  2. 1. Coordinated control of Multi-Stage Inventory System

    Author : Johan Marklund; Produktionsekonomi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inventory systems; multi-echelon; stochastic; decentralization; centralized control; distribution system; divergent system; echelon-stock; installation-stock.;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on three scientific papers dealing with different models for coordinated control of multi-stage inventory systems. The ability to control multi-echelon inventory systems, is paramount for reducing tied up capital and inventory costs in large distribution systems. READ MORE

  4. 2. Coordinated Routing : applications in location and inventory management

    Author : Henrik Andersson; Peter Värbrand; Marielle Christiansen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optimization; coordinated routing; inventory routing; ship routing; location; decision support; mathematical modeling; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori;

    Abstract : Almost everywhere, routing plays an important role in everyday life. This thesis consists of three parts, each studying different applications where routing decisions are coordinated with other decisions. A common denominator in all applications is that an intelligent utilization of a fleet of vehicles is crucial for the performance of the system. READ MORE

  5. 3. Modeling Lateral Transshipments and Perishable Items in Inventory Systems

    Author : Fredrik Olsson; Produktionsekonomi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Technological sciences; Teknik; Dynamic programming ; Inventory ; Perishable items ; Lateral transshipments ; Pooling ; Batch ordering ; Optimal policies ; Stochastic ;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with two main areas in the field of stochastic inventory theory; ateral transshipments and perishable items. In the first part of this thesis we give an introduction to the field of inventory theory, and discuss some previous literature connected to the research presented in this thesis. READ MORE

  6. 4. Real-time Allocation Decisions in Multi-echelon Inventory Control

    Author : Christian Howard; Produktionsekonomi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inventory; Multi-echelon; Real-time information; Stochastic; Stock allocation;

    Abstract : Inventory control is a crucial activity for many companies. Given the recent advances in information technology, there have never been greater opportunities for coordinated inventory control across supply chain facilities. READ MORE

  7. 5. System Expansion and Allocation in Life Cycle Assessment With Implications for Wastepaper Management

    Author : Tomas Ekvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modelling; paper recycling; waste incineration; environmental life cycle assessment; LCI methodology; allocation; waste management; system expansion; system boundaries; life cycle inventory analysis;

    Abstract : The choice of system boundaries and allocation methods can have decisive effects on the results and conclusions of a life cycle assessment (LCA). System expansion makes it possible to model the indirect effects of a decision; however, this modelling is often based on inaccurate assumptions. READ MORE
