Problem definition: We consider an intermediary's problem of dynamically matching demand
and supply of heterogeneous types in a periodic-review fashion. Specifically, there are two …

Motivated by a study of the logistics systems used to manage consumable service parts for
the US military, we consider a static threshold-based rationing policy that is useful when …

We provide a new approach to the structural analysis of the standard lost-sales inventory
system. This approach is, we think, easier to work with than the original one. We also derive …

Stock rationing is an inventory policy that allows differential treatment of customer classes
without using separate inventories. In this paper, we propose a dynamic rationing policy for …

We consider the optimal production and inventory control of an assemble-to-order system
with m components, one end-product, and n customer classes. A control policy specifies …

We consider a retailer with limited inventory of identically priced, substitutable products. The
retailer faces a market with multiple segments of customers that are heterogeneous with …

We consider a single-product inventory system that serves multiple demand classes, which
differ in their shortage costs or service-level requirements. We assume a critical-level control …

We examine a multiperiod capacity allocation model with upgrading. There are multiple
product types, corresponding to multiple classes of demand, and the firm purchases capacity …

Consider an inventory system with multiple supply sources and Poisson demand. The
replenishment lead times from each source are stochastic, representing congestion and …
