A two-commodity perishable inventory system

A two-commodity perishable inventory system

We present a two-commodity perishable stochastic inventory system under continuous review at a service facility with a finite waiting room. The maximum storage capacity for the i–th item is fixed as Si (i = 1, 2). We assume that a demand for the i–th commodity is of unit size. The arrival instants of customers to the service station constitutes a Poisson process with parameter λ. The customer d...

We consider perishable-on-the-shelf items; that is, all items have a fixed shelf life and start to age on their arrival at the retailers.

Perishable Inventory System with a Finite Population and Repeated Attempts

Two-echelon Inventory System with Perishable- on-the-Shelf Items

This paper deals with an inventory system with one central warehouse and a number of identical retailers. We consider perishable-on-theshelf items; that is, all items have a fixed shelf life and start to age on their arrival at the retailers. Each retailer faces Poisson demand and employs (1, T) inventory policy. Although demand not met at a retailer is lost, the unsatisfied demand at the centr...
