Abstract:
In this thesis we have presented several inventory models of utility. Of these inventory with
retrial of unsatisfied demands and inventory with postponed work are quite recently introduced
concepts, the latt~~ being introduced for the first time. Inventory with service time is relatively
new with a handful of research work reported. The di lficuity encoLlntered in inventory with
service, unlike the queueing process, is that even the simplest case needs a 2-dimensional
process for its description. Only in certain specific cases we can introduce generating function
•
to solve for the system state distribution. However numerical procedures can be developed for
solving these problem.
