DOWNLOAD EBOOKApart from a thorough exploration of all the important concepts, this volume includes over 75 algorithms, ready for putting into practice. The book also contains numerous hands-on implementations of selected algorithms to demonstrate applications in realistic settings. Readers are assumed to have a sound understanding of calculus, introductory matrix analysis, and intermediate statistics, but otherwise the book is self-contained. Suitable for graduates and undergraduates in mathematics and engineering, in particular operations research, statistics, and computer science.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book examines inventory and production strategies that can reduce unexpected breakdown costs. It highlights different EPQ models to deal with such problems, providing optimal value derivations for decision variables. It provides proofs for concavity or convexity of objective functions. The chapters also include numerical examples for all the developed mathematical models. Imperfect Inventory Systems: Inventory and Production Management and Breakdown should be useful for professionals working on supply chains, but also researchers in operations research and inventory management.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book discusses supply chain management, focusing on developments within modelling the dynamic behaviour of the supply chain. Aimed at postgraduate students, researchers and practitioners, this book provides an in-depth knowledge of the dynamics of supply chains. Business trends such as the globalisation process and the increase of competition across many industrial sectors have forced companies to concentrate on their core competences and to outsource those activities in which they do not excel. As a consequence, companies no longer produce and distribute their goods in isolation, but being part of a supply chain or supply network, i.e. a set of interrelated companies who ultimately deliver the goods and services to the final customer. Despite the prevalence of supply chains as the primary form of production and distribution, their performance can be seriously hampered by the complex dynamics resulting from the collaboration and coordination (or lack thereof) among their members. This book provides the reader with modelling tools to understand, analyse and improve the dynamic behaviour of supply chains. It assembles seminal works on supply chain models and recent developments on the topic in order to provide a comprehensive, unified vision of the field for researchers and practitioners who wish to grasp the challenges of supply chain management. Aside presenting the main elements, equations and performance indicators governing the dynamics of a supply chain, and the book addresses issues such as the effect of timely and accurately sharing the information across members, the influence of restrictions on the productive capacities of their members, or the impact of the variability of the lead times, among others. Furthermore, more complex supply chain structures such as non-serial supply networks or closed-loop supply chains are modelled and discussed. Relevant managerial insights regarding the causes of supply chain underperformance, as well as avenues to improve their efficiency can be extracted from the resulting models.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book considers new analytics and AI approaches in the areas of inventory control, logistics, and supply chain management. It provides valuable insights for the retailers and managers to improve business operations and make more realistic and better decisions. It also offers a number of smartly designed strategies related to inventory control and supply chain management for the optimal ordering and delivery policies. The book further uses detailed models and AI computing approaches for demand forecasting to planning optimization and digital execution tracking. One of its key features is use of real-life examples, case studies, practical models to ensure adoption of new solutions, data analytics, and AI-lead automation methodologies are included.The book can be utilized by retailers and managers to improve business operations and make more accurate and realistic decisions. The AI-based solution, agnostic assessment, and strategy will support the companies for better alignment and inventory control and capabilities to create a strategic road map for supply chain and logistics. The book is also useful for postgraduate students, researchers, and corporate executives. It addresses novel solutions for inventory to real-world supply chain and logistics that retailers, practitioners, educators, and scholars will find useful. It provides the theoretical and applicable subject matters for the senior undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, practitioners, and professionals in the area of artificial intelligent computing and its applications in inventory and supply chain management, inventory control, and logistics.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume originates from two workshops, both focusing on themes that are reflected in the title of the volume. The first workshop took place at Eindhoven University of Technology, April 24-26, 2001, on the occasion of the University granting a doctorate honoris causa to Profes sor John A. Buzacott. The second workshop was held on June 15, 2002 at Cornell University (preceding the annual INFORMSjMSOM Confer ence), honoring John's retirement and his lifetime contributions. Each of the two workshops consisted of about a dozen technical presentations. The objective of the volume, however, is not to simply publish the proceedings of the two workshops. Rather, our objective is to put to gether a select set of articles, each organized into a well-written chapter, focusing on a timely topic. Collected into a single volume, these chapters aim to serve as a useful reference for researchers and practitioners alike, and also as reading materials for graduate courses or seminars.
