| Abstract: | This study considers a stock cutting problem for a paper plant that produces sheets of various sizes for a finished goods inventory that services random customer demand. The controller decides when to shut down and restart the paper machine and how to cut completed paper rolls into sheets of paper. The objective is to minimize long-run expected average costs related to paper waste, shutdowns, backordering, and holding finished goods inventory. |
