be removed. Such Treaties of Nice and Lisbon do not grant to
citizens of member the same influence in the decision-making in the Council of
Ministers. One of the solutions proposed to remedy this problem is to establish
a voting scheme that gives each country a share of votes proportional to the
square root of the population and determining the optimum of a threshold,
known as the Jagiellonian Compromise. Starting from the analysis of Penrose
square root law in the decision-making Council of Ministers, the article presents
a case study on the influence of approximation by rounding the share of
votes on the coalition’s formation in the case of Romania
