In this study, two models are developed to co-ordinate both production and distribution in
order to reduce the relevant costs in a supply chain. According to the functions of the …

Temporal demand aggregation has been shown in the academic literature to be an
intuitively appealing and effective approach to deal with demand uncertainty for fast moving …

This paper addresses the resource distribution problem in logistic networks with a complex,
multi‐echelon interconnection structure. The considered class of systems encompasses two …

This paper addresses the problem of resource distribution control in logistic systems
influenced by uncertain demand. The considered class of logistic topologies comprises two …

Financial supply chain management and working capital management are increasingly
under the spotlight as effective approaches to optimising working capital levels and directing …

In this article, we provide an algorithm for generating valid 4× 4 correlation matrices by
creating bounds for the remaining three correlations that insure positive semidefiniteness …

This study introduces the stochastic two-echelon multicommodity location routing problem
with stochastic and correlated demands. We propose a two-stage stochastic programming …

The forecasting needs for inventory control purposes are hierarchical. For stock keeping
units (SKUs) in a product family or a SKU stored across different depot locations, forecasts …

In a wide range of practical problems correlation matrices are formed in such a way that,
while symmetry and a unit diagonal are ensured, they may lack semidefiniteness. We derive …

Relations between pairwise correlations and the coefficient of multiple determination in
regression analysis are considered. The conditions for the occurrence of enhance …
