The book's primary purpose is to serve as a core textbook in various university courses. In addition, it serves as a source book to industry practitioners to understand inventory control techniques and thereby simplify and promote implementation in practice. The second edition of Inventory Control, which has been extended by more than 50 percent, satisfies both these objectives. It incorporates several new topics, and there are eleven chapters compared to six in the previous version. The explanations of different results are more detailed, and a number of exercises have been added."--BOOK JACKET ER -
