| Abstract: | <p>This paper develops a mathematical program for allocating market demands facilities, over a multiperiod planning horizon. In the model, demands for the firm's product in a given period are dependent on allocation decisions in the preceding period.This feature is seen as a mechanism for analyzing the timing of market share increases in conjunction with conventional allocation tradeoffs. An example is explored extensively to illustrate the potential applicability of the model, solution approaches for reducing computational requirements are examined, and extension of the model are presented.</p> |
