Abstract: Abstract Deteriorating production processes are common in reality. Although every production process starts in an ‘in-control’ state to produce items of acceptable quality, it may shift to an ‘out-of-control’ state, owing to ageing, at any random time and produce defective items. In the present article, we study the Economic Lot Scheduling Problem (ELSP) with imperfect production processes having significant changeovers between the products. The mathematical models are developed for the ELSP using both the common cycle approach and the time-varying lot sizes approach, taking into account the effects of imperfect quality and process restoration. Numerical examples are cited to illustrate the solution procedures and to compare the performances of the solution methodologies adopted to solve the ELSP.
