this paper deals with the single machine multi-product lot scheduling problem in which defective items are produced in any production run of each product. we have adopted the common cycle scheduling policy and assumed that the setup times for production of each product can be non-zero. further, we have assumed that defective items will be reworked and the inspection costs during the normal prod...

We consider the single item capacitated lot sizing problem a well known produc tion planning model that often arises in practical applications and derive new classes of valid inequalities for it We also derive new easily computable valid inequalities for the continuous knapsack problem The continuous knapsack problem has been introduced recently and has been shown to provide a useful relaxation...

this paper proposes a new mixed integer programming model for multi-item capacitated lot-sizing problem with setup times, safety stock and demand shortages in closed-loop supply chains. the returned products from customers can either be disposed or be remanufactured to be sold as new ones again. due to the complexity of problem, three meta-heuristics algorithms named simulated annealing (sa) al...

This chapter intends to give an overview of the literature on dynamic lot-sizing models and stochastic transshipment models. These two types of models are used as a basis for developing models with substitution in the following chapters. Section 2.1 contains a classification of models for dynamic lot-sizing / production planning, and selected models. In Sect. 2.2, we give a brief overview of av...
