Part I of this three-part series described semiconductor supply chains from the decision-
making and functional perspectives, using this as a framework to review the industrial …

In manufacturing environments, uncertain production yield directly impacts the quality and
feasibility of the production planning decisions. This paper investigates the use of adaptive …

We consider a manufacturer sourcing from two suppliers of asymmetric component quality
and producing a quality-differentiated product, namely a low-and high-quality version, with …

The manufacturing complexity of many high‐tech products results in a substantial variation
in the quality of the units produced. After manufacturing, the units are classified into vertically …

We consider production systems in technology industries where output quality of a single
production run has a large variance. Firms operating such systems classify products into …

This paper considers an economic production quantity with imperfect items where the quality
of items produced within the same production run is correlated. Production and scheduled …

Random yield and uncertain demand usually both exist in many industries, such as the
semiconductor industry. In this paper, the price-setting newsvendor model is studied which …

This book focuses on supply chains with uncertainty due to random yields. A common
assumption in such systems is that the yields are observable only after all transportation or …

Product variety decision has been analyzed in the Marketing, Economics and Operations
Management (OM) literature. While both Marketing and Economics literature have made …

The LED (Light-emitting Diode) manufacturing system is characterized with uncertain
production rate in push-pull hybrid production environment where inventory policy in chip …
