In this work, we face a variant of the capacitated lot sizing problem. This is a classical problem addressing the issue of aggregating lot sizes for a finite number of discrete periodic demands that need to be satisfied, thus setting up production resources and eventually creating inventories, while minimizing the overall cost. In the proposed variant we take into account lifetime constraints, which model products with maximum fixed shelflives due to several possible reasons, including regulations or technical obsolescence. We propose four formulations, derived from the literature on the classical version of the problem and adapted to the proposed variant. An extensive experimental phase on two datasets from the literature is used to test and compare the performance of the proposed formulations.

Abstract

In this work, we face a variant of the capacitated lot sizing problem. This is a classical problem addressing the issue of aggregating lot sizes for a finite number of discrete periodic demands that need to be satisfied, thus setting up production resources and eventually creating inventories, while minimizing the overall cost. In the proposed variant we take into account lifetime constraints, which model products with maximum fixed shelflives due to several possible reasons, including regulations or technical obsolescence. We propose four formulations, derived from the literature on the classical version of the problem and adapted to the proposed variant. An extensive experimental phase on two datasets from the literature is used to test and compare the performance of the proposed formulations.
