A Parametric Analysis of a Constrained Nonlinear Inventory-production Model
讨论一类可表示为带额外线性约束的非线性参数网络流问题的库存生产模型，通过定性敏感性分析帮助管理者理解如何应对成本、需求等环境变化，无需额外计算。
We discuss in this paper some inventory-production models which can be formulated as nonlinear parametric network flow problems with one additional linear constraint. Several sensitivity analysis questions are addressed. The qualitative sensitivity results obtained provide the manager with insight to understanding qualitatively how to respond to changes in the environment such as production costs, inventory capacity, external demand, machine break-down, strike, or variations in inventory carrying cost without additional computation.
