Dear colleagues,
we are kindly inviting you to submit an abstract to the stream LOT SIZING AND RELATED TOPICS (organized by the EURO Working Group on Lot Sizing - EWG LOT)
at the
21st Conference of the International Federation of Operational Research Societies (IFORS 2017),
Québec City Convention Centre, Québec City, Canada
July 17-21, 2017
http://ifors2017.ca/
If you are interested in organizing a special session (consisting of at least 4 presentations) within this stream, please contact one of the stream organizers.
Within this stream we seek contributions to cover recent advances in lot-sizing on the following topics among others:
- Applications of lot sizing in real world cases including implementation of case-studies discussing organizational challenges and data issues;
- Lot sizing for smart factories (industry 4.0);
- Integration of lot-sizing with other problems, such as: scheduling, distribution and vehicle routing, procurement, and cutting and packing;
- Extensions of lot sizing models, including (but are not limited to): non-triangular setups, period-overlapping setups,
multiple resource types, blocking, synchronization, multi-level and multi-machine systems, perishable goods, green lot sizing;
- Solution methods for lot-sizing problems: heuristics, metaheuristics, exact methods, and hybrid approaches;
- Replanning and rescheduling, especially in the context of stochastic production environments.
- Stochastic lot-sizing problems
