    Joint Pricing and Inventory Control of Deteriorating Items under Conditions of Finite Production, Partial Backlogging and Lost Sale

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Rashidi, Mohammad (Author) ; Haji, Alireza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    When demand for a product is price sensitive, pricing and lot sizing decisions are interdependent. Similarly, when a product is highly perishable, the demand may need to be backlogged to avoid costs due to deterioration, i.e., perishability and backlogging are complementary conditions.In this thesis we stablish two economic production quantity models for deteriorating items under conditions of finite production, exponential decay and partial backordering and lost sale. Two joint pricing inventory control models are developed for the problem by employing different modeling approaches over an infinite planning horizon. In two models, customer is viewed to be impatient and the fraction of the...

    Inventory Management in Two-Echelon Chain with Shortage

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Sodachi, Majid (Author) ; Haji, Alireza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The thesis has considered a two-echelon supply chain which consists of one central warehouse and multiple retailers. Assume all retailers and the warehouse follow a continuous review inventory model. The costumer’s demand comes to retailers in a Poisson process. The retailers replenish their stocks from the warehouse in an (S-1, S) inventory control policy and the warehouse replenishes its stocks in an (r, Q) inventory control policy from an external supplier with an infinite capacity. It may be more representative to model stockouts as lost sales when the retailers are in a competitive market or in monopoly markets all demand will be backorder. Therefore, if the market situation goes...

    A Markov Decision Processes Model for Supplier Selection in Supply-Chain Management Under Uncertainty

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Milani, Hamed (Author) ; Haji, Alireza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    There are several types of uncertainty in supply chains that cause some difficulties in the planning of a supply chain. Uncertainty on the supply side can cause interruptions in the quality, quantity, or delivery time of orders. To avoid such interruptions, retailers usually contract with two different suppliers for a common good. In this setting, one of the suppliers has higher reliability and higher price, while the other supplier offers a lower price but has a lower level of reliability. In other words, to ensure a lower level of uncertainty, retailers have to pay more. This is one of the main tradeoffs in the dual sourcing strategy. In this thesis, we consider a two-echelon supply chain...

    Abstract
    Although inventory control under discrete demand in dynamic quantities and time intervals are very common in reality, existing literature has largely ignored them. In this thesis, we investigate the inventory control decisions in a two echelon supply chain. The vendor supplies a product to several retailers, buying discrete quantities in pre-determined time intervals. The order quantity and order cycles for each retailer can be different from others. We have developed a new efficient algorithm to find the optimal ordering policy involves the scheduling and the order quantity of vendor to his supplier to minimize his cost function in infinite time horizon. Moreover, we have designed a revenue...
