interpretation of AC framework is not that straightforward in systems with joint manufacturing and remanufacturing. In such systems … the end-product stock contains both manufactured and remanufactured products. Remanufacturing can be used to convert the … ambiguous. In this paper we analyze a two-product system with manufacturing and remanufacturing in a deterministic setting. By …
