An algorithm for the MRP parameterization under uncertainty
Résumé
The supply planning of assembly systems under lead time uncertainty is studied. The used criteria is the sum of the average holding cost for the components, the average backlogging cost for the finished product, and the setup cost. The studied policy avoids the nervousness and the decision variables are the planned lead times of components, and the periodicity of the periodic ordering quantity method is also a decision variable. A mathematical method that gives the optimal values for these parameters is given.
