Abstract
The modelling of an inventory control production scheduling system is discussed. The model uses a Dynamic Programming formulation, incorporating the characteristics of the system, so that it can be used interactively by busy managers. This was achieved by a modified Wagner-Whitin algorithm and an interactive safety stock method. The microcomputer implementation of this model was tested, showing practically useful features, and resulted in substantial cost savings and increased customer service.
