- Inventory Dynamics and Business Cycles: What Has Changed?
- The paper indicates the changes in inventory dynamics since the mid-1980s, which played a reinforcing agent rather than a leading role in the volatility reduction. Movements in the volatility of manufacturing output over the past three decades almost entirely reflect changes in the variability of the growth contribution of sales....

- Dynamic Programming and Inventory Management: What Has Been Learnt in the Last Generation?
- This paper presents a concise overview of the development of some of the interconnections between inventory management and dynamic programming. Inventory Management, it is often claimed, started with Wilson's economic order quantity formula, presented in his 1934 paper. Dynamic Programming, however, arrived on the scene a couple of decades later,...

- Optimal Retail Pricing And Inventory Polices With Uncertain Dynamic Demand
- We develop a dynamic demand rate model for the optimization of retail sales, solving the joint inventory and pricing problem. The inclusion of a demand rate that is dependent upon past pricing decisions, referred to as dynamic demand, is a departure from the typical approaches to the joint pricing and...

- Dynamic Inventory Management With Learning About The Demand Distribution
- A well-known result in the Bayesian inventory management literature is: if lost sales are not observed, the Bayesian optimal inventory level is larger than the myopic inventory level. It has been proven under the assumption that inventory is perishable, so the myopic inventory level is equal to the Bayesian optimal...

- Dynamic Pricing And Inventory Control With Demand Substitution: The Value Of Pricing Flexibility
- This paper studies a one-shot inventory replenishment problem with dynamic pricing. The customer arrival process is assumed either to be piecewise deterministic and correlated across time or to follow a geometric Brownian motion. Homogeneous customers have an iso-elastic demand function and do not behave strategically. For a monopolist facing a...

- Dynamic Pricing: Research Overview, Current Practices and Future Directions
- This paper provides a survey of the applications and theory of dynamic pricing mechanisms with inventory considerations. Based on the discussions with DPOSPs and the dynamic pricing literature from the fields of operations research, economics and marketing, it suggests a categorization of market environments for which distinct dynamic pricing problems...

- Dynamic Pricing for Multiple Class Deterministic Demand Fulfillment
- One considers how firm should allocate inventory to multiple classes where classes differ based on the price they pay and their willingness to incur-delay in fulfillment their demand. The problem is set in an EOQ-like environment with deterministic demand with holding costs, backorder costs, lost demand costs and setup costs....

- Dynamic Inventory Management With Financial Constraints
- Traditional inventory models focus on operational decisions. In this paper, we propose a general framework for incorporating financial states of an organization in multi-period inventory models with lost sales. This approach differs from the traditional ones in that operational decisions are correlated with and constrained by financial flows of the...

- Dynamic Pricing: Research Overview, Current Practices And Future Direction
- In recent years, one has witnessed an increased adoption of existing dynamic pricing strategies and their further development. Determining the "right" price to charge a customer for a product is a complex task. Until very recently, neither element was present; companies had limited ability to track information about their customers'...

- Integrated Workforce Capacity And Inventory Management Under Temporary Labor Supply Uncertainty
- In a manufacturing environment with volatile demand, inventory management can be coupled with dynamic capacity adjustments for handling the fluctuations more effectively. This paper considers the problem of integrated capacity and inventory management under non-stationary stochastic demand and flexible capacity uncertainty. The capacity planning problem is investigated from the workforce...

- Dynamic Inventory and Pricing Models for Competing Retailers
- This article asserts some words on the basics of economic principles. It addresses infinite-horizon models for oligopolies with competing retailers under demand uncertainty. It characterizes the equilibrium behavior which arises under simple wholesale pricing schemes. More specifically, one consider a periodic review, infinite-horizon model for a two-echelon system with a...

- Robust Inventory Management Using Tractable Replenishment Policies
- This paper proposes tractable replenishment policies for a multi-period, single product inventory control problem under ambiguous demands, that is, only limited information of the demand distributions such as mean, support and deviation measures are available. The parameters of the tractable replenishment policies were obtained by solving a deterministic optimization problem...
