Analysis and Algorithms for Service Parts Supply Chains (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Services requiring parts has become a $1.5 trillion business annually worldwide, creating a tremendous incentive to manage the logistics of these parts efficiently by making planning and operational decisions in a rational and rigorous manner. This book provides a broad overview of modeling approaches and solution methodologies for addressing service parts inventory problems found in high-powered technology and aerospace applications. The text may be used in a variety of courses for first-year graduate students or senior undergraduates, as well as for practitioners, requiring only a background in stochastic processes and optimization. It will serve as an excellent reference for key mathematical concepts and a guide to modeling a variety of multi-echelon service parts planning and operational problems.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"This book, covering ten chapters, presents the state of the art relating to service parts inventory systems and supply chain algorithms. ... Each chapter contains a set of problems for the reader to explore the algorithmic tools presented in this book, which concludes with a very useful set of references and index." (Efstratios Rappos, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1080, 2006)

"The contents of the book reflect some of the research interests and experiences of the author related to the mathematical study of 'service parts systems'. ... to make the reader aware of a larger set of materials on the topic, he provides an extensive bibliography on the subject. A good complement is an interesting list of exercises that seek to show first applications to oriented cases." (Antonio Gómez-Corral, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2007 c)
