Dans ce mémoire, nous étudions un problème de tournées de véhicules dans lequel une flotte privée de véhicules n’a pas la capacité suffisante pour desservir les demandes des clients. Dans un tel cas, on fait appel à un transporteur externe. Ce dernier n’a aucune contrainte de capacité, mais un coût est encouru lorsqu’un client lui est affecté. Il n’est pas nécessaire de mettre tous les véhicules de la flotte privée en service si cette approche se révèle plus économique. L’objectif consiste à minimiser le coût fixe des véhicules, puis le coût variable de transport et le coût chargé par le transporteur externe. Notre travail consiste à appliquer la métaheuristique de recherche adaptative à grand voisinage sur ce problème. Nous comparons nos résultats avec ceux obtenus précédemment avec différentes techniques connues sur les instances de Christofides et celles de Golden.

This paper examines a characteristic of common property problems unmodeled in the published literature: Extracted common reserves are aften stored privately rather than immediately. We examine the positive and normative effects of such storage.

Genetic testing technologies are rapidly moving from the research laboratory to the market place. Very little scholarship considers the implications of private genetic testing for a public health care system such as Canada’s. It is critical to consider how and if these tests should be marketed to, and purchased by, the public. It is also imperative to evaluate the extent to which genetic tests are or should be included in Canada’s public health care system, and the impact of allowing a two-tiered system for genetic testing. A series of threshold tests are presented as ways of clarifying whether a genetic test is morally appropriate, effective and safe, efficient and appropriate for public funding and whether private purchase poses special problems and requires further regulation. These thresholds also identify the research questions around which professional, public and policy debate must be sustained: What is a morally acceptable goal for genetic services? What are the appropriate benefits? What are the risks? When is it acceptable that services are not funded under health care? And how can the harms of private access be managed?
