  2. Economic lot scheduling problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_lot_scheduling...

    The economic lot scheduling problem (ELSP) is a problem in operations management and inventory theory that has been studied by many researchers for more than 50 years. The term was first used in 1958 by professor Jack D. Rogers of Berkeley, [1] who extended the economic order quantity model to the case where there are several products to be produced on the same machine, so that one must decide ...

  3. Dynamic lot-size model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_lot-size_model

    The dynamic lot-size model in inventory theory, is a generalization of the economic order quantity model that takes into account that demand for the product varies over time. The model was introduced by Harvey M. Wagner and Thomson M. Whitin in 1958.

  4. Economic production quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_production_quantity

    While the EOQ model assumes the order quantity arrives complete and immediately after ordering, meaning that the parts are produced by another company and are ready to be shipped when the order is placed. In some literature, [citation needed] the term "economic manufacturing quantity" model (EMQ) is used for "economic production quantity" model ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inventory_theory

    Material theory (or more formally the mathematical theory of inventory and production) is the sub-specialty within operations research and operations management that is concerned with the design of production/inventory systems to minimize costs: it studies the decisions faced by firms and the military in connection with manufacturing, warehousing, supply chains, spare part allocation and so on ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver–Meal_heuristic

    To satisfy the demand for period 1, 2, 3 Producing lot 1, 2 and 3 in one setup give us an average cost: = + + The average cost =( the setup cost + the inventory holding cost of the lot required in period 2+ the inventory holding cost of the lot required in period 3) divided by 3 periods.

  7. (Q,r) model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/(Q,r)_model

    Its is a class of inventory control models that generalize and combine elements of both the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model and the base stock model. [2] The (Q,r) model addresses the question of when and how much to order, aiming to minimize total inventory costs, which typically include ordering costs, holding costs, and shortage costs.

  8. Economic batch quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_batch_quantity

    The EOQ model was developed by Ford W. Harris in 1913, but R. H. Wilson, a consultant who applied it extensively, and K. Andler are given credit for their in-depth analysis. Aggterleky described the optimal planning planes and the meaning of under and over planning, and the influence of the reduction of total cost.

  9. Operations management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operations_management

    An individual production system is usually analyzed in the literature referring to a single business; therefore it is usually improper to include in a given production system the operations necessary to process goods that are obtained by purchasing or the operations carried by the customer on the sold products, the reason being simply that ...
