Developing Inventory Control Policies with No Ordering Costs in Two-Echelon Supply Chains, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Haji, Rasoul (Supervisor)
Abstract
This dissertation attempts to develop four inventory control models for two-echelon supply chains. For the all models, the retailers face Poisson demand and lost sales during a stockout. There is also a time-dependent holding cost and a cost per unit of lost sales. However, there is no (or negligible) cost associated with placing an order.
For the first model, we consider a two-echelon inventory system with one central warehouse and a number of retailers. The central warehouse applies (R, Q) policy and retailers apply base stock policy. In this model, we approximate the arrival process of the central warehouse and obtain the total cost of the system, as well as the optimal solution....
