In this paper we propose a Branch and Price algorithm for solving multi-periodsingle-sourcing problems. In particular, we generalize a Branch and Price algorithm thatwas developed for the Generalized Assignment Problem (GAP) to a class of convexassignment problems. We then identify an important...

We consider a model for a serial supply chain in which production, inventory, and transportation decisions are integrated, in the presence of production capacities and for different transportation cost functions. The model we study is a generalization of the traditional single-item economic...
