A location problem on unicyclic networks: balanced case
Article Abstract:
A formulation of the location problem on unicyclic Material Handing Networks (MHN) is proposed as a station sequencing problem for balanced flow matrices. The formulation is unaffected by MHN size and the actual site of the stations, thereby making the algorithm robust. As a result, the formulation can be applied to any unicyclic MHN once the optimal station sequence is derived. The IP problem is also shown to be a solvable case, given the integrality of the integer programming formulation.

Analysis of a single-stage, single-product, stochastic, MRP-controlled assembly system
Article Abstract:
A stochastic, single-stage, single-product functioning under a Materials Requirements Planning (MRP) control is studied. MRP was traditionally based on a deterministic production system. In the fixed MRP system, production and inventory is done at a fixed basis so that a single-stage production occurs. Replacement of products is done only after one is finished. However, in the stochastic environment, production and inventory is done at random, replacement is done only when deemed necessary.
