Abstract: | The problem of determining consistent and realistic reorder intervals in complex production-distribution environments was formulated as a large-scale, nonlinear, integer programming problem by Maxwell and Muckstadt. They show how the special structure of the problem permits its solution by a standard network flow algorithm. Reviewed is this model, provided necessary and sufficient conditions that characterize the solution, and show that the optimal partition of nodes in the production-distribution network is invariant to an arbitrary scaling of the set-up and holding cost parameters. |
