In this paper we consider a transportation system consisting of a carrier with capacity Q \le \infty , operating between two terminals. Passengers arrive at these terminals according to independent Poisson processes and are transported by the carrier from one terminal to the other terminal....

We consider the problem of precise estimation of service-level measures in multistage production-inventory systems when the system is managed for high levels of service. Precisely because the service level is high, stockouts, large backorders, and unfilled demands are rare and thus difficult to...
