A Discrete-Time Model for Common Lifetime Inventory Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider a discrete-time s S inventory model in which the stored items have a random common lifetime with a discrete phase-type distribution. Demands arrive in batches following a discrete phase-type renewal process. With zero lead time and allowing backlogs, we construct a multidimensional Markov chain to model the inventorylevel process. We obtain a closed-form expected cost function. Numerical results demonstrate some properties of optimal ordering policies and cost functions. When compared with the results for the constant lifetime model, the variance of the lifetime significantly affects the system behavior. Thus, the formalism that we create here adds a new dimension to the research in perishable inventory control under uncertainty in lifetime.

The Lifetime Behavior of a New Discrete Time Mixed $delta$-shock Model
In this study, a mixed $delta$-shock model with discrete-time is defined by combining $delta$-shock and extreme shock models. In this model, a system with multiple states fails in two ways: first, when k interarrival times between two consecutive shocks with magnitude larger than the critical threshold $gamma$ are in $[delta_1, delta _2], delta_1 < delta _2$; and second, when the interarrival t...
متن کاملT-S FUZZY MODEL-BASED MEMORY CONTROL FOR DISCRETE-TIME SYSTEM WITH RANDOM INPUT DELAY
A memory control for T-S fuzzy discrete-time systems with sto- chastic input delay is proposed in this paper. Dierent from the common assumptions on the time delay in the existing literatures, it is assumed in this paper that the delays vary randomly and satisfy some probabilistic dis- tribution. A new state space model of the discrete-time T-S fuzzy system is derived by introducing some stocha...
متن کاملSimultaneous Pricing, Routing, and Inventory Control for Perishable Goods in a Two-echelon Supply Chain
Due to the rapid development of technology in recent years, market competition and customer expectations have increased more than ever. In this situation, it is vital for businesses survival to determine the appropriate policy for inventory control, pricing, and routing, and decisions regarding each of them are often made separately. If the products have a perishable nature, it will be more imp...
متن کاملAdmissibility analysis for discrete-time singular systems with time-varying delays by adopting the state-space Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model
This paper is pertained with the problem of admissibility analysis of uncertain discrete-time nonlinear singular systems by adopting the state-space Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model with time-delays and norm-bounded parameter uncertainties. Lyapunov Krasovskii functionals are constructed to obtain delay-dependent stability condition in terms of linear matrix inequalities, which is dependent on the low...
متن کاملRobust Model Predictive Control for a Class of Discrete Nonlinear systems
This paper presents a robust model predictive control scheme for a class of discrete-time nonlinear systems subject to state and input constraints. Each subsystem is composed of a nominal LTI part and an additive uncertain non-linear time-varying function which satisfies a quadratic constraint. Using the dual-mode MPC stability theory, a sufficient condition is constructed for synthesizing the ...
