We consider the multi-item inventory lot-sizing problem with supplier selection. The problem consists of determining an optimal purchasing plan in order to satisfy dynamic deterministic demands for multiple items over a finite planning…
We consider the capacitated three-level lot-sizing and replenishment problem with a distribution structure (3LSPD-C), recently proposed in the literature. In 3LSPD-C, a single production plant delivers items to the warehouses from where…
In this paper we introduce a new problem in the field of production planning which we call the Production Leveling Problem. The task is to assign orders to production periods such that the load in each period and on each production resource…
This paper addresses a mixed integer programming (MIP) formulation for the multi-item uncapacitated lot-sizing problem that is inspired from the trailer manufacturer. The proposed MIP model has been utilized to find out the optimum order…
Despite the success of branch-and-cut methods for solving mixed integer bilevel linear optimization problems (MIBLPs) in practice, there are still gaps in both the theory and practice surrounding these methods. In the first part of this…
This paper approaches the integrated lot sizing and scheduling problem (ILSSP), in which non-identical machines work in parallel with non-triangular sequence-dependent setup costs and times, setup carry-over and capacity limitation. The aim…
In this paper, we propose novel mixed-integer linear programming (MIP) formulations to model decision problems posed as influence diagrams. We also present a novel heuristic that can be employed to warm start the MIP solver, as well as…
Warehouses are nowadays the scene of complex logistic problems integrating different decision layers. This paper addresses the Joint Order Batching, Picker Routing and Sequencing Problem with Deadlines (JOBPRSP-D) in rectangular warehouses.…
This research investigates a multi-product capacitated lot-sizing and scheduling problem incorporating a novel learning effect, namely the period-based learning effect. This is inspired by a real case in a core analysis laboratory under a…
Multicommodity capacitated network design (MCND) models can be used to optimize the consolidation of shipments within e-commerce fulfillment networks. In practice, fulfillment networks require that shipments with the same origin and…
Current state-of-the-art solvers for mixed-integer programming (MIP) problems are designed to perform well on a wide range of problems. However, for many real-world use cases, problem instances come from a narrow distribution. This has…
Scheduling multiple products with limited resources and varying demands remain a critical challenge for many industries. This work presents mixed integer programs (MIPs) that solve the Economic Lot Sizing Problem (ELSP) and other Dynamic…
Cutting planes are crucial for the performance of branch-and-cut algorithms for solving mixed-integer programming (MIP) problems, and linear row aggregation has been successfully applied to better leverage the potential of several major…
We study logit-based multi-purchase choice models and develop an exact solution methodology for the resulting assortment optimization problems, which we show are NP-hard to approximate. We introduce a hypergraph representation that captures…
Although the use of metric fluents is fundamental to many practical planning problems, the study of heuristics to support fully automated planners working with these fluents remains relatively unexplored. The most widely used heuristic is…
We introduce the Pickup and Delivery Problem with Time Windows and Scheduling on the Edges (PDPTW-SE), a generalization of the PDPTW that integrates vehicle routing and machine scheduling. The problem involves defining routes for…
The analysis of infeasible subproblems plays an import role in solving mixed integer programs (MIPs) and is implemented in most major MIP solvers. There are two fundamentally different concepts to generate valid global constraints from…
The rapid proliferation of omnichannel retail strategies has fundamentally transformed store replenishment operations in uncertain supply chain environments. With retail stores increasingly acting as hybrid fulfillment centers, pooled…
In traditional assembly lines, it is reasonable to assume that task execution times are the same for each worker. However, in sheltered work centres for disabled this assumption is not valid: some workers may execute some tasks considerably…
The two-dimensional non-oriented bin packing problem with due dates packs a set of rectangular items, which may be rotated by 90 degrees, into identical rectangular bins. The bins have equal processing times. An item's lateness is the…
