Hierarchically integrated lot size optimization
Article Abstract:
A novel hierarchically integrated approach for improving the conceptual limitations of traditional production planning and control systems for make-to-stock job shop production is presented. It is shown that the hierarchical interdependence is not a top-down relationship but is supplemented by an explicit anticipation of the lower levels. The approach is superior to the deterministic multi level capacitated lot sizing model.

Evaluating focused factory benefits with queuing theory
Article Abstract:
Research describing the focused factory concept is presented. In particular a production process using lead-time as a performance measure is evaluated with respect to queueing models.
