With effect of consumer factor considered, a model for dynamic pricing of perishable products is proposed. By this model, we obtained a property of the value function: marginal value is a decreasing function of the capacity and an increasing function of the consumer factor. Basing on this property, we proposed the following pricing strategy: according to the regions that the perishable products...

This paper presents a wireless mesh network testbed based on ESP8266 devices using painlessMesh library. It evaluates its feasibility and potential effectiveness as solution to monitor perishable goods, such fresh fruit vegetables, which are often stored transported inside refrigerated containers. Performance testing experiments with different numbers of nodes traffic loads message payload size...

This paper, considers Network Failure Manufacturing System (NFPMS) and production control policy of unreliable multi-machines, multi-products with perishable items. The production control policy is based on the Hedging Point Policy (HPP). The important point in the simulation of this system is assumed that the customers who receive perishable item are placed in priority queue of the customers w...

A retailer is endowed with a finite inventory of a non-perishable product. Demand for this product is driven by a price-sensitive Poisson process that depends on an unknown parameter, θ; a proxy for the market size. If θ is high then the retailer can take advantage of a large market charging premium prices, but if θ is small then price markdowns can be applied to encourage sales. The retailer h...
