Kettelle: An Implementation of the General Kettelle Algorithm

In xmetric: X-METRIC Multi-Echelon Techniques for Replaceable Inventory Control

Description

Determination of the un-dominated allocations of parts at a single echelon.

Usage

Kettelle(x, limit=1e-4, data.name="", performance="FRN", show=FALSE)

Arguments

x	A dataframe holding part data specific to a Barlow and Proschan example
limit	The end point for performance enhancement after incremental addition of parts to stores.
data.name	A character string to identify the input, used only for the graphical output title
performance	A character string defining the performance measure for output reporting. any entry other than "Fill Rate", or "EBO" will be handled as "FRN".
show	A logical value controlling graphical output.

Value

Returns a dataframe tabulating un-dominated allocations with cumulative performance measure and cost for stocking replacement parts at a depot (single eschelon).
