In this study, we investigate several facets of a due-date quotation problem and develop a model considering jointly due-date quotation, order acceptance and base-stock decisions in a hybrid make-to-stock (MTS) / make-to-order (MTO) and multi-class system with lead time sensitive Poisson demand and exponentially distributed service times. We seek to maximize profit considering lateness penalties and holding costs in the model. We consider three alternative due-date quotation policies each having different properties in terms of due-date flexibility as well as the utilization of state information. In order to evaluate the value of due-date flexibility as well as state information, the performances of the optimal policy and alternative policies are evaluated for various performance measures under different operating conditions. We also discuss the benefit of joint pooling of inventory and capacity under optimal policy and an accept-all policy.

A probabilistic approach to multi criteria sorting problem Buğdacı, Aslı Gül; Köksalan, Murat; Department of Industrial Engineering (2009) We aim to classify alternatives evaluated in multiple criteria among preference ordered classes assuming an underlying additive utility function. We develop a probabilistic classification method by calculating the probability of an alternative being in each class. We assign alternatives to classes based on threshold probabilities. We require the decision maker to place an alternative to a class when no alternatives satisfy the required thresholds. We find new probabilities for unassigned alternatives in the...
Optimal pricing and production decisions in reusable container systems Atamer, Büşra; Bakal, İsmail Serdar; Department of Industrial Engineering (2010) In this study, we focus on pricing and production decisions in reusable container systems with stochastic demand. We consider a producer that sells a single product to the customers in reusable containers with two supply options: (i) brand-new containers, (ii) returned containers from customers. Customers purchasing the products may return the containers to the producer to receive a deposit price. The return quantity depends on both customer demand and the deposit price determined by the producer. Hence, th...
Controlling high quality manufacturing processes: a robustness study of the lower-sided tbe ewma procedure Pehlivan, Canan; Köksal, Gülser; Department of Industrial Engineering (2008) In quality control applications, Time-Between-Events (TBE) type observations may be monitored by using Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) control charts. A widely accepted model for the TBE processes is the exponential distribution, and hence TBE EWMA charts are designed under this assumption. Nevertheless, practical applications do not always conform to the theory and it is common that the observations do not fit the exponential model. Therefore, control charts that are robust to departures from ...
On the service models for dynamic scheduling of multi-class base-stock controlled systems Kat, Bora; Avşar, Zeynep Müge; Department of Industrial Engineering (2005) This study is on the service models for dynamic scheduling of multi-class make-to-stock systems. An exponential single-server facility processes different types of items one by one and demand arrivals for different item types occur according to independent Poisson processes. Inventories of the items are managed by base-stock policies and backordering is allowed. The objective is to minimize base-stock investments or average inventory holding costs subject to a constraint on the aggregate fill rate, which is...
Periodic-review inventory systems with exogenous and endogenous replenishment lead times Aşcı, Murtaza; Avşar, Zeynep Müge; Department of Industrial Engineering (2007) In this thesis, two-echelon systems with exogenous and endogenous lead times are studied for the orders placed by the retailer(s) from the supplier. The retailer(s) employ periodic-review base-stock policy, namely (R,S) policy. For the case the demand during review period is i.i.d. and the probability distribution is Normal for each review period, a new method is proposed for exogenous lead time case under stationary policy. The results of the proposed method is then compared with the results of the existin...
