Capacitated Lot Sizing

A collaborative planning framework combining the Lagrangian Relaxation method and Genetic Algorithms is developed to coordinate and optimize the production planning of the independent partners linked by material flows in multiple tier supply chains. Linking constraints and dependent demand constraints were added to the monolithic Multi-Level, multi-item Capacitated Lot Sizing Problem (MLCLSP) for supply chains. Model MLCLSP was Lagrangian relaxed and decomposed into facility-separable sub-problems based on the separability of it. Genetic Algorithms was incorporated into Lagrangian Relaxation method to update Lagrangian multipliers, which coordinated decentralized decisions of the facilities in supply chains. Production planning of independent partners could be appropriately coordinated and optimized by this framework without intruding their decision authorities and private information. This collaborative planning schema was applied to a large set problem in supply chain production planning. Experimental results show that the proposed coordination mechanism and procedure come close to optimal results as obtained by central coordination in terms of both performance and robustness.

Theory And Experiment

The absorption spectrum of gaseous sulphur hexafluoride has been measured in the spectral region from approximately 20 to 140 cm−1 at 339 K. The experiments were performed over a range of densities from 65 to 109.6 amagat (for SF6, 1 amagat = 45.3 mol m−3), using FTIR spectroscopy. From the density dependence of the absorption, the collision-induced spectrum was clearly separated from the strong allowed transitions of vibrational difference bands at 26 and 91 cm−1. Our results for the induced spectrum differ substantially, both in overall magnitude and in shape, from earlier data. We interpret the absorption as due to anisotropic overlap induction; however, a substantial contribution from a hexadecapolar mechanism cannot be ruled out. We can place an upper limit of approximately 7 × 10−42 esu on the hexadecapole moment. The induced line shape is calculated using information theory, based on our knowledge of the zeroth and second moment of the frequency spectrum. Reasonable agreement is found between theory and experiment.
