Resource-constrained project scheduling under a net present value objective attracts growing interest. Because this is an NP-hard problem, it is unlikely that optimum solutions can be computed for large instances. Thus, heuristics have become a popular research field. Up to now, however, tight...

A flow line consists of a sequence of work places (or stations) through which one or more producta (or models) move one-way in order to be processed. Each model requires specific Operations which must be performed in a predefined Order. To be able to do so, the stations must be equipped with...

This paper deals with lot sizing and scheduling for a single-stage production System where setup costs and times are sequence dependent. A large bücket mixed integer programming (MIP) model is formulated which considers only efficient sequences. A tailor-made enumeration method of the...

This contribution deals with dynamic, capacitated, multi-level lot sizing and scheduling. The basic assumption is that for each item there is exactly one machine that this item can be manufactured on but no two items share a common machine. Finding an optimal solution with a greedy algorithm...

This contribution acquaints the reader with a model for multi-level single-machine proportional lot sizing and scheduling problems (PLSPs) that appear in the scope of short-term production planning. It is one of the first papers that deals with dynamic capacitated multi-level lot sizing and...

Recently, Branzei, Dimitrov, and Tijs (2003) introduced cooperative interval-valued games. Among other insights, the notion of an interval core has been coined and proposed as a solution concept for interval-valued games. In this paper we will present a general mathematical programming algorithm...
