چکیده

We characterize the value function of a discounted, infinite-horizon version of the single-item lot-sizing problem. As corollaries, we show that this value function inherits several properties of finite, mixedinteger program value functions; namely, it is subadditive, lower semicontinuous and piecewise linear.

A POLYNOMIAL TIME BRANCH AND BOUND ALGORITHM FOR THE SINGLE ITEM ECONOMIC LOT SIZING PROBLEM WITH ALL UNITS DISCOUNT AND RESALE

The purpose of this paper is to present a polynomial time algorithm which determines the lot sizes for purchase component in Material Requirement Planning (MRP) environments with deterministic time-phased demand with zero lead time. In this model, backlog is not permitted, the unit purchasing price is based on the all-units discount system and resale of the excess units is possible at the order...

Three Meta-heuristic Algorithms for the Single-item Capacitated Lot-sizing Problem (RESEARCH NOTE)

This paper proposes a mixed integer programming model for single-item capacitated lot-sizing problem with setup times, safety stock, demand shortages, outsourcing and inventory capacity. Due to the complexity of problem, three meta-heuristics algorithms named simulated annealing (SA), vibration damping optimization (VDO) and harmony search (HS) have been used to solve this model. Additionally, ...

A Vibration Damping Optimization Algorithm for Solving the Single-item Capacitated Lot-sizing Problem with Fuzzy Parameters

In this paper, we propose a vibration damping optimization algorithm to solve a fuzzy mathematical model for the single-item capacitated lot-sizing problem. At first, a fuzzy mathematical model for the single-item capacitated lot-sizing problem is presented. The possibility approach is chosen to convert the fuzzy mathematical model to crisp mathematical model. The obtained crisp model is in the...

The single-item lot-sizing problem with immediate lost sales

e introduce a profit maximization version of the well-known Wagner-Whitin model for the deterministic uncapacitated single-item lot-sizing problem with lost sales. Demand cannot be backlogged, but it does not have to be satisfied, either. Costs and selling prices are assumed to be time-variant, differentiating our model from previous models with lost sales. Production quantities and levels of l...

A hybrid ant colony optimization algorithm to optimize capacitated lot-sizing problem

The economical determination of lot size with capacity constraints is a frequently complex, problem in the real world. In this paper, a multi-level problem of lotsizing with capacity constraints in a finite planning horizon is investigated. A combination of ant colony algorithm and a heuristic method called shifting technique is proposed for solving the problem. The parameters, including the co...
