5. 3. Modeling pooling and perishable items in inventory systems

   Author : Patrik Tydesjö; Produktionsekonomi; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; two level; perishable items; Inventory control; newsboy model; emergency supply; stochastic; lateral transshipments; upstream customer demand.;

   Abstract : This thesis is built on three papers considering different problems in inventory control. The first paper considers a two-location newsboy model with the possibility of making lateral transshipments when needed. Usually, when considering newsboy models it is assumed that all demand in a period occurs at once. READ MORE
