To generate insights into how production of new items and remanufacturing and disposal of returned products can be … effectively coordinated, we develop a model of a hybrid manufacturing–remanufacturing system. Formulating the model as a Markov … decision process, we investigate the structure of the optimal policy that jointly controls production, remanufacturing, and …

In this paper, we investigate the effect of remanufacturing on capacity and production decisions. Inspired by the … focus on the case where remanufacturing is less costly and less capacity intensive than manufacturing. This setting is … realistic and obviously the one where remanufacturing is most beneficial. Optimal manufacturing and remanufacturing quantities …

The economic lot sizing problem with product returns and recovery is an important problem that appears in reverse logistics, and has recently been proved to be NP-hard. In this paper, we suggest a variable neighborhood search (VNS) metaheuristic algorithm for solving this problem. It is the...
