An enhanced L-Shaped method for optimizing periodic-review inventory control problems modeled via two-stage stochastic programming

This paper presents the development of an enhanced L-Shaped method applied to an inventory management problem that considers a replenishment control system based on the periodic review (R,S) policy. We consider single-item one-echelon problems with uncertain demands and partial backorder that are modeled using two-stage stochastic programming. To enable the consideration of large-scale problems, the … Read more
