| Abstract | Joint location inventory problems involve determination of two key decisions in a supply chain network: inventory control decisions and facility location decisions. This paper addresses a supply chain network consisting of a supplier and a set of retailers, in which a number of distribution centers (DCs) are to be located. The objectives of a joint location inventory problem are to identify the optimal number and location of the DCs, the assignment of the retailers to the DCs and determining the inventory control decision of the DCs so that the total cost is minimized. This paper extends the traditional joint location inventory model that considers the basic EOQ policy to replenish the inventory of retailers, by considering quantity discount as the inventory policy of the supply chain network. The new model can be applied to both EOQ and quantity discount policies. An efficient two-stage heuristic algorithm is developed to solve the model. Numerical experiments show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
