Title
Approximate queueing models for capacitated multi-stage inventory systems under base-stock control.
Abstract
•A queueing analysis is presented for capacitated multi-stage inventory systems.•The exact model is modified by replacing state-dependent probabilities by constants.•Two recursive algorithms are developed to analyze the steady-state behavior.•The systems studied are more general than the ones studied so far in the literature.•Proposed and existing algorithms are compared analytically and numerically.
