Abstract

This paper investigates a two-echolon inventory system with (S-1,S) policy that consists of several same repairable items and single repair facility, and assumes that the item demand occur according to a markovian arrival process (MAP), the repair time, ship time and procurement time follow the general distribution which is represented by phase-type (PH) distribution. Then a inventory optimization model with better description ability and analytical performance is given, and the probability distribution of backorder is obtained. Finally, a numerical example was given to illustrate the effectiveness of the model.
