Single and Multi-Period Inventory Control Models

Abstract

Nowadays, companies have to provide the most suitable product to the customer's demands in the fastest way with minimum cost in order to be able to stand competitive conditions and to be placed in the market. All of these factors have encouraged firms to focus on the design and planning of well-organized inventory systems that allow the right amount of product to be distributed right at the right price. Numerous studies have been carried out in the literature, especially on inventory control problems in recent years. In this study, inventory control problems are collected in two main topics; single and multi period. The studies are summarized and categorized by considering the components such as demand type (deterministic or stochastic), number of products (single or multi product), system structure (single or multi stage), product life (unlimited shelf life or deteriorating products), number of objective function (single or multi objective), warehouse management policy. Also; other details such as constraints, modeling method, and solution approach are also mentioned. With this study, it is aimed to present the works done on single and multi period inventory problems to the reader in tabular form and to present the information to the researchers who will work on this subject.

Tek ve Çok Dönemli Envanter Kontrol Modelleri

Abstract

Günümüzde firmalar rekabet şartlarına dayanabilmek ve pazarda yer edinebilmek için müşteri taleplerine en uygun ürünü, en az maliyetle en hızlı biçimde sağlamak zorundadırlar. Bütün bu faktörler firmaları, doğru kaynaktan doğru miktarda ürünün, doğru fiyat ile doğru yere dağıtılmasını sağlayan iyi organize olmuş envanter sistemlerinin tasarımı ve planlaması üzerine odaklanmaya teşvik etmiştir. Literatürde, özellikle son yıllarda envanter kontrol problemleri üzerine çok sayıda çalışma yapılmıştır. Bu çalışmada, envanter kontrol problemleri tek ve çok dönemli olmak üzere iki ana başlıkta toplanmıştır. Çalışmalar, talep türü (deterministik veya stokastik), ürün sayısı (tek veya çok ürünlü), sistem yapısı (tek veya çok aşamalı), ürün ömrü (sınırsız raf ömürlü veya bozulabilen ürünler), amaç fonksiyonu sayısı (tek amaçlı veya çok amaçlı), depo yönetim politikası gibi bileşenler dikkate alınarak özetlenmiş ve sınıflandırılmıştır. Ayrıca; kısıtlamalar, modelleme metodu ve çözüm yaklaşımı gibi diğer ayrıntılar da belirtilmiştir. Bu çalışma ile tek ve çok dönemli envanter problemleri ile ilgili yapılan çalışmaların tablolar halinde okuyucuya sunulması ve bu konuda çalışma yapacak araştırmacılara önbilgi sunulması amaçlanmıştır.
