Competitive stocking and coordination in a multiple-channel distribution system (2005, background): “Here we provide a review of the works that we believe are most closely related to ours, and refer the reader to Cachon (2003) for a recent overview of this vast literature. The literature on vertical supply chain competition dates back to the classic work by Spengler (1950), who illustrates that dec”
The Allocation of Inventory Risk in a Supply Chain: Push, Pull, and Advance - Purchase Discount Contracts (2004, background): “Ferguson et al. (2002) build on Ferguson (2003) with a model that is qualitatively similar to the one here. They consider “early-commitment” contracts (push) and “delayed-commitment” contracts (pull), but they do not study advance-purchase contracts, nor do they identify the Pareto set of contracts.”
OM Forum - Distributed Ledgers and Operations: What Operations Management Researchers Should Know About Blockchain Technology (2020, unknown): “For example, extending work on transshipments (e.g., Anupindi et al. 2001) to supplier capacity sharing and understanding the supplier’s costs, benefits, and incentives is also interesting.”
Models for Supply Chains in E-Business (2003, background): “Anupindi et al. (2001) develop a general framework for modeling various issues in decentralized distribution channels such as drop shipping, fulﬁll-ment houses, and inventory speculators.”
Inventory models with lateral transshipments: A review (2011, unknown): “This highlights an area of future research which could consider more complex pricing structures An extension of this type of model to N retailers is discussed by Anupindi et al. (2001). They drop the assumption of predetermined transshipment prices, and instead apply a rule for allocating the additi”

Game Theory in Supply Chain Analysis (2004, methodology): “Anupindi et al. (2001) conjecture that a characteristic form of this game has an empty core.”
Group Buying of Competing Retailers (2011, background): “Finally, our work is related to the literature on inventory centralization in a distribution system, in which multiple independent retailers take advantage of risk pooling in joint ordering under stochastic demand (Anupindi et al. 2001, Chen 2009, Hartman et al. 2000, Slikker et al. 2005).”
