Optimal capacity expansion for multi-product, multi-machine manufacturing systems with stochastic demand
We consider a discrete-time capacity expansion problem involving multiple product families, multiple machine types, and nonstationary stochastic demand. Capacity expansion decisions are made to strike an optimal balance between investment costs and lost sales costs. Motivated by current practices in the semiconductor and other high-tech industries, we assume that only minimal amounts of finishe...
متن کاملReplenishment Policies for Multi-Product Stochastic Inventory Systems with Correlated Demand and Joint-Replenishment Costs
T his study analyzes optimal replenishment policies that minimize expected discounted cost of multi-product stochastic inventory systems. The distinguishing feature of the multi-product inventory system that we analyze is the existence of correlated demand and joint-replenishment costs across multiple products. Our objective is to understand the structure of the optimal policy and use this stru...
متن کاملEvaluation of multi-product lean manufacturing systems with setup and erratic demand
The consideration of demand variability in Multi-Product Lean Manufacturing Environment (MPLME) is an innovation in production system engineering. Manufacturing systems that fail to recognise demand variability generate high Work-In-Process (WIP) and low throughput in MPLME. In response to demand variability, organisations allocate large quantities of Production Authorisation Cards (PAC). A lar...
متن کاملOptimum Aggregate Inventory for Scheduling Multi-product Single Machine System with Zero Setup Time
In this paper we adopt the common cycle approach to economic lot scheduling problem and minimize the maximum aggregate inventory. We allow the occurrence of the idle times between any two consecutive products and consider limited capital for investment in inventory. We assume the setup times are negligible. To achieve the optimal investment in inventory we first find the idle times which minimi...
متن کاملEquilibrium Capacity Expansion Under Stochastic Demand Growth
In critical energy infrastructure sectors (e.g. electric power generation, natural gas transportation, oil refining capacity) maintaining certain level of excess capacity is socially valuable (as it serves to protect against unexpected market conditions) but not necessarily compatible with the incentives for individual firms in the market. In this paper, we develop a dynamic oligopoly model wit...
