A PERISHABLE PRODUCT INVENTORY SYSTEM OPERATING IN A RANDOM ENVIRONMENT

Perishable Inventory System with a Finite Population and Repeated Attempts

A two-commodity perishable inventory system

We present a two-commodity perishable stochastic inventory system under continuous review at a service facility with a finite waiting room. The maximum storage capacity for the i–th item is fixed as Si (i = 1, 2). We assume that a demand for the i–th commodity is of unit size. The arrival instants of customers to the service station constitutes a Poisson process with parameter λ. The customer d...

Two substitutable perishable product disaster inventory systems

A disaster inventory system is considered in which two substitutable items are stored for disaster management. In the event of disaster management, a particular product may become stock-out and the situation warrants that a demand for the particular product during its stock-out period may be substituted with another available similar product in the inventory. From the utility point of view, con...

A single server perishable inventory system with N additional options for service

This article presents a perishable (s; S) inventory system under continuous review at a service facility in which a waiting hall for customers is of nite size M. The arrival instants of customers to the service station constitutes a Poisson process. The life time of each items is assumed to be exponential. All arriving customers demand the rst "essential" service, whereas only some of them dema...
