One of the primary questions answered in this book is: What is the optimal production quantity when there is a failure in the production line? To answer the question, the problem is first modelled mathematically, then the concavity or convexity of the objective function is proved and finally the optimal production quantity of the production system is determined using suitable solution methods.

The book is valuable for researchers in operations research and inventory management and professionals working with supply chains.

This book provides a general overview of the use of optimisation techniques in decision-making concerning inventory problems, supply chain management, production and manufacturing management, problems related to vendor selection, transportation and logistics, and the use of fuzzy or interval techniques (uncertainty) in the aforementioned areas. It offers helpful guidance on how to decide which strategies to apply in different areas of real-world problems, especially highlighting latest advancements in supply chain management, inventory control, environmental planning, and optimisation. All authors have extensive research experience in practical decision-making scenarios which serves as the foundation for contributing chapters. The book thus assists scientists, upcoming researchers, and businesspeople in understanding optimisation techniques for finding the optimal answer to decision-making problems.
