A Polynomial Time Algorithm for a Deterministic Joint Pricing and Inventory Model

Heuvel, W. van den; Wagelmans, A.P.M. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), ERIM … - 2003

In this paper we consider the uncapacitated economic lot-size model, where demand is a deterministic function of price. In the model a single price need to be set for all periods. The objective is to find an optimal price and ordering decisions simultaneously. In 1973 Kunreuther and Schrage...

Managing Supplier Involvement in New Product Development: A Multiple-Case Study

Echtelt, F.E.A. van; Wynstra, J.Y.F.; Weele, A.J. van; … - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), ERIM … - 2006

Existing studies of supplier involvement in new product development have mainly focused on project-related short-term processes and success-factors. This study validates and extends an existing exploratory framework, which comprises both long-term strategic processes and short-term operational...

Economic Lot-Sizing Games

Heuvel, W. van den; Borm, P.; Hamers, H.J.M. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), ERIM … - 2004

In this paper we introduce a new class of OR games: economic lot-sizing (ELS) games. There are a number of retailers that have a known demand for a fixed number of periods. To satisfy demand the retailers order products at the same manufacturer. By placing joint orders instead of individual...

A Geometric Algorithm to solve the NI/G/NI/ND Capacitated Lot-Sizing Problem in O(T^2) Time

Heuvel, W. van den; Wagelmans, A.P.M. - Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM), 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...
