Valid inequalities for proportional lot-sizing and scheduling problem with fictitious microperiods

Abstract

This paper presents new extended formulations of mixed-integer linear programming (mip) models for small bucket problems. Such problems allow for one machine set-up operation at most during each time period. To ensure a high-quality solution despite this restrictive assumption, real periods (macroperiods) are usually split into several short fictitious microperiods with non-zero demand only at the end of the last microperiod of each macroperiod. The proposed model formulations are based on two properties of such a demand pattern. First, within each macroperiod, it is useful to have one start-up for each product at most. Second, the sequence of lots within a macroperiod has only negligible impact on solution quality, especially for short microperiods.
