Kandpal Deepa H. & Tinani Khimya S. Department of Statistics, Faculty of Science, The M.S. University of Baroda Vadodara-390002, Gujarat, India . ABSTRACT This paper develops a model to determine an optimal ordering policy for deteriorating items under permissible delay of payment and allowable shortage for future supply uncertainty for two suppliers. In this paper we have introduced the aspect...

This study contributes to the literature on supply chain coordination by coordinating the research and development (R&D) effort, retail price, and inventory decisions. It investigates a real case in the home appliance industry. The main purpose of this study is to examine the optimal values of R&D effort, pricing, and inventory decisions under decentralized and centralized structures. Then, a d...

This paper presents a production-inventory model for deteriorating items with stock-dependent demand under inflation in a random planning horizon. The supplier offers the retailer fully permissible delay in payment. It is assumed that the time horizon of the business period is random in nature and follows exponential distribution with a known mean. Here learning effect is also introduced for th...

This study was designed to understand which factors influence consumer hesitation or delay in online product purchases. The study examined four groups of variables (i.e., consumer characteristics, contextual factors perceived uncertainty factors, and medium/channel innovation factors) that predict three types of online shopping hesitation (i.e., overall hesitation, shopping cart abandonment, an...

Consignment inventory (CI) is a supply chain business partnership where the customer orders to the vendor, but delays paying for goods. In CI, like the traditional systems, each member has authority over the timing and quantity of replenishments; however, these systems differ in time of transferring ownership. Previous researches showed different approaches for delay in payment in customer mana...

The purpose of this paper is to show how agent-based simulations of payment systems can be used to aid central bankers and payment system operators in thinking about the appropriate design of payment settlement systems to minimise risk and increase their efficiency. Banks, which we model as the ‘agents’, are capable of a degree of autonomy with which to respond to payment system rules and adopt...

We carried out a car-to-infrastructure (C21) and car-to-car (C2C) 4X4 multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) radio channel measurement campaign at 5.2 GHz in Lund, Sweden. This paper presents first results on pathloss, power-delay profiles, and delay-Doppler spectra in a C2C highway scenario, where both cars were traveling in opposite directions. A pathloss coefficient of 1.8 yields the best fit ...

This study proposes a new multi-item inventory model with hybrid cost parameters under a fuzzy-stochastic constraint and permissible delay in payment. The price and marketing expenditure dependent stochastic demand and the demand dependent the unit production cost are considered. Shortages are allowed and partially backordered. The main objective of this paper is to determine selling price, mar...
