This paper describes a stochastic inventory model where the control review system is periodic; demand contains auto-correlated components; and categorized as a lost sale case. The authors propose a simulationbased optimization based on using a combination of simulated annealing, pattern search, and ranking and selection methods to search and approximate solutions to this problem. Simulated anne...

Learning by doing attributes cost reductions of a technology to cumulative investment and thus experience. This paper argues that the additional dimension of investment volume growth rate has to be considered. This growth rate has historically been limited in most sectors, thus allowing for feedback in the learning process. When market growth is below the ‘optimal’ rate, the marginal value of a...

The main business of an investment company is to hold and manage securities for investment purposes. In today competitive market Pricing and its methodology are complicated motions. It is very important to define a price that can prevail the competition in an open and free market. In order to define the price certain circumstances should be considered. In the academic arena there have been seve...

Since the early 1990s, there has been a growing understanding that supply chain management should be built around information sharing and collaboration among supply chain partners. The emergence of RFID technology is expected to revolutionize many of the collaborative supply chain processes and to empower new collaboration scenarios, such as anti-counterfeiting, product recall and reverse logis...

Online publishers rely on real-time bidding (RTB) markets to sell their remnant inventory and increasingly to command higher prices for “premium” content. However, content providers have lagged advertisers historically in the sophistication of their pricing models, as evidenced by the large increase in demand-side platforms without corresponding investment on the sell-side. Informed advertisers...

This research considers a fresh-product supply chain consisting of a single-buyer, a single-supplier for deteriorating products where the market demand is dependent on the retail price, fresh rate, and remaining rate. Firstly, in a competitive model, the primary decision variables (i.e., the supplier's wholesale price and preservation-technology investment and also buyer's order quantity and re...

The successful implementation of electronic congestion pricing is highly dependent on the identification and installation of appropriate technology. Several technologies exist in the market that differs according to vehicle tag type, transponder type, security strategy, cost and operating radio frequency. There are trade-offs with each technology, and very few studies presently exist that evalu...

Sustainable inventory management is a common issue for any industry. This proposed study explains representation of mathematical modelling maintaining sustainability through the preservation technology deteriorating products and trade-credit strategy sustainable marketing. Based on actual life circumstances, it found that demand deteriorated influenced by increasing frequency advertising techno...

This paper analyzes optimal and non-optimal regulation of environmental externalities with investment in technology and uncertainty about the severity of environmental damages. Investment creates the potential for technology spillovers so that optimal regulation must address externalities from both emissions and investment. Despite these multiple externalities and uncertainty, we show that an o...
