| Abstract: | The purpose of this research is to generalize and integrate existing inventory-control models, product assortment models, and shelf-space allocations models. The author first generalizes the inventory-level- dependent demand inventory model to explicitly model the demand rate as a function of the displayed inventory model to explicitly model the demand rate as a function of the displayed inventory level. The authors then investigates the product assortment and shelf-space allocation problems by extending this model into the multi-item, constrained environment. |
