A Dynamic Inventory Model with Random Replenishment Quantities
A periodic-review, random-demand inventory model is analyzed under the assumption that replenishment quantities are random fractions of the amounts ordered. Results of a previous study of a single-period model are generalized to form an easily computed heuristic adaptation of the (s, S) policy for use in this environment. The heuristic is based on the simple practice of scaling down pipeline in...
متن کاملInventory Systems with Advance Demand Information and Random Replenishment Times
Advance demand information, when used effectively, improves the performance of production/inventory systems. The extent of improvement however depends on certain factors. We investigate the influence of random supply lead times on a single-stage inventory system with advance demand information. It is found that the supply lead time variability diminishes the benefits of advance demand information.
متن کاملA multi-item inventory model with random replenishment intervals, fuzzy costs and resources under Possibility and Necessity Measure
This paper presents a multi-product multi-period inventory problem with random replenishment intervals and fuzzy costs under space and shortage level constraints. Since the costs (purchasing, holding and backordering) related to inventory system are often imprecise and the replenishment intervals are random in real life, the proposed model is also fuzzy-random Here, the replenishment intervals ...
متن کاملA Dynamic Distribution Model with Warehouse and Customer Replenishment Requirements
This paper addresses a multiperiod integrated model that plans deliveries to customers based upon inventories (at warehouse and customer locations) and vehicle routes. The model determines replenishment quantities and intervals at the warehouse, and distribution lots and delivery routes at customer locations. We investigate coordination of customer and warehouse replenishment decisions and illu...
متن کاملA Reinforcement Learning Approach for Inventory Replenishment in Vendor-Managed Inventory Systems With Consignment Inventory
The use of VMI at Wal-Mart on a large scale has attracted a great deal of attention in the industrial world. In a VMI program, the supplier assumes control of the inventory management for one or more retailers (Fry, 2002). The supplier monitors the inventory level at the retailers and makes the decisions related to the quantities of replenishment and the timing of shipments to the retailers. It...
