Full Screening Another View at One-Factor-at-a-Time Designs

Bettonvil, B.W.M. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2010

Textbooks on Design Of Experiments invariably start by explaining why one-factor-at-a -time (OAT) is an inferior method. Here we will show that in a model with all interactions a variant of OAT is extremely efficient, provided that we only have non-negative parameters and that there are only a...

Exact Fill Rates for (R, s, S) Inventory Control With Gamma Distributed Demand

Moors, J.J.A.; Strijbosch, L.W.G. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2001

For the familiar (R; s; S) inventory control system only approximate expressions exist for the fill rate, i.e. the fraction of demand that can be satisfied from stock.Best-known are the approximations derived from renewal theory by Tijms & Groenevelt (1984), holding under specific conditions; in...

Improved Spare Parts Inventory Management : A Case Study

Strijbosch, L.W.G.; Heuts, R.M.J.; van der Schoot, E.H.M. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1998

This paper examines the performance of two different (s,Q) inventory models for spare parts in a production plant of confectionery in The Netherlands, a simple and an advanced model. The simple approach is more or less standard: undershoot of the reorder level is not taken into account, the...
