The topic of supply chain management in dairy industry has received a great deal of
attention in recent years due to its structural characteristics, such as long sequence …

In this paper we address the production scheduling and distribution planning problem in a
yoghurt production line of the multi-product dairy plants. A mixed integer linear programming …

This paper considers a dairy industry problem on integrated planning and scheduling of set
yoghurt production. A mixed integer linear programming formulation is introduced to …

The lot-sizing and production scheduling problem in a multiproduct yogurt production line of
a real-life dairy plant is addressed in this work. A new mixed discrete/continuous-time mixed …

Abstract Despite Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) is widely known in today's supply
chain literature, its impact on supply chain's performance has been neglected. Furthermore …

This work presents the application of a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model that
was previously developed in our group for the lot-sizing and production scheduling problem …

This paper proposes a new dynamic algorithm based on simulation approach and multi-
objective optimization to solve the FJSP with transportation assignment. The objectives …

While mathematically sophisticated methods can be used to better understand and improve
processes, the nonlinear nature of food processing models can make their dynamic …

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to present a “network” framing of food supply
arrangements. Such frameworks have been asked for in previous research as supplements …
