Multi-stage newsboy problem: A dynamic model
The newsboy problem is a well-known operations research model. Its various extensions have been applied to managing capacity and evaluating advanced orders in manufacturing, retail and service industries. This paper focuses on a dynamic, continuous-time generalization of the single-period newsboy problem. The problem is characterized by a number of the newsboys whose operations are organized an...
متن کاملThe effect of advertising on the distribution-free newsboy problem
Advertising is very important for the newsboy problem because the shelf-life of the newsboy product is short and advertisingmay increase sales to avoid overstocking. In this paper, models to study the effect of advertising are developed for the distribution-free newsboy problem where only the mean and variance of the demand are known. As in Khouja and Robbins (2003), it is assumed that the mean...
متن کاملThe value of information in the multi-item newsboy problem
The multi-item newsboy problem is used to determine the value of two types of incomplete information, global information and product-mix information. It is shown that this value depends on the number of products, the existence of a budget restriction and the degree of substitutability. ? 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
متن کاملUncertain random newsboy problem
The classic newsboy problem assumes the market demand to be a random variable. However, when the decision maker wants to expand the market share, he has to provide a subjective estimate of new market demand distribution due to the lack of historical data. Thus, randomness and uncertainty simultaneously appear in a newsboy problem. The aim of this work is to extend the analysis of the classic ne...
متن کاملAn Approach for Solving the Multi-product Newsboy Problem
We propose a solution methodology for the multi-product newsboy model with constraints that is based on quadratic programming and a triangular presentation of the area under the cumulative probability distribution function of the demand. The methodology allows easier application of this important inventory control model that could be of particular interest in supply chain management as well as...
