Survey of Literature on Continuously Deteriorating Inventory Models
Abstract
This paper presents a complete and up-to-date survey of published inventory literature for the deteriorating (decaying) inventory models. More specifically, those papers are addressed that consider the effect of deterioration as a function of the on-hand level of inventory. The basic features, extensions and generalization of various models are discussed. A classification scheme is presented along with suggestions for future research.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
