In this work the uncapacitated dynamic lot-sizing problem is considered. Demands are deterministic and production costs consist of convex costs that arise from economic production functions plus set-up costs. We formulate the problem as a mixed integer, non-linear programming problem and obtain...

In this work, we investigate two groundwater inventory management schemes with multiple users in a dynamic game-theoretic structure: (i) under the centralized management scheme, users are allowed to pump water from a common aquifer with the supervision of a social planner, and (ii) under the...

In this study, we analyze an inventory system facing stochastic external demands and an autonomous supply (independent return flow) in the presence of fixed disposal costs and positive lead times under a continuous review replenishment-disposal policy. We derive the analytical expressions of the...

We consider dynamic pricing of perishable assets in the presence of price-sensitive renewal demand processes. Unlike the existing works in the literature, we explicitly incorporate non-negligible price change costs which reflects the revenue management practice more realistically. These costs...

In this paper, we present a normative study that describes the impact of discharging decisions in the face of resource shortages. We develop a model that represents the dynamics of a health care unit. Then, to capture the essence of discharge decisions, we consider discharge policies that...

We consider the dynamic lot sizing problem for a warm/cold process where the process can be kept warm at a unit variable cost for the next period if more than a prespecified quantity has been produced. Exploiting the optimal production plan structures, we develop nine rule-based forward solution...
