Demand patterns for products with seasonality and or short life-cycles do not follow a clear discernible pattern (to allow predictive time-series modeling of demand) for individual sales events or seasons due to such factors as considerable demand volatility, product promotions, and unforeseen...

Managing the information flow within a big organization is a challenging task. Moreover, in a distributed decision-making process conflicting objectives occur. In this paper, artificial adaptive agents are used to analyze this problem. The decision makers are implemented as Classifier Systems,...

This paper examines the effect of salvage market on strategic technology choice and capacity investment decision of two firms that compete on the amount of output they produce under demand uncertainty. A game theoretic model applies such that in the first stage firms choose their production...

This paper examines the effect of information sharing on supply chain configuration where the market characterized by demand uncertainty. A dynamic multi-stage game theoretic model with incomplete information is employed to capture the sequence of events. Our supply chain consists of two...

In this paper we investigate the convexity of the annual total cost function for the Hadley & Whitin (1963) continuous review (Q,R) inventory model with backorders and fixed lead-time, when the reorder point is non-negative and the cost per unit backordered is used to calculate the expected...

In this paper we investigate the minimization process of the exact cost function for a continuous review (Q,R) inventory model with non-negative reorder point and fixed lead-time. Backorders are allowed and the unit shortage cost is used to determine the expected annual shortage cost. Provided...

This thesis examines, quantifies, and ranks the influence of various factors of activity, structure, and intensity on passenger transport energy consumption to assess the progression of energy efficiency. For this purpose, four logarithmic mean Divisia index (LMDI) decomposition analyses are...
