Abstract

The problem of defining lot-sizes for single- product multi-stage assembly systems under various assumptions has received considerable attention in the literature. This paper compares several heuristic procedures with an optimal algorithm in the case of constant demand over an infinite horizon. A computational experiment shows a modified version of a well known heuristic to be promising for practical purposes.
