摘要

Sustainable product service system (S-PSS) regarded as an evolution of existing product development approaches which incorporates services as well as products for achieving sustainable development. Therefore, several IT manufacturers around the world have developed plans for fulfilling consumer%26apos;s needs by providing a combination of product and services and also management of product at the end of its life (EOL). Hence, it is essential to develop an analytical model that can help manufacturers to analyze their S-PSS plans. We model both optimization of environmental and economical impacts of the product during consumption and end of life phase from point of view of the consumer and manufacturer. A multi-objective genetic algorithm has been applied to simultaneously optimize service period and product EOL decisions. Finally, a case study of a notebook market is provided to show the applications of the model.
