In this paper, we propose a continuous time model for a multi-echelon inventory system. Items in the inventory are deteriorating. Lateral transshipment are allowed among the warehouses in the same echelon where transshipment rate depends on…

Modularity in military vehicle designs enables on-base assembly, disassembly, and reconfiguration of vehicles, which can be beneficial in promoting fleet adaptability and life cycle cost savings. To properly manage the fleet operation and…

This article discusses the algorithms for finding the optimal solution of problems related to the location of temporary storage of goods, warehouses, factories for processing raw materials and shops selling the final product in the…

We consider a distribution logistics scenario where a shipping operator, managing a limited amount of resources, receives a stream of collection requests, issued by a set of customers along a booking time-horizon, that are referred to a…

In this paper we consider storage and inventory systems. Our aim is to apply and review main results of the fluctuation theory of stochastic processes in the context of storage and inventory modeling. We describe systems where the inflow is…

We study merchant energy production modeled as a compound switching and timing option. The resulting Markov decision process is intractable. State-of-the-art approximate dynamic programming methods applied to realistic instances of this…

The increased volatility of markets and the pressing need for resource sustainability are driving supply chains towards more agile, distributed, and dynamic designs. Motivated by the Physical Internet initiative, we introduce the Dynamic…

In this paper, we explore the interplay between network topology and time criticality in a military logistics system. A general goal of this work (and previous work) is to evaluate land transportation requirements or, more specifically, how…

We give new approximation algorithms for the submodular joint replenishment problem and the inventory routing problem, using an iterative rounding approach. In both problems, we are given a set of $N$ items and a discrete time horizon of…

This paper introduces and analyzes a novel transshipment strategy for meal delivery. In this approach, the service area is partitioned into smaller sub-areas, with deliverers assigned to operate exclusively within these sub-areas.…

We consider a continuous time linear multi inventory system with unknown demands bounded within ellipsoids and controls bounded within ellipsoids or polytopes. We address the problem of "-stabilizing the inventory since this implies some…

Performance and reliability of content access in mobile networks is conditioned by the number and location of content replicas deployed at the network nodes. Facility location theory has been the traditional, centralized approach to study…

We study the management of product transitions in a semiconductor manufacturing firm that requires the coordination of resource allocation decisions by multiple, autonomous Product Divisions using a multi-follower bilevel model to capture…

Online marketplaces increasingly do more than simply match buyers and sellers: they route orders across competing sellers and, in many categories, offer ancillary fulfillment services that make seller inventory a source of platform revenue.…

We consider a stochastic inventory control problem under censored demands, lost sales, and positive lead times. This is a fundamental problem in inventory management, with significant literature establishing near-optimality of a simple…

Production logistics has an important role as a chain that connects the components of the production system. The most important goal of production logistics plans is to keep the flow of the production system well. However, compared to the…

This study focuses on relay transport carriers (RTCs) that contract with hub providers to lease hub capacity and employ relay transportation via hubs. It enables long-haul freight shipments to be transported by multiple short-haul drivers…

This paper provides a unified framework for the problem of controlling a fleet of ride-hailing vehicles under stochastic demand. We introduce a sequential decision-making model that consolidates several problem characteristics and can be…

This paper explores the integration of Additive Manufacturing (or 3D printing) into decentralized supply chains, focusing on the strategic decisions manufacturers and retailers make when facing capacity constraints. Using a Stackelberg game…

The continuous increase in urban deliveries and the ongoing urbanization of large cities require the development of efficient and sustainable transportation solutions. This study investigates the impact of modular vehicle concepts and the…
