Customer acquaintance and the quality of products decide survival span all business sectors. Every production firm attempts to manufacture novel with attractive compatible features satisfy demands different types customers, especially a special preference for consistent kind customers. A decision-making inventory model compassing initiatives taken by customers is developed inclusion costs assoc...

Changes in wholesale supply operations at the Veterans Administration could reduce net ordering and carrying costs, inventory investment, and warehouse space. The primat-y vehicle for achieving these reductions is the economic order quantity principle--a mathematical method for determining the purchase quantity that will result in the lowest total cost to order and carry inventory. Additional r...

In an e-retailing setting, the efficient utilization of inventory, storage space, and labor is paramount to achieving high levels of customer service and company profits. To optimize the storage space and labor, a retailer will split the warehouse into two storage regions with different densities. One region is for picking customer orders and the other to hold reserve stock. As a consequence, t...

In this paper, a multi-product continuous review inventory control problem within the batch arrival queuing approach (M/M/1) is modeled to find the optimal quantities of the maximum inventory. The objective function is to minimize the total costs of ordering, holding and shortage under warehouse space and service level, and expected lost-sales shortage cost constraints from retailer and warehou...

today, the effective inventory management plays an important role in the success of the organizations in the new business environment. it is not clearly possible for the organizations that store hundreds of inventory items to economically design an inventory management policy for each inventory item separately. moreover, various inventory items may play quite different roles in the business of ...

We consider the one-warehouse multiple retailer inventory model with a submodular joint setup cost function. The objective of this model is to determine an inventory replenishment policy that minimizes the long-run average system cost over an infinite time horizon. Although the optimal policy for this problem is still unknown, a class of easy-to-implement power-of-two policies are 98% effective...

Any industry has its own supply chain where it is not necessary to have all stages in the supply chain and the optimal o rdering policies of those indiv idual stages may be different. This paper p resents an extension of two–level supply chain inventory model d iscussed in related works. The main consideration of this paper is to determine the optimal ordering policy according to inventory and ...

Based on an actual dataset of college human resources, we analyzed the data warehouse technologies and combined them with the pracical work. The snowflake structure has been described about a data warehouse of university human resource and the data warehouse has been constructed. This paper reduces and categorizes features by explorative data analysis. When the data warehouse had built and appl...
