The purpose of this paper is to summarise the more important techniques
used to analyse the multi-echelon inventory control problem. An introductory
section defines the term "multiechelon" and establishes the kinds of
problems involving multi-echelon considerations. Subsequent two sections
provide review of work in multi-echelon inventory theory with respect to
selections from the literature. Deterministic-Stochastic dichotomy, is used as
a distinguishing feature to categorise models. The penultimate section
discusses the recent work on the subject and the last section contains
conclusions and a direction for further research.
