RT Journal Article T1 Cooperative game theory and inventory management A1 Fiestras Janeiro, Maria Gloria A1 García Jurado, Ignacio A1 Meca Martínez, Ana A1 Mosquera Rodríguez, Manuel Alfredo K1 1207.06 Teoría de Juegos K1 1207.08 Inventarios AB Supply chain management is related to the coordination of materials, products and information flows among suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers and customers involved in producing and delivering a final product or service. In this setting the centralization of inventory management and coordination of actions, to further reduce costs and improve customer service level, is a relevant issue. In this paper, we provide a review of the applications of cooperative game theory in the management of centralized inventory systems. Besides, we introduce and study a new model of centralized inventory: a multi-client distribution network.
