摘要:
Consider a set of n stores with single-item and single-period demands. Assume an option of centralized ordering and inventory with holding and penalty casts only. In this case, a cooperative inventory centralization game defines' allocations of the cost. We examine; the conditions under which such an inventory centralization game has a nonempty core. We prove the existence of nonempty core far demands with symmetric distributions and the existence of nonempty core for joint multivariate normal demand distribution. We establish the equivalency of four different nonempty core conditions for the Newsboy Problem and demonstrate their efficiency for discrete independent and identically distributed (iid) demands.
