In the civil aviation market, overbooking has been a common approach for airlines to recover losses caused by cancelation and no-shows. However, overbooking would bring even more uncertainty into the system sometimes. As a solution, a new policy named transference is being implemented among...

This paper evaluates the joint impact of exclusive channels and revenue sharing on suppliers and retailers in a hybrid duopoly common retailer and exclusive channel model. The model bridges the gap in the literature on hybrid multichannel supply chains with bilateral complementary products and...

Although the Lagrangian method is a powerful dual search method in integer programming, it often fail to identify the optimal solution of the primal problem. In this paper, a quasi dual formulation is proposed for bounded integer programming. This formulation possesses an asymptotic strong...

In this article, we study a multi-period multi-product inventory control problem. In the problem, there are N inventory classes which can be substituted for one another to satisfy the demand for a given reservation class (perhaps at a cost). The objective of management is to jointly determine...

This paper concerns the joint management problem of production control and dynamic pricing to balance the finished goods inventory and market demand in a make-to-stock manufacturing system using a long-run average profit criterion. In the system, the production rate is random, with a...
