Production and Operations Management: Models and Algorithms -- Graphical Modeling of Substitutions and Flexible Bills …This book addresses production and inventory management problems where products can be replaced by specified …. The main focus is the development of graphical modeling approaches for substitution options and of production planning …

, there are situations where products have short/long setup times, and the setup of the product and its subsequent production … capacity of the period in which it is setup. The setup is immediately followed by its production of the product and it may also … be carried over, across successive time period(s). Many process industries require production of a product to occur …

Integrated supply chain planning is well understood by theory and widely applied in practice - however, only with …

general, the objective is to find production plans, which meet demand with the resources` given capacities and at minimal … production processes. Both standard MRP-systems and modern Advanced Planning Systems fail to provide adequate solutions. Instead …, they most often compute production plans, which are not feasible in practice. In this book new lotsizing models are …
