Effectiveness of (R,Q) policies in one‐warehouse multiretailer systems with deterministic demand and backlogging

Consider a distribution system with a central warehouse and multiple retailers. Customer demand arrives at each of the retailers continuously at a constant rate. The retailers replenish their inventories from the warehouse which in turn orders from an outside supplier with unlimited stock. There are economies of scale in replenishing the inventories at both the warehouse and the retail level. Stockouts at the retailers are backlogged. The system incurs holding and backorder costs. The objective is to minimize the long‐run average total cost in the system. This paper studies the cost effectiveness of (R, Q) policies in the above system. Under an (R, Q) policy, each facility orders a fixed quantity Q from its supplier every time its inventory position reaches a reorder point R. It is shown that (R, Q) policies are at least 76% effective. Numerical examples are provided to further illustrate the cost effectiveness of (R, Q) policies. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Applying a bootstrap approach for setting reorder points in military supply systems

This paper develops and applies a nonparametric bootstrap methodology for setting inventory reorder points and a simple inequality for identifying existing reorder points that are unreasonably high. We demonstrate that an empirically based bootstrap method is both feasible and calculable for large inventories by applying it to the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force General Account, an inventory consisting of $20–30 million of stock for 10–20,000 different types of items. Further, we show that the bootstrap methodology works significantly better than the existing methodology based on mean days of supply. In fact, we demonstrate performance equivalent to the existing system with a reduced inventory at one‐half to one‐third the cost; conversely, we demonstrate significant improvement in fill rates and other inventory performance measures for an inventory of the same cost. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

动圈式永磁直线直流电机的精英保留多种群遗传优化算法

为了实现陆基无人机电磁弹射器高机动性及其直线弹射电机的高功率密度,针对动圈式永磁直线直流电机,提出精英保留的多种群遗传算法(Multi-Population Genetic Algorithm with Elite Retention, MPGAER)的电机最大功率密度优化方法。以磁通密度和电流密度为约束条件,利用其搜索能力强、收敛速度快的特点优化电机的结构参数,并与磁路法初始设计结果和传统遗传算法优化结果进行比较。结果表明:与磁路法初始设计相比,MPGAER能使电机质量减少6.25%,功率密度提高10%,电机动态性能得到提高;MPGAER优化设计的电机功率密度高于遗传算法设计结果,所提方法有效地解决了在优化过程中出现易收敛于局部最优点和寻优效果差的问题。     

An optimal recursive method for various inventory replenishment models with increasing demand and shortages

We establish various inventory replenishment policies to solve the problem of determining the timing and number of replenishments. We then analytically compare various models, and identify the best alternative among them based on minimizing total relevant costs. Furthermore, we propose a simple and computationally efficient optimal method in a recursive fashion, and provide two examples for illustration. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
