Book Description
Companies frequently operate in an uncertain environment and many real life production planning problems imply volatility and stochastics of the customer demands. Thereby, the determination of the lot-sizes and the production periods significantly affects the profitability of a manufacturing company and the service offered to the customers. This thesis provides practice-oriented formulations and variants of dynamic lot-sizing problems in presence of restricted production resources and demand uncertainty. The demand fulfillment is regulated by service level constraints. Additionally, integrated production and remanufacturing planning under demand and return uncertainty in closed-loop supply chains is addressed. This book offers introductions to these problems and presents approximation models that can be applied under uncertainty. Comprehensive numerical studies provide managerial implications. The book is written for practitioners interested in supply chain management and production as well as for lecturers and students in business studies with a focus on supply chain management and operations management.

Large Scale Optimization in Supply Chains and Smart Manufacturing
Author: Jesús M. Velásquez-Bermúdez
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303022788X
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
In this book, theory of large scale optimization is introduced with case studies of real-world problems and applications of structured mathematical modeling. The large scale optimization methods are represented by various theories such as Benders’ decomposition, logic-based Benders’ decomposition, Lagrangian relaxation, Dantzig –Wolfe decomposition, multi-tree decomposition, Van Roy’ cross decomposition and parallel decomposition for mathematical programs such as mixed integer nonlinear programming and stochastic programming. Case studies of large scale optimization in supply chain management, smart manufacturing, and Industry 4.0 are investigated with efficient implementation for real-time solutions. The features of case studies cover a wide range of fields including the Internet of things, advanced transportation systems, energy management, supply chain networks, service systems, operations management, risk management, and financial and sales management. Instructors, graduate students, researchers, and practitioners, would benefit from this book finding the applicability of large scale optimization in asynchronous parallel optimization, real-time distributed network, and optimizing the knowledge-based expert system for convex and non-convex problems.

Structural Dynamics and Resilience in Supply Chain Risk Management
Author: Dmitry Ivanov
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319693050
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
This book offers an introduction to structural dynamics, ripple effect and resilience in supply chain disruption risk management for larger audiences. In the management section, without relying heavily on mathematical derivations, the book offers state-of-the-art concepts and methods to tackle supply chain disruption risks and designing resilient supply chains in a simple, predictable format to make it easy to understand for students and professionals with both management and engineering background. In the technical section, the book constitutes structural dynamics control methods for supply chain management. Real-life problems are modelled and solved with the help of mathematical programming, discrete-event simulation, optimal control theory, and fuzzy logic. The book derives practical recommendations for management decision-making with disruption risk in the following areas: How to estimate the impact of possible disruptions on performance in the pro-active stage? How to generate efficient and effective stabilization and recovery policies? When does one failure trigger an adjacent set of failures? Which supply chain structures are particular sensitive to ripple effect? How to measure the disruption risks in the supply chain?

Demand Flexibility in Supply Chain Planning
Author: Joseph Geunes
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441993479
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 95
Book Description
This work encapsulates the essential developments in this field into a single resource, as well as to set an agenda for further development in the field. This brief focuses on the demand flexibility in supply chains with fragmented results distributed throughout the literature. These results have strong implications for managing real-world complex operations planning problems. This book exploits dimensions of demand flexibility in supply chains and characterizes the best fit between demand properties and operations capabilities and constraints. The origins and seminal works are traced in integrated demand and operations planning and an in-depth documentation is provided for the current state of the art. Systems with inherent costs and constraints that must respond to some set of demands at a minimum cost are examined. Crucial unanswered questions are explored and the high-value research directions are highlighted for both practice and for the development of new and interesting optimization models and algorithms.
