The multiperiod cutting stock problem arises in the production planning and programming of many industries that have the cutting process as an important stage. Ordered items are required in different periods of a finite ...

Optimal power plant designs are achieved by means of a proposed multiperiod non-linear programming formulation that utilizes the net present value as objective function, while construction, operation and dismantling of the ...

This paper presents a general multiperiod optimization model, which simultaneously solves the design and planning decisions in multiproduct batch plants. Therefore, the trade-offs between both problems are taken into account ...

This work presents a multiperiod optimization model for multiproduct batch plants operating during several time periods with different characteristics because of seasonal and market fluctuations. This model simultaneously ...

In this paper, we deal with a generalized multi-period mean-variance portfolio selection problem with market parameters Subject to Markov random regime switchings. Problems of this kind have been recently considered in the ...

The timetabling subproblem of bus transit network planning determines the departure times for all trips of the lines along the entire day. Most of the public transport networks consider planning periods identical for all ...

New alternatives for the simultaneous design and planning of multiproduct batch plants in a multiperiod scenario are presented in this article. This formulation allows the flexible configuration of the plant in every time ...

A general multiperiod model to optimize simultaneously production planning and design decisions applied to multiproduct batch plants is proposed. This model includes deterministic seasonal variations of costs, prices, ...
