Reinforcement learning for joint pricing, lead-time and scheduling decisions in make-to-order systems

Li, Xueping; Wang, Jiao; Sawhney, Rapinder - In: European Journal of Operational Research 221 (2012) 1, pp. 99-109

The paper investigates a problem faced by a make-to-order (MTO) firm that has the ability to reject or accept orders, and set prices and lead-times to influence demands. Inventory holding costs for early completed orders, tardiness costs for late delivery orders, order rejection costs,...

Computing Bid Prices for Revenue Management Under Customer Choice Behavior

Chaneton, Juan M.; Vulcano, Gustavo - In: Manufacturing & Service Operations Management 13 (2011) 4, pp. 452-470

We consider a choice-based, network revenue management (RM) problem in a setting where heterogeneous customers consider an assortment of products offered by a firm (e.g., different flight times, fare classes, and/or routes). Individual choice decisions are modeled through an ordered list of...

Managing a Customer Following a Target Reverting Policy

Gavirneni, Srinagesh; Tayur, Sridhar - In: Manufacturing & Service Operations Management 1 (1999) 2, pp. 157-173

We consider a stochastic, capacitated production-inventory model in which the customer provides information about the expected timing of future orders to the supplier. We allow for randomness in customer order arrivals as well as the quantity demanded, but work under the assumption that the...
