Models for warehouse management: classification and examples

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to analyze warehousing systems and develop a classification of warehouse management problems. In line with this, several types of warehousing systems were examined. A hierarchy of decision problems associated with the establishment of warehousing system was analyzed. Results indicated that higher warehouse service levels and shorter response times lead to additional savings for the logistic chain.

Lot sizes in a capacity constrained facility with available initial inventories

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to analyze a heuristic technique for determine what items and what order sizes to produce in a capacity constrained facility. The available inventories decided the order of the production for avoiding shortages. In addition, the method utilizes conventional objective function to reduce setup costs and inventory holding costs. An algorithm was used to determine solutions to other related problems.

Managing supply chain inventories: a multiple retailer, one warehouse, multiple supplier model

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to analyze a near-optimal (s,Q)-type inventory policy for a production and distribution network supporting multiple suppliers. The suppliers replenish a central warehouse that distributes to several retailers. The model accommodates a seamless integration of component to examine simple supply chains. A simulation of the model was then developed using the SLAM II simulation computer language.
