Abstract

En 中文
In this paper we are interested in generating good approximate solutions to single item, N-period, fuzzy inventory control problems. It is a fuzzy inventory control problem since some of the parameters (ordering cost, holding cost, penalty cost) can be fuzzy numbers. We consider three cases: (1) demand is known each period; (2) demand is unknown, and fuzzy each period; and (3) demand is fuzzy and backordering is allowed. We employ an evolutionary algorithm to search out good approximate solutions.
