An integrated production and inventory model to dampen upstream demand variability in the supply chain

Article Abstract:

The application of the queue theory for optimization of the Markov processes, to develop an integrated model for inventory management, is described. The applicability of this model for supply chain management in manufacturing industries is discussed.
