Transshipments, monitored movements of material at the same echelon of a supply chain, represent an effective pooling mechanism. With a single exception, research on transshipments overlooks replenishment lead times. The only approach for two-location inventory systems with non-negligible lead...

This paper presents a new algorithm for the dynamic Multi-Level Ca-pacitated Lot Sizing Problem with Setup Carry-Overs (MLCLSP-L). TheMLCLSP-L is a big-bucket model that allows the production of any num-ber of products within a period, but it incorporates partial sequencing of theproduction...

This paper presents an optimization-based solution approach for the dynamicmulti-level capacitated lot sizing problem (MLCLSP) with positive leadtimes. The key idea is to solve a series of mixed-integer programs in an iterativefix-and-optimize algorithm. Each of these programs is optimized over...
