A bibliography of non-deterministic lot-sizing models

Abstract

Non-deterministic lot-sizing models are considered which serve for an explicit determination of lot sizes in an uncertain environment. Taxonomy components for such models are suggested and a bibliography structured according to these components is presented. The taxonomy components are numeric characteristics of a lot-sizing problem, names of uncertain parameters and names of approaches to model the uncertainty. The bibliography covers more than 300 publications since the year 2000.

Keywords:

• lot-sizing
• uncertainty
• production management
• inventory management
