Mathematical Modeling for an Integrated Inventory System with Two-level Trade Credit and Random Defectiveness in Transport

Modern business environment focuses on improving the operational efficiency of supplier, retailer and customers through integrating their inventory. Although a smoothly running integrated inventory system is ideal, the reality is to deal with imperfectness in transportation. In actual production environments, inventory items are not perfect and defectiveness occurs in random process.  In this p...

An Opinion Note: Graph Theory Approaches in Healthcare Inventory System

Graph theory is a very natural and powerful tool in combinatorial operations research. Some important operations research problems particularly inventory control problem that can be solved using graphs. A brief review of graph theory applications to problems of inventory systems are made in this paper. It suggests the possibilities which exist for improving the operational, tactical and strateg...

An Inventory System for Deteriorating Products with Ramp-Type Demand Rate under Two-Level Trade Credit Financing

An inventory system for deteriorating products, with ramp-type demand rate, under two-level trade credit policy is considered. Shortages are allowed and partially backlogged. Sufficient conditions of the existence and uniqueness of the optimal replenishment policy are provided, and an algorithm, for its determination, is proposed. Numerical examples highlight the obtained results, and sensitivi...
