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 ...

While the development and application of inventory control models of deterioration products is one of the main concerns of researchers and practitioners, most studies done in this field have focused on inventory models under fixed supply lead time assumption. In this paper, at first we study researches done in inventory control of deteriorating items and classify them based on modeling approach...

Proper inventory management is vital to achieving sustainability within a supply chain and also related company’s cash flow through the funds represented by inventory. Therefore, it necessary balance excess insufficient However, this can be difficult achieve in presence of stochastic demand because decisions must made an uncertain environment policy bears risks associated with each decision. Th...

inventory control is one of the most important issues in supply chain management. in this paper, a three-echelon production, distribution, inventory system composed of one producer, a set of wholesalers and retailers is considered. costumers' demands can be approximated by a normal distribution and the inventory policy is a kind of continuous review (r, q). in this paper, a model based on ...

this paper presents an inventory model for deteriorating items in which shortages are allowed. it is assumed that the production rate is proportional to the demand rate and greater than demand rate. the inventory model is developed by considering four different circumstances. the optimal of the problem is obtained with the help of mathematica 7 software. numerical examples are given to illustra...

in the fundamental production inventory model, in order to solve the economic production quantity (epq) we always fix both the demand quantity and the production quantity per day. but, in the real situation, both of them probably will have little disturbances every day. therefore, we should fuzzify both of them to solve the economic production quantity (q*) per cycle. using α-cut for defuzzific...
