An Efficient Algorithm for Computing Optimal (s, S) Policies
This paper presents an algorithm to compute an optimal (s, S) policy under standard assumptions (stationary data, well-behaved one-period costs, discrete demand, full backlogging, and the average-cost criterion). The method is iterative, starting with an arbitrary, given (s, S) policy and converging to an optimal policy in a finite number of iterations. Any of the available approximations can t...
متن کاملCharacterizing order processes of ( s , S ) and ( r , nQ ) policies
In this paper we provide a novel approach to characterize the order process of an (s, S) and an (r, nQ) inventory policy. These inventory policies are commonly used when a fixed order cost is present. We provide two distinct perspectives. First, we analyze the time between subsequent replenishments, as well as the size of the replenishment orders, and characterize the distribution of both. Seco...
متن کاملComputing globally optimal (s,S,T) inventory policies
We consider a single-echelon inventory installation under the (s,S,T) periodic review ordering policy. Demand is stationary random and, when unsatisfied, is backordered. Under a standard cost structure, we seek to minimize total average cost in all three policy variables; namely, the reorder level s, the order-up-to level S and the review interval T. Considering time to be continuous, we first ...
متن کاملs-Degrees within e-Degrees
For any enumeration degree a let D a be the set of s-degrees contained in a. We answer an open question of Watson by showing that if a is a nontrivial Σ2-enumeration degree, then D a has no least element. We also show that every countable partial order embeds into D a.
متن کاملOptimal and Near-Optimal ( s, S) Inventory Policies for Levy Demand Processes
A is a continuous-time, real-valued stochastic process which has independent and Levy jump process stationary increments, with no Brownian component. We study some of the fundamental properties of Levy jump processes and develop inventory models for them. Of particular interest to us is the gamma-distributed Levy process, in which the demand that occurs in a fixed period of time has a gamma dis...
