The planning of purchasing and production lot-size for multi-item multi-period multi-workstation capacitated production (MLCLSP-M) is discussed. Since the model is a NP-hard problem, this research proposes a heuristic method (A-LS), which decomposes the model into two sub-problems and...

We study a special case of a structured mixed integer programming model that arises in a number of applications. For the most general case of the model, called PI, we have earlier analyzed the polyhedral structure (Miller et al. [2000a]), including identifying facet-defining valid inequalities....
