By analyzing the current situation of inventory management of enterprises of fresh agricultural products in Handan city as an example and based on the nature of fresh agricultural products, this paper points out the defect and disadvantage of single classification standard of ABC classification method in inventory classification; and applies the improved classification method based on ABC class...

multi-echelon inventory systems are one of the most important and attractive areas in modelling supply chain management so that several researches and studies have been done about. in this paper, the total cost function of a two-echelon inventory system with central warehouse and many identical retailers controlled by continuous review inventory policy is estimated. we have assumed the demand i...

Medicine segmentation in a hospital is one of the needed inventory management. The objective is to find the priority of every medicine to create an appropriate inventory management system. The most common technique which often used for this segmentation is ABC classification analysis which is adapted based on pareto principle. The result of this technique is a segmentation of the medicine into ...

The aim of this paper is to propose and discuss a hierarchical multi-criteria spare parts classification method developed for inventory management purposes and tested through an intensive case study in an Italian household appliances manufacturing company. In particular, the classification scheme under concern is built on the basis of several key dimensions in an almost hierarchical fashion, re...

Recently, Ramanathan (R., Ramanathan, ABC inventory classification with multiple-criteria using weighted linear optimization, Computer and Operations Research, 33(3) (2006) 695-700) introduced a simple DEA-like model to classify inventory items on the basis of multiple criteria. However, the classification results produced by Ramanathan are not consistent with the domination concept encouraged ...

this paper concentrates on a new procedure which experimentally recognises gears and bearings faults of a typical gearbox system using a least square support vector machine (lssvm). two wavelet selection criteria maximum energy to shannon entropy ratio and maximum relative wavelet energy are used and compared to select an appropriate wavelet for feature extraction. the fault diagnosis method co...
