Planned lead times are crucial parameters in management of supply networks that continue
to be more and more extended with multiple levels of inventory of components and …

Production facilities are critical components of the global economy and supply chain. Firms
are forced to balance several competing objectives—from reducing operating costs by …

In this paper, we examine an optimisation problem for component replenishment in two-level
assembly systems under stochastic lead times. The Assembly-to-Order principle is applied …

Manufacturing companies strive to identify and manage the effects of unexpected
disruptions (risks) on their production processes, which affect their performance and …

Order release is a key production planning and control function, specifically in high variety
contexts. A large literature on release methods that balance the workload consequently …

This paper examines supply planning for two-level assembly systems under lead time
uncertainties. It is supposed that the demand for the finished product and its due date are …

In this paper, we formulate the material requirements planning) problem of a first-tier
supplier in an automobile supply chain through a fuzzy multi-objective decision model …

This paper presents a technique that mathematically models relationships between
operations and materials, which amends the usual technique used to model materials and …

This paper considers a multi period serial production systems for one product and deals with
the problem of planned lead-time calculation in a Material Requirement Planning (MRP) …

In this paper, we are interested on the inventory control problem of multi-stages supply chain
characterized by finite capacities of resources and delays due to processing times. The …
