tendency to optimization in last decades has resulted in creating multi-product manufacturing systems. production planning in such systems is difficult, because optimal production volume that is calculated must be consistent with limitation of production system. hence, integration has been proposed to decide about these problems concurrently. main problem in integration is how we can relate pro...

This paper presented an application of Fuzzy mathematical programming model to solve network design problems for supply chains via considering aggregate production planning (APP). APP goals to minimize all costs through optimal levels of production, subcontracting, inventory, backorder and work levels over a time period to meet the demand. Fuzzy logic was applied to solve the uncertain producti...

Medium-term production planning and short-term scheduling match future production load and capacities over various horizons and on different levels of detail. Although these two levels of the decision hierarchy are strongly interdependent, traditional systems handle them separately. In the Proterv-II prototype system that was developed for manufacturing industries, the two levels are linked by ...

Manufacturers need to satisfy consumer demands in order to compete in the real world. This requires the efficient operation of a supply chain planning. In this research we consider a supply chain including multiple suppliers, multiple manufacturers and multiple customers, addressing a multi-site, multiperiod, multi-product aggregate production planning (APP) problem under uncertainty. First a n...
