Inventory – forecasting: Mind the gap

چکیده

We are concerned with the interaction and integration between demand forecasting inventory control, in context of supply chain operations. The majority literature is fragmented. Forecasting research more often than not assumes to be an end itself, disregarding any subsequent stages computation that needed transform forecasts into replenishment decisions. Conversely, most contributions theory assume (and its parameters) known, effect preceding computation. Explicit recognition these shortcomings important step towards realistic theoretical developments, but still particularly helpful unless they somehow addressed. Even then, constitute exogenous variables serially feed a stock control model. Finally, there small growing stream explicitly built around jointly tackling question. introduce framework define four levels integration: from disregarding, acknowledging, partly addressing, fully understanding interactions. Focusing on last two, we conduct structured review relevant (integrated) academic area argue for their classification regard integration. show development one level another many cases chronological order, also associated specific schools thought. although movement adds realism, it complexity terms actual implementations, thus trade-off exists. article makes contribution has always been fragmented despite importance bringing communities together solve problems common interest. close indicative agenda further call contributions, work would help expand empirical knowledge base this area.

Mind the (Intelligibility) Gap

Intelligibility, evolution and emulation are some of the key notions for digital information preservation. In this paper we define formally these notions on the basis of modules and inter-module dependencies. Subsequently, we discuss how we can handle the evolution of modules and dependencies. This work can be exploited for building advanced preservation information systems and registries.

Mind the Gap!

In 1835, the French naturalist Felix Dujardin started crushing ciliates under the microscope and observed that the tiny cells exuded a jellylike, water-insoluble substance, which he described as a ‘‘gelée vivante’’ and which was eventually christened ‘‘protoplasm’’ by the physician Johann E. Purkinje and the botanist Hugo von Mohl. Fifty years after Dujardin’s observations, the possibility that...

Mind the Gap

Intraband-gap states in conjugated polymers have captivated the chemistry community for the better part of five decades due to their position within the forbidden band gap, between the valence and conduction bands. In a large part, this fascination was (and still is) aided by the quest to find alternative materials that are easily processable compared to their solid-state semiconductor counterp...

Mind the gap ⋆

In this summary of the application of Dyson-Schwinger equations to the theory and phenomenology of hadrons, some deductions following from a nonperturbative, symmetry-preserving truncation are highlighted, notable amongst which are results for pseudoscalar mesons. We also describe inferences from the gap equation relating to the radius of convergence of a chiral expansion, applications to heavy...
