摘要：

In a recent article, Sarker and Fitzsimmons (1989) compare the effects of push and pull tactics in a serial production line with identical stations. As part of their work, they present data on the relationship between the throughput of the line and the coefficient of variation of processing times. We take issue with their distinction between push and pull, and we provide evidence that their numerical estimates are flawed. © 1990 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
