Dynamic Pricing in the Presence of Inventory Considerations: Research Overview, Current Practices, and Future Directions
综述了动态定价在库存可存储行业（如零售业）的研究现状与实践，分析了数据可得性、技术变革和决策工具三大推动因素，适合关注定价策略与运营管理的学者。
The benefits of dynamic pricing methods have long been known in industries, such as airlines, hotels, and electric utilities, where the capacity is fixed in the short-term and perishable. In recent years, there has been an increasing adoption of dynamic pricing policies in retail and other industries, where the sellers have the ability to store inventory. Three factors contributed to this phenomenon: (1) the increased availability of demand data, (2) the ease of changing prices due to new technologies, and (3) the availability of decision-support tools for analyzing demand data and for dynamic pricing. This paper constitutes a review of the literature and current practices in dynamic pricing. Given its applicability in most markets and its increasing adoption in practice, our focus is on dynamic (intertemporal) pricing in the presence of inventory considerations.
