Performance Evaluation of Stochastic Multi-Echelon Inventory Systems: A Survey
Globalization, product proliferation, and fast product innovation have significantly increased the complexities of supply chains in many industries. One of the most important advancements of supply chain management in recent years is the development of models and methodologies for controlling inventory in general supply networks under uncertainty and their widefspread applications to industry. ...
متن کاملLower Bounds for Multi-echelon Stochastic Inventory Systems
e establish lower bounds on the minimum costs of managing certain productiondistribution networks with setup costs at all stages and stochastic demands. These networks include serial, assembly, and one-warehouse multi-retailer systems. We obtain the bounds through novel cost-allocation schemes. We evaluate the bounds' performance for one-warehouse multi-retailer systems by comparing them with s...
متن کاملThree Generic Methods for Evaluating Stochastic Multi-Echelon Inventory Systems
Globalization, product proliferation and fast product innovation have significantly increased the complexities of supply chains in many industries. One of the most important advancements of supply chain management in recent years is the development of models and methodologies for controlling inventory in general supply networks under uncertainty, and their wide-spread applications to industry. ...
متن کاملProvably Near-Optimal Balancing Policies for Multi-Echelon Stochastic Inventory Control Models
We develop the first algorithmic approach to compute provably good ordering policies for a multiechelon, stochastic inventory system facing correlated, non-stationary and evolving demands over a finite horizon. Our approach is computationally efficient and guaranteed to produce a policy with total expected cost no more than twice the expected cost of an optimal policy. As part of our computatio...
متن کاملRobust multi-echelon multi-period inventory control
We consider the problem of minimizing the overall cost of a supply chain, over a possibility long horizon, under demand uncertainly which is known only crudely. Under such circumstances, the method of choice is Robust Optimization, in particular the Affinely Adjustable Robust Counterpart (AARC) method which leads to tractable deterministic optimization problems. The latter is due to a recent re...
