Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To provide effective managerial support to the decisions related to the production planning and scheduling processes, it is useful to partition this set of decisions in a hierarchical framework. In the resulting system higher level decisions impose constraints to lower level actions, and lower level decisions provide the necessary feedback to reevaluate higher level actions. The purpose of this paper is to suggest optimum procedures to deal with the resulting subproblems, and to analyze the interaction mechanisms among the different hierarchical levels. Computational results are given. (Author).

Book excerpt: This report describes the development of hierarchical planning systems to support medium range planning and operational decisions in a batch processing production environment. In this approach, higher level decisions impose constraints to lower level actions, and lower level decisions provide the necessary feedback to reevaluate higher level actions. An analysis of the existing methodology to design hierarchical production systems is given. Computational results are presented.

Book excerpt: This paper presents a hierarchical approach to plan and schedule production in a manufacturing environment that can be modeled as a two stage process. A conceptual framework for this approach is described. The specific mathematical models proposed for the various hierarchical levels are discussed. The methodology is evaluated in an actual setting. The performance of the hierarchical system is contrasted with an MRP design. Encouraging results are reported. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is intended to expand the dialogue and interest among both practitioners and academicians in a problem area worthy of attention by all. The concept of disaggregation admits to our current inability to solve many types of interrelated hierarchical problems simultaneously. It offers instead a sequential, iterative process as a workable and necessary procedure. The papers in this volume are selected from those presented at a Disaggregation Conference held in March, 1977 at The Ohio State University. We heartily applaud all those who participated in the conference and particularly appreci ate the cooperation of those authors whose work is published in this collection. Part A contains four papers which define the various dimensions of disaggregation. The paper by Martin Starr, which was the text of his luncheon address at the conference, provides several interesting perspectives to the problem. Although disaggregation suggests tear ing apart, as Professor Starr illustrates with his butterfly example, it also suggests a putting together or a synthesis which recognizes interrelationships and dependencies. The next paper by Lee Kra jewski and Larry Ritzman offers a general model of disaggregation for both the manufacturing and service sectors. After reading the papers in this section, as well as the papers in subsequent sections, you will identify other dimensions to hierarchical decision making which go beyond this generalized model.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design Models for Hierarchical Organizations: Computation, Information, and Decentralization provides state-of-the-art research on organizational design models, and in particular on mathematical models. Each chapter views the organization as an information processing entity. Thus, mathematical models are used to examine information flow and decision procedures, which in turn, form the basis for evaluating organization designs. Each chapters stands alone as a contribution to organization design and the modeling approach to design. Moreover, the chapters fit together and that totality gives us a good understanding of where we are with this approach to organizational design issues and where we should focus our research efforts in the future.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper proposes and tests a framework for decomposing a large scale production planning problem, modeled as a mixed-integer linear program. We interpret this decomposition in the context of Hax and Meal's hierarchical framework for production planning. The procedure decomposes the production planning problem into two subproblems which correspond to the aggregate planning subproblem and a disaggregation subproblem in the Hax-Meal framework. The linking mechanism for these two subproblems is an inventory consistency relationship which is priced out by a set of Lagrange multipliers. The best values for the multipliers are found by an iterative procedure which may be interpreted as a feedback mechanism in the Hax-Meal framework. At each iterative, the procedure finds both a lower bound on the optimal value to the production planning problem and a feasible solution from which an upper bound is obtained. Our computational tests show that the best feasible solution found from this procedure is very close to optimal. For thirty-six test problems the percentage deviation from optimality never exceeds 4.4%, and the average percentage deviation is 2.2%. Twenty-seven of the test problems are mixed-integer linear programs with 240 zero-one variables, while nine test problems have 480 zero-one variables. (Author).

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hierarchical and Supply Chain Planning describes the application of hierarchical planning techniques to all major functional areas of supply chain planning, including production, distribution, warehousing, transportation, inventory management, forecasting and performance management. The book reviews well-known, original hierarchical production planning techniques and implementations dating back several decades and numerous more current hierarchical planning methods and applications covering an array of supply chain activities. A number of novel hierarchical planning techniques and algorithms covering different components of supply chain planning are offered as is an original approach for integrating supply chain measurements into systems such as the balanced scorecard which evaluate total firm performance. The book covers the interests of private industry practitioners, academic researchers, and students of operations, logistics and supply chain management and planning.
