We present inventory models to schedule an imperfect manufacturing process where a proportion of the items are … defective. The proportion is known; and the production is followed by a 100% inspection. The manufacturer implements a rework … production rate, and also the selection of the rework process itself, which can be asynchronous and synchronous. Under the …

We study energy consumption and inventory control in a make-to-stock manufacturing system. We consider a Markovian …

This paper presents a generic modeling framework to simultaneously decide about production quantities and maintenance … for each specific type of product, a lot-sizing problem occurs. In addition it is assumed that production causes intensive … wear and tear. For this reason frequent maintenance activities need to be coordinated with the production operations in …

production system in terms of either delivery time or setup related costs. Based on a queueing network, a model is developed for … into account various sources of uncertainty, both in demand as well as in production characteristics. In addition, the … the debate on the convexity between lot size and lead time in a complex production environment. We show that differential …

supply chains. This paper considers a manufacturing system in which a single manufacturer procures raw materials from a …'s production cycle is imperfect where the production uptime and cycle time are not exact integer multiples of the shipment interval … procurement and production. It is found that the total cost under imperfect matching is always lower than or equal to that under …

This paper investigates the dynamic inventory model for the case when production in a period is restricted to a finite … set of specified values. The model allows the production rate to be any value in the set {0, P, 2P, ..., mP}, where m is a … nonnegative integer. It is assumed that the setup cost is paid only once for a production block and the holding cost is …
