Abstract
We discuss the effects of inflation and time discounting on an EOQ model for deteriorating items under stock-dependent demand and time-dependent partial backlogging. The inventory model is studied under the replenishment policy starting with no shortages. We then use MATLAB to find the optimal replenishment policies. The objective of this model is to maximize the total profit (TP) which includes the sales revenue, purchase cost, the set up cost, holding cost, shortage cost and opportunity cost due to lost sales. Analytical results are given to justify the model. Finally, numerical examples are presented to determine the developed model and the solution procedure. Sensitivity analysis of the optimal solution with respect to major parameters is carried out. We propose a solution procedure to find the solution and obtain some managerial results by using sensitivity analysis.

Abstract
We present an application of ABS algorithms for multiple sequence alignment (MSA). The Markov decision process (MDP) based model leads to a linear programming problem (LPP), whose solution is linked to a suggested alignment. The important features of our work include the facility of alignment of multiple sequences simultaneously and no limit for the length of the sequences. Our goal here is to avoid the excessive computing time, needed by dynamic programming based algorithms for alignment of a large number of sequences. In an attempt to demonstrate the integration of the ABS approach with complex mathematical frameworks, we apply the ABS implicit LX algorithm to elucidate the LPP, constructed with the assistance of MDP. The MDP applied for MSA is a pragmatic approach and entails a scope for future work. Programming is done in the MATLAB environment
