Planning and Scheduling

One of the basic concepts of The Data Center is that combining existing mathematical models will lead to better modeling in practice.  In situations where production takes place under a make-to-stock policy, there are a number of different models that potentially could be combined.

 

The following gives a list of production planning and scheduling models published by researchers at The Data Center.  All of these models have been applied in the process industries.
