Download or read book Stochastic Modeling and Optimization of Manufacturing Systems and Supply Chains written by J. George Shanthikumar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 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.

Download or read book Dynamic Scheduling Policies in Production inventory Systems with Returns Or Two Classes of Demands written by Jieling Han and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major concern in operations and supply chain management research has been to determine optimal policies to minimize costs in production and inventory systems. This dissertation consists of two applications of production-inventory systems motivated by the real world observations. The first model is motivated by a high-tech company data center server inventory control process. The firm has internalized the production process and faces server returns at the same time. There are demands for both new and used products. Returned servers can be used to serve the demand for use products directly, or be remanufactured into new condition by the same production capacity. Unmet demands are lost. The objective is to determine the optimal scheduling policy that minimizes the discounted total cost. We model the system with a production-inventory model with returns and show the optimal production inventory policy is of base stock type. Efficient heuristics are proposed and the base model is extended to scenarios that better described the real world situation. These scenarios include unmet demand are backordered, bulk demands and returns depending on the demands. The second model analyzes a model of a continuous-time production-inventory system with a shared server serving two demands. Unsatisfied demands are backordered and standard holding and penalty costs apply at each inventory location. The objective is to determine the optimal scheduling policy that minimizes the discounted total cost. The distinguishing feature of our model is that the two demand classes differ in their variability characteristics. The motivation for analyzing such a system is driven by our observations in many real-life contexts where such a difference is reported to exist. Very briefly, practical examples of why the variability of two demand processes, served by the same capacity, may differ include (1) inherent differences in the predictability of the demand, (2) some customers' spiky purchasing pattern influenced by low prices during promotions, (3) mixing emergency and scheduled demands, and (4) the nature of two different markets. Our results allow us to shed some light on implications for managers in such circumstances.

Download or read book Production Planning by Mixed Integer Programming written by Yves Pochet and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-19 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a comprehensive modeling, reformulation and optimization approach for solving production planning and supply chain planning problems, covering topics from a basic introduction to planning systems, mixed integer programming (MIP) models and algorithms through the advanced description of mathematical results in polyhedral combinatorics required to solve these problems. Based on twenty years worth of research in which the authors have played a significant role, the book addresses real life industrial production planning problems (involving complex production structures with multiple production stages) using MIP modeling and reformulation approach. The book provides an introduction to MIP modeling and to planning systems, a unique collection of reformulation results, and an easy to use problem-solving library. This approach is demonstrated through a series of real life case studies, exercises and detailed illustrations. Review by Jakub Marecek (Computer Journal) The emphasis put on mixed integer rounding and mixing sets, heuristics in-built in general purpose integer programming solvers, as well as on decompositions and heuristics using integer programming should be praised... There is no doubt that this volume offers the present best introduction to integer programming formulations of lotsizing problems, encountered in production planning. (2007)

Download or read book Modelling Supply Chain Dynamics written by Jose M. Framinan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 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.
