The discrete lotsizing and scheduling problem for one machine with sequence dependent setup times and setup costs is solved as a single machine scheduling problem, which we term the batch sequencing problem. The relationship between the lotsizing problem and the batch sequencing problem is...

The discrete lotsizing and scheduling problem for one machine with sequence-dependent setup times and setup costs is solved as a single machine scheduling problem, which we term the batch sequencing problem. The relationship between the lotsizing problem and the batch sequencing problem is...

The discrete lotsizing and scheduling problem with setup-times is transformed into a single-machine scheduling problem, denoted as batch sequencing problem, which integrates sequence-dependent setups as well. The relationship between the lotsizing and the batch sequencing problem is analyzed....

Order picking deals with the retrieval of articles from their storage locations in order to satisfy customer requests. The transformation and consolidation of customer orders into picking orders (batches) is pivotal for the performance of order picking systems. Typically, customer orders have to...

A carousel system is an example of an automated storage and retrieval system that is used in distribution centers and manufacturing facilities. We analyze the impact batch retrieval processing has on throughput performance for horizontal carousel systems that use automated storage and retrieval...
