Inventory model for a multi-echelon system with unidirectional lateral transshipment

作者:

Highlights:

• Literature analysis for lateral transshipment models in complex networks.

• Multi-site multi-item multi-echelon model with unidirectional lateral transshipment.

• Model based on the system-approach with availability target and cost minimization.

• Genetic algorithm for the optimization of non-linear constrained function.

• A case study of a European airline shows the benefits of the model.
