The authors consider in this paper an integrated forecasting production system of the tracking type. The demand rate during a certain period depends on the demand rate of the previous period. Also, the demand rate depends on the inventory level. Items on the shelves are subject to deterioration. Using a model predictive control approach, the authors obtain the optimal production rate, the optim...

In this paper, we present a continuous time optimal control model for studying a dynamic pricing and inventory control problem for a make-to-stock manufacturing system. We consider a multiproduct capacitated, dynamic setting. We introduce a demand-based model where the demand is a linear function of the price, the inventory cost is linear, the production cost is an increasing strictly convex fu...

The main objective of this paper is to develop a Supply chain model of a volume agile manufacturing process for the deteriorating items. It is assumed that an EOQ model in which inventory is depleted not only by demand also by deterioration. In this study, a model for the producer by assuming stock dependent demand rate is developed. It is assumed that the deterioration rate follows the Weibull...

We consider a make-to-stock production-inventory model with one machine that produces stock in a buffer. The machine is subject to breakdowns. During up periods, the machine fills the buffer at a level-dependent rate α(x) > 0. During down periods, the production rate is zero, and the demand rate is either β(x) > 0 or γ(x) > 0 when the inventory level is x; which of the two demand rates applies ...

water is the most essential component for sustaining lives of humans and other living creatures. supplying potable water with adequate residual pressure is a fundamental responsibility of city administration, which they do during normal conditions. but sometimes, abnormal conditions are formed resulting pressure deficient conditions during the daily operations of water distribution networks. th...

In this work, optimal control theory is used to derive the optimal production rate in a manu‐ facturing system presenting the following features: the demand rate during a certain period depends on the demand rate of the previous period (dependent demand), the demand rate depends on the inventory level, items in inventory are subject to deterioration, and the firm can adopt a periodic or a conti...
