This paper investigates the dynamic inventory model for the case when production in a period is restricted to a finite set of specified values. The model allows the production rate to be any value in the set (0, P, 2P, ..., mP), where m is a non-negative integer. It is assumed that the setup...

This article considers the production planning problem of a shop which can produce in either one shift or two shifts. Setup cost is charged whenever there is an increase in the production rate from one period to the next. Efficient planning horizon procedures have been developed for this model....
