Mathematical Models for Supply Chain Inventory Coordination

Through elegant and simple mathematical modeling and optimization of supply chain production inventory coordination decisions, this book presents several useful models that can be easily applied to achieve key goals of supply chain management. Mainly, it provides sound solutions to the problem of coordinating production and inventory decisions across the multi-stage supply chain so that the total cost of the system is minimized.
