Abstract
In this document we report on research to develop and study mathematical models for production smoothing in a dynamic production environment. This effort was part of a larger study whose goal was to investigate the production planning practices for an electronic equipment manufacturing firm, and in particular to explore possible mechanisms for improvement. To motivate the presentation of our research, we indicate the nature of this production environment.
