1 Lot sizing and scheduling
Continuous manufacturing, flow shop, make-to-stock: Longer planning horizon Long runs, large setup times: cost minimization Usually repetitive structure: rotation schedule Degrees of freedom: cycle length, sequencing within cycle Intuition: increasing lot size  inventory costs per unit of time  setup costs per unit of time  Examples in process industry: AKZO, Grolsch, NedCar

2 ELSP ELSP: Economic lot sizing and scheduling problem
Determination of lot sizes, sequence of lots (cycle) Cost minimization: setup times/costs vs. inventory costs Standard ELSP: 1 machine: produces item j with rate qj per time unit. n items with processing time pj  qj=1/pj constant demand rate gj invent. costs hj, setup cost cjk (j  k), setup time sjk cycle: j1, …,jh, corresponding run times: tj1, …,tjh De grote formules hoeven niet geleerd te worden. De symbolen moeten wel bekend zijn, en met deze moet je een gegeven formule kunnen interpreteren. De interpretatie is dus wel belangrijk!

3 Feasibility check Feasibility  q > g (demand can be met)
 g/q < 1   < 1 (=machine utilization) When m>1 and n>1:

4 m=1, n=1, s=0 Notation: demand rate g, production rate q, cycle length x inventory over time during a cycle: t(q-g) t x tq = gx  t=gx/q Average inventory over x:

5 M=1, n=1, s=0, cont. Demand over cycle = gx
length production run to meet demand = gx/q = t inventory growth rate = (q-g) maximal inventory = (q-g)gx/q Averaged inventory costs per unit of time: Averaged setup costs per unit of time: Optimal cycle length: Optimal lot size: Idle time = cycle length - length production run = x - t = , where  = machine utiliz. Recall the feasibility check: <1 !

6 M=1, n=1, s=0, cont. If production rate is ‘high’, then:
the lot size is then: this is the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) assumption EOQ: setup cost, but no setup time as long as EOQ-lot size is feasible if increase x until

7 Examples M=1, n=1, s=0 q=90, c=$2000, g=50, h=$20, no setup time
determine cycle time determine lot size determine machine utilization determine idle time how much setup time is allowed, when cycle time remains optimal? q=0.3333, c=$90, g=0.10, h=$5, no setup time determine x, lot size determine total cost/day q=0.3333, c=$90, g=0.10, h=$5 in discrete time Find the optimal lot size by comparing total costs/day for relevant lot sizes

8 M=1, n>1, once per cycle, setups=0
demand for prod. j over cycle = gjx, length prod.run of item j = gjx/qj cycle consists of single runs of each item with identical cycle lengths: rotation schedule (sequence independent) Now: Hence:

9 Example 7.3.1: M=1, n>1, once per cycle, setups=0
determine machine utilization determine cycle time determine EOQ-cycle time

10 m=1, n>1, j once per cycle, setups>0
Solution OK if: = idle time in case of sequence independent setup times: no sequencing required in case of sequence dependent setup times sjk minimal by solving corresponding TSP, denote minimum by T Note: there are (n-1)! different sequences (rotation!!) if then increase x until: (i.e., machine is never idle) TSP is NP hard SST heuristic may also be applied

11 Example 7.3.2: M=1, n>1, once per cycle, sequence dependent setups
how many possible sequences are there? when is a sequence feasible? determine the optimal sequence by enumeration

12 §7.4: m=1, n>1, general cycle, setup times 0
Feasible solution exists if and only if: (recall that: ) NP hard problem: no efficient algorithms Define sequence as: where: jk=k-th item in the sequence

13 m=1, n>1, general cycle, setup times 0
Define: qk = production rate of k-th item in the sequence tk = production time of k-th item in the sequence uk = idle time after k-th item in the sequence x = cycle time v = time from start of production of item i in the k-th position until the next production of item i (in same or next cycle) then: qktk = total production during tk = total demand during v (demand must be met!) = gkv Hence:

14 m=1, n>1, general cycle, setup times 0
The highest inventory level is: (qk-gk)tk  total inventory cost for k-th run: ELSP formulation: Ik = all positions where k is produced Lk = all items produced during v Meet demand k over cycle Meet demand k over v Cycle length

15 m=1, n>1, general cycle, setup times 0 (cont.)
ELSP master problem: sequence determination ELSP subproblem: determination of cycle length, production & idle time Frequency Fixing & Scheduling (FFS) heuristic 3 phases: 1. Computation of relative frequencies yk, tk 2. Adjustment of relative frequencies  y’k, t’k 3. Sequencing Assumption: the yk runs of item k are of equal length (tk), and evenly spaced

16 FFS heuristic, phase 1: frequency fixing
Computation of relative frequencies yk, tk prod. k is run with frequency yk. Determine yk as follows: determine tk: Lagrange multiplier Choose “appropriate” x and determine the resulting yk’s Relaxatie door weglaten geheeltalligheidseisvan yk Als gevolg blijft een model over met 1 set vergelijkingen. Vervolgens wordt hier een Lagrange relaxatie op uitgevoerd. Merk op: indien geen setup time, dan valt Lagrange parameter weg! otherwise: =0

17 FFS heuristic, phase 2: frequency adjustment
Computation of adjusted relative frequencies y’k, t’k Adjust yk and tk so that yk is integer result from literature: when the yk’s are chosen so that they are integer, and powers of 2  solution is within 6% of optimum Hence: determine y’k and the associated Bijv. y1=0.2, y2=0.8, y3=1.6 dan, x=5: y’1=1, y’2=4, y’3=8

18 FFS heuristic, phase 3: sequencing
Computation of sequence in cycle Sequencing problem is equivalent to scheduling jobs on y’max parallel machines, minimizing the makespan Determine y’max=max(y’1,…y’n) = number of parallel machines For each item k, there are y’k jobs of length t’k, evenly spaced, i.e.: when m=6, and y’k=3, then there are two choices: assign the 3 jobs to (1,3,5) or to (2,4,6) Use variant of LPT-heuristic (longest processing time first) to assign the jobs in decreasing order of (y’k,t’k), with the additional restriction that jobs must be evenly spaced Finally, concatenate the schedules of the y’max machines

19 FFS examples 7.4.1: without setup times, x=2
7.4.2.: with setup times, x=3 1 machine, 4 items: Items qj gj hj cj sj

20 FFS example schedule for y’4=4
Inventory levels 100 Item1 Item2 80 Item3 60 Item3 40 20 0.5 1 1.5 2 time Item4

21 More general ELSP models
m identical parallel machines, n items: each item must be assigned to exactly one machine: if cycle times are identical on all machines, the loads on the respective machines must be balanced  j’s added up per machine must be < 1  LPT heuristic may be applied to determine a good assignment if cycle times are allowed to be different on the machines: * calculate cycle time for each item, as if it were a single item model * rank items in decreasing order of the cycle times * Use sequence in ranking to fill machines as long as j<1 NOTE: may lead to infeasible solution!  swapping m machines in series: rotation schedules on both machines are the same there may be waiting times on machine 2 (machine 1 may wait) inventory costs remain the same; setup costs double Waiting times when an item with a short processing time follows an item with a long processing time Machine 1 may wait to reduce WIP
