  • Singa Wang Chiu,
  • Dah-Chuan Gong,
  • Chun-Lin Chiu and
  • Chia-Ling Chung

1 August 2011

This paper is concerned with joint determination of the optimal lot size and optimal number of shipments for an economic production quantity (EPQ) model with the reworking of random defective items produced. The classic EPQ model assumes a continuous...
