Polyhedral Characterization of the Economic Lot-Sizing Problem with Start-Up Costs
نویسندگان
چکیده
L.A. Wolsey * A class of strong valid inequalities is described for the single-item uncapacitated economic lot-sizing problem with start-up costs. It is shown that these inequalities yield a complete polyhedral characterization of the problem. The corresponding separation problem is formulated as a shortest path problem. Finally, a reformulation as a plant location problem is shown to imply the class of strong valid inequalities, which shows that this reformulation is tight also.

Modeling and Analyzing Incremental Quantity Discounts in Transportation Costs for a Joint Economic Lot Sizing Problem
Joint economic lot sizing (JELS) addresses integrated inventory models in a supply chain. Most of the studies in this field either do not consider the role of the transportation cost in their analysis or consider transportation cost as a fixed part of the ordering costs. In this article, a model is developed to analyze an incremental quantity discount in transportation cost. Appropriate equatio...
متن کاملEconomic Lot Sizing and Scheduling in Distributed Permutation Flow Shops
This paper addresses a new mixed integer nonlinear and linear mathematical programming economic lot sizing and scheduling problem in distributed permutation flow shop problem with number of identical factories and machines. Different products must be distributed between the factories and then assignment of products to factories and sequencing of the products assigned to each factory has to be d...
متن کاملRelaxations for Two - Level Multi - Item Lot - Sizing Problem
We consider several variants of the two-level lot-sizing problem with one item at the upper level facing dependent demand, and multiple items or clients at the lower level, facing independent demands. We first show that under a natural cost assumption, it is sufficient to optimize over a stock-dominant relaxation. We further study the polyhedral structure of a strong relaxation of this problem ...
متن کاملSimultaneous Lot Sizing and Scheduling in a Flexible Flow Line
This paper breaks new ground by modelling lot sizing and scheduling in a flexible flow line (FFL) simultaneously instead of separately. This problem, called the ‘General Lot sizing and Scheduling Problem in a Flexible Flow Line’ (GLSP-FFL), optimizes the lot sizing and scheduling of multiple products at multiple stages, each stage having multiple machines in parallel. The objective is to satisf...
متن کاملFacets and Reformulations for Solving Production Planning With Changeover Costs
We study a scheduling problem with changeover costs and capacity constraints. The problem is NP-complete and combinatorial algorithms for solving it have not performed well. We identify a general class of facets that subsumes as special cases some known facets from the literature. We also develop a cutting plane based procedure and reformulation for the problem, and obtain optimal solutions to ...
