Capacity coordination, as the tactical level of hierarchical production planning in hybrid MTS/MTO systems, includes numerous important decisions. In this paper, two of these decisions i.e. finding the best strategy for the acceptance/rejection of incoming orders and determining orders’ due dates – are investigated. Also a simulation model is proposed to evaluate the efficiency of the presented...

closed-loop supply chain network design is a critical issue due to its impact on both economic and environmental performances of the supply chain. in this paper, we address the problem of designing a multi-echelon, multi-product and capacitated closed-loop supply chain network. first, a mixed-integer linear programming formulation is developed to maximize the total profit. the main contribution...

Logistics Network Design includes network configuration decisions having long-standing influences on other tactical and operational decisions. Recently, regarding environmental issues and customer awareness and global warming closed-loop supply chain network design is taken into consideration. The proposed network for the integrated forward and reverse logistics is developed by formulating a cy...

despite existing various integer programming for sequencing problems, there is not enoughinformation about practical values of the models. this paper considers the problem of minimizing maximumlateness with release dates and presents four different mixed integer programming (mip) models to solve thisproblem. these models have been formulated for the classical single machine problem, namely sequ...

We study a generalization of the vertex packing problem having both binary and bounded continuous variables, called the mixed vertex packing problem (MVPP). The well-known vertex packing model arises as a subproblem or relaxation of many 0-1 integer problems, whereas the mixed vertex packing model arises as a natural counterpart of vertex packing in the context of mixed 0-1 integer programming....

The business environment is full of uncertainty. Allocating the wealth among various asset classes may lower the risk of overall portfolio and increase the potential for more benefit over the long term. In this paper, we propose a mixed singlestage R&D projects and multi-stage securities portfolio selection model. Specifically, we present a bi-objective mixed-integer stochastic programming mode...

abstract: implementing a combined cooling, heating and power system(cchp) to cool, heat and produce electricity is growing rapidly due to its efficiency and low emissions. in this paper, using economic analysis, the size and operation detail of the required gas engine and the specific electricity, cooling and heating load curves for a one year operating period has been determined. the proposed ...

this paper is in search of designing the cellular manufacturing systems (cmss) under dynamic and flexible environment. cm is proper for small-to-medium lot production environment that helps the companies to produce variable kind of productions with at least scraps. the most important benefits of cm are decline in material handling, reduction in work-in-process, reduction in set-up time, increme...

In this paper, we develop a capacitated location-covering model considering interval values for demand and service parameters. We also consider flexibility on distance standard for covering demand nodes by the servers. We use the satisfaction degree to represent the constraint of service capacity. The proposed model belongs to the class of mixed integer programming models. Our model can be redu...
