To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In this case inventory integrates production rate. Below we investigate the effect of error, distortion, delay, and sampling in the information flow from sales rate (feedforward) and from inventory (feedback) in the structure of Figure 2. The investigation is performed by degrading the information in a simulation model and looking at the impact upon total costs. The simulation model and its cost functions are based upon the classic work by Holt, Modigliani, Muth, and Simon (13). The model diffe...rs somewhat from theirs. Most importantly, the cost functions are piecewise linear curves which fit the raw cost data better than do the quadratic functions used by Holt et. Al. In order to insure that the effect upon total cost of degradation in information quality are not due to poor decision rules, the decision rules used are the same for each test and are near optimal for perfect informa- tion. I can't claim them to be optimal because they were found using simulation. However, with the piecewise linear cost functions, the rule used is three percent cheaper than the Holt et.
