Inventory routing problem with non-stationary stochastic demands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper we solve Stochastic Periodic Inventory Routing Problem (SPIRP) when the accuracy of expected demand is changing among the periods. The variability of demands increases from period to period.

Inventory routing problems: an introduction [PDF]

open access: yesEURO Journal on Transportation and Logistics, 2012
In this tutorial paper, we introduce the inventory routing problems (IRPs) with examples, we classify the characteristics of an IRP and present different models and policies for the class of problems where the crucial decision is when to serve customers. We call this class the problems with decisions over time only.
