## Abstract This note generalizes Fukuda's twoโalternateโleadโtimes model (1964) with linear ordering costs to the case where the ordering costs are convex. We use lattice programming to show the qualitative properties of an optimal ordering policy if the ordering costs are convex and to further ch

## SUMMARY Although community pharmacies have been the mainstay for drug distribution in the USA, plan members are encouraged to use mailโorder pharmacies as a costโcontainment strategy. Both channels differ with respect to reimbursement rates, utilization, and costs. We evaluated the differences i
We study the deterministic optimization problem of a proรฟt-maximizing รฟrm which plans its sales/production schedule. The รฟrm knows the revenue associated to a given level of sales, as well as its production and storage costs. The revenue and the production cost are assumed to be, respectively, conca
