چکیده مقاله:

We consider a two-echelon single commodity inventory system with one warehouse(supplier) at the higher echelon and one retailer at the lower echelon. The retailer stocks individual items of a commodity and satisfies unit demands which occur according to a Poisson process. The supplier stocks these items in packets and uses these packetsto: (i) satisfy the demands that occur for single packet and that form an independent Poisson process and (ii) replenish the retailer's stock. The supplier implements (s,S)ordering policy to replenish the stock of packets and the lead time is assumed to have exponential distribution. Though the retailer's stock is replenished instantaneously by the supplier if packets are available, and a random stock out period may occur at the retailer node when the supplier has zero stock. It is assumed that because of better stocking facility that is usually available at the warehouse, the items do not perish at the warehouse, but they do perish at the retailer node. It is also assumed that the items have exponential life time distribution at the lower echelon. The joint probability distribution of the inventory levels on both nodes is obtained in the steady state. Various system performance measures are calculated. The long run total expected cost per unit time is derived. These results are illustrated with numerical examples. Some special cases are discussed in detail.

Continuous Review and Partial Backorder Inventory System with Controllable Lead Time and Service Level Constraint

Inventory control is important in supply chain management. A great deal of research efforts have been devoted to it over a few decades. Previous researches always assume that the lead time is an exogenously parameter, and the unmet demand is backordered. However, these assumptions may not suit to the real environment. In this paper, a mathematical model regarding inventory control is set up for...

Continuous review inventory models for perishable items ordered in batches

This paper is an in-depth treatment of an inventory control problem with perishable items. We focus on two prototypes of perishability for items that have a common shelflife and that arrive in batches with zero lead time: (i) sudden deaths due to disasters (e.g., spoilage because of extreme weather conditions or a malfunction of the storage place) and (ii) outdating due to expirations (e.g., me...

Continuous review inventory model with variable lead time in a fuzzy random environment

Inventory control is an important field in supply chain management, and a great deal of research efforts have been devoted to it over past few decades. In previous researches, there are some assumptions like that the lead time is an incontrollable variable, and all the items replenished are of perfect quality, and so on. However, those assumptions may not be fit for the real environments, and t...
