During the last two decades, many heuristic procedures for the joint replenishment problem have appeared in the literature. The only available optimal solution procedure was based on an enumerative approach and was computationally prohibitive. In this paper we present an alternative optimal approach

We consider in this paper the coordinated replenishment dynamic lot-sizing problem when quantity discounts are offered. In addition to the coordination required due to the presence of major and minor setup costs, a separate element of coordination made possible by the offer of quantity discounts nee
The equations describing the transient behavior of a counter-current heat exchanger have been solved numerically by using finite differences centered between the grid points in both space and time. The space index is shifted for one dependent variable so the equations take a form for solution by an
A family of new hybrid explicit four-step tenth algebraic order methods ## Ε½ . with phase lag of order 18 2 26 is developed for efficient computations of the Schrodinger Γ«quation. Based on these new methods, a new embedded variable-step method is obtained. Numerical results produced for the nume
Knowledge of fluid pressure is important to predict the presence of oil and gas in reservoirs. A mathematical model for the prediction of fluid pressures is given by a time-dependent diffusion equation. Application of the finite element method leads to a system of linear equations. A complication is
