In this paper we study the integration of production, transportation and storage decisions in a multi plant-distribution center supply chain structure. Multiple plants produce one type of item, each of them with different production capacity and costs, and send finished goods to the distribution...

In this paper, we study a special case of the capacitated lot sizing problem (CLSP), where alternative machines are used for the production of a single-item. The production cost on each machine is assumed to be piece-wise linear with discontinuous steps (step-wise costs). The over-produced...
