Abstract:

In Inventory control theory, many suitable models for real life systems are constructed with the objective of determining the optimal inventory level. In a system where the machines are in series for producing the finished products. The reserve of semi-finished products between two machines becomes unavoidable to minimize the idle time of machines in series. In this model the repair time of machines is assumed to be a random variable and it follows exponential distribution which satisfies the so called Setting the Clock Back to Zero (SCBZ) property. Also, the truncation point of the repair time distribution is itself a random variable and it follows mixed exponential distribution. Under this assumption an optimal reserve inventory is obtained.
