Web Auctions in Europe
Pouloudi, A.; Paarlberg, J.; van Heck, van Heck, H.W.G.M. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), … - 2001
This paper argues that a better understanding of the business model of web auctions can be reached if we adopt a broader view and provide empirical research from different sites. In this paper the business model of web auctions is refined into four dimensions. These are auction model, motives,...

Applying Revenue Management to the Reverse Supply Chain
Fleischmann, Moritz; Ferguson, Ferguson, M.; Souza, … - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), … - 2008
We study the disposition decision for product returns in a closed-loop supply chain. Motivated by the asset recovery process at IBM, we consider two disposition alternatives. Returns may be either refurbished for reselling or dismantled for spare parts. Reselling a refurbished unit typically...

A Geometric Algorithm to solve the NI/G/NI/ND Capacitated Lot-Sizing Problem in O(T^2) Time
van den Heuvel, Wilco; Wagelmans, Wagelmans, A.P.M. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), … - 2003
In this paper we consider the capacitated lot-sizing problem (CLSP) with linear costs. It is known that this problem is NP-hard, but there exist special cases that can be solved in polynomial time. We derive a backward algorithm, based on the forward algorithm by Chen et al. (1994), to solve the...

A note on a multi-period profit maximizing model for retail supply chain management
van den Heuvel, Wilco; Wagelmans, Wagelmans, A.P.M. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), … - 2003
In this note we present an efficient exact algorithm to solve the joint pricing and inventory problem for which Bhattacharjee and Ramesh (2000) proposed two heuristics. Our algorithm appears to be superior also in terms of computation time. Furthermore, we point out several mistakes in the paper...
