Optimization models for a lot sizing and scheduling problem on parallel production lines that share scarce resources
RAIRO. Operations Research, Tome 55 (2021) no. 3, pp. 1949-1970

The purpose of this paper is to propose mathematical models to represent a lot sizing and scheduling problem on multiple production lines that share scarce resources and to investigate the computational performance of the proposed models. The main feature that differentiates this problem from others in the literature is that the decision on which lines to organize should be taken considering the availability of the necessary resources. The optimization criterion is the minimization of the costs incurred in the production process (inventory, backlogging, organization of production lines, and sequence-dependent setup costs). Nine mixed integer optimization models to represent the problem are given and, also, the results of an extensive computational study carried out using a set of instances from the literature. The computational study indicates that an efficient formulation, able to provide high quality solutions for large sized instances, can be obtained from a classical model by making the binary production variables explicit, using the facility location reformulation as well as the single commodity flow constraints to eliminate subsequences. Moreover, from the results, it is also clear that the consideration of scarce resources makes the problem significantly more difficult than the traditional one.
