An EOQ model with deteriorating items and self-selection constraints
(Springer Nature, 2020-09)
In this paper, we consider a store that sells two vertically differentiated items that might substitute each other. These items do not only differ in quality and price, but they also target two different customer segments. ...
Exact and heuristic approaches to detect failures in failed k-out-of-n systems
(Elsevier, 2019-12)
This paper considers a k-out-of-n system that has just failed. There is an associated cost of testing each component. In addition, we have apriori information regarding the probabilities that a certain set of components ...
