(1, T) policy for a Two-echelon Inventory System with Perishable-on-the-Shelf Items
This paper deals with an i * Corresponding author Email address: nventory system with one central warehouse and a number of identical retailers. 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. Each retailer faces Poisson demand and employs (1, T) inventory policy. Although demand not met at a retai...
متن کاملThree Generic Methods for Evaluating Stochastic Multi-Echelon Inventory Systems
Globalization, product proliferation and fast product innovation have significantly increased the complexities of supply chains in many industries. One of the most important advancements of supply chain management in recent years is the development of models and methodologies for controlling inventory in general supply networks under uncertainty, and their wide-spread applications to industry. ...
متن کاملTwo-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...
متن کاملThe Cost Function for a Two-warehouse and Three-Echelon Inventory System
In this paper, the cost function for a three-echelon inventory system with two warehouses is derived. Transportation times are constant and retailers face independent Poisson demand. Replenishments are one-for-one. The lead time of a retailer is determined not only by the constant transportation time but also by the random delay incurred due to the availability of stock at the warehouses. We co...
متن کاملDynamic Inventory Models and Stochastic Programming
A wide class of single-product, dynamic inventory problems with convex cost functions and a finite horizon is investigated as a stochastic programming problem. When demands have finite discrete distribution functions, we show that the problem can be substantially reduced in size to a linear program with upper-bounded variables. Moreover,, we show that the reduced problem has a network represent...
