Existence of forecast horizons in undiscounted discrete-time lot size models

As our main result, we obtain an upper bound on the number of these periods which guarantees the optimality of the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) as the size of the production lot to be produced in the first period. The upper bound is given and the optimality holds for every problem with an horizon not less than the upper bound and for the infinite horizon problem ...

Nous cherchons à minimiser les connexions entre sous réseaux. En d'autres termes, nous cherchons à minimiser le nombre de noeuds situés à la frontière entre sous réseaux. Ce travail s'intègre dans une démarche qui a pour but de fournir aux conducteurs de véhicules automobiles un support qui leur permet de trouver le chemin le plus rapide entre deux localisations données. Deux algorithmes notés RP-1 et RP-2 sont présentés dans ce qui suit. Dans chacun de ces algorithmes, chaque noeud constitue initialement un sous réseau. Dans le premier algorithme, deux sous réseaux sont agrégés à chaque pas. Les deux sous réseaux choisis sont ceux qui conduisent au sous réseau de densité minimale. La densité d'un sous réseau est le quotient du nombre de noeuds situés sur la frontière par le nombre de noeuds du sous réseau. Dans le second algorithme, nous choisissons le sous réseau de densité maximale et nous lui agrégeons le sous réseau densité maximale qui lui est connecté. Nous poursuivons le processus jusqu'à atteindre la taille maximale acceptée, puis nous recommençons le processus jusqu'à épuisement des noeuds. Dans le second algorithme, l'intensité est définie comme le rapport entre le nombre de connexions entre les sous réseaux et le nombre de noeuds dans le sous réseau agrégé. Ces deux algorithmes sont ensuite comparés, puis appliqués à un vaste réseau de la Ville de Paris.

First, the manufacturing times can be chosen between g iven bounds. Such a production system is said to have controllable processing times. Second, an operation must start as soon as the previous operation on the same part (if any) is completed. A production system having this characteristic
Production planning using mixed lots

The demands are known at the end of each elementary period (at the end of each day or week for instance). The objective function (i.e. the criterion) is the sum of inventory, backlogging and set-up costs on a finite horizon. We use the concept

We give an heuristic which leads to a "good" solution, the amount of computation being only proportional to N * M, where N is the horizon of the problem and M the number of products involved.
A systems‐based approach for city logistics decision making

Using this approach, we present the layout of a simulation model called CILOSIM (CITY-LOGISTICS-SIMULATION). CILOSIM encapsulates three sub-models namely Goods to Vehicle Assignment model, Goods movement model and Impact assessment model. The Goods to vehicle assignment model allocates commodities to vehicles. The Goods movement model performs the

Some components can be used for assembling different products. Each product need several components of various types to be manufactured. Components are ordered to companies which usually cannot guarantee a fix delivery time. In other words, the delivery times are random. The costs to be taken into account are the

At each workcenter, the job has to be processed by any one of a given set of identical machines. Each machine has a preset schedule of operations, leaving out time-windows during which the job's processing must be scheduled. The manufacturing
