Abstract

We consider a lotsizing problem in a multi-stage production setting with capacity-constrained resources and a general production structure which may change during the planning horizon. Based on an earlier presentation [1], we focus on some novel concepts of capacity planning. We also present computational results for test problems obtained with the most recent version of our planning software.
