Overview
Decision Criteria and Optimal Inventory Processes provides a theoretical and practical introduction to decision criteria and inventory processes. Inventory theory is presented by focusing on the analysis and processes underlying decision criteria. Included are many state-of-the-art criterion models as background material. These models are extended to the authors' newly developed fuzzy criterion models which constitute a general framework for the study of stochastic inventory models with special focus on the real world inventory theoretic reservoir operations problems. The applications of fuzzy criterion dynamic programming models are illustrated by reservoir operations including the integrated network of reservoir operation and the open inventory network problems.An interesting feature of this book is the special attention it pays to the analysis of some theoretical and applied aspects of fuzzy criteria and dynamic fuzzy criterion models, thus opening up a new way of injecting the much-needed type of non-cost, intuitive, and easy-to-use methods into multi-stage inventory processes. This is accomplished by constructing and optimizing the fuzzy criterion models developed for inventory processes.

Booknews
This book is designed to provide a theoretical and practical introduction to decision criteria and inventory processes for operations researchers, practitioners in management science, engineers, and applied mathematicians. Inventory theory is presented by focusing on the analysis and processes underlying decision criteria. Liu (mathematics, Tsinghua U., Beijing) and Esogbue (engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology) include many state-of- the-art criterion models, including their own newly developed fuzzy criterion models. They pay close attention to both the theoretical and applied aspects of fuzzy criteria and dynamic fuzzy criterion models, and use reservoir operations problems to illustrate these models' practical applications.
