Inventory Management in Humanitarian Operations: Impact of Amount, Schedule, and Uncertainty in Funding
نویسندگان
چکیده
The talk focuses on the simultaneous resource allocation, lot-sizing and scheduling in a multi-machine, deterministic ELSP environment. The objective is to minimize the long-run average production, setup, inventory, and shortage penalty costs. We develop a concave minimization model of the problem, generate heuristic solutions, lower bounding methods and present computational results.

Multiple-organizational coordination planning for humanitarian relief operations
In humanitarian relief operations (HRO), due to the excessive number of relief organizations, multiple organizational coordination is a demanding and complicated task. Considering such a problem, this paper proposes a two-phase mechanism to coordinate multiple heterogeneous relief organizations in a decentralized HRO logistics network. To address such a problem, first a bi-level mixed integer l...
متن کاملA Robust Optimization Methodology for Multi-objective Location-transportation Problem in Disaster Response Phase under Uncertainty
This paper presents a multi-objective model for location-transportation problem under uncertainty that has been developed to respond to crisis. In the proposed model, humanitarian aid distribution centers (HADC), the number and location of them, the amount of relief goods stored in distribution centers, the amount of relief goods sent to the disaster zone, the number of injured people transferr...
متن کاملA Procurement-distribution Coordination Model in Humanitarian Supply Chain Using the Information-sharing Mechanism
The coordination problem of relief items’ distribution operations is essential in humanitarian relief chains. If the coordination is proper, it will improve the response phase to the crisis. In order to improve the coordination in humanitarian relief chains, distribution and warehousing operations of relief items were outsourced to the third-party logistics. In this paper, the procurement-distr...
متن کاملPre-positioning and dynamic operations planning in pre- and post-disaster phases with lateral transhipment under uncertainty and disruption
Humanitarian organizations pre-position relief items in pre-disaster and distribute them to the affected areas in post-disaster. Improper planning of emergency operations causes more deaths in post-disaster. In this paper, the problem of relief item pre-positioning and multi-period distribution planning is addressed considering lateral transhipment among distribution centres to improve the effi...
متن کاملA Stochastic Programming Approach for a Multi-Site Supply Chain Planning in Textile and Apparel Industry under Demand Uncertainty
In this study, a new stochastic model is proposed to deal with a multi-product, multi-period, multi-stage, multi-site production and transportation supply chain planning problem under demand uncertainty. A two-stage stochastic linear programming approach is used to maximize the expected profit. Decisions such as the production amount, the inventory level of finished and semi-finished product, t...
