Abstract: Abstract In this chapter we discuss online integrated production and outbound distribution scheduling (O-IPODS) problems, which are extensions of the offline IPODS problems discussed in Chap. 3 to an online environment. In such problems, jobs arrive over time and the parameters associated with each job are not known until it arrives. Following the classification scheme described in Chap. 3 for offline IPODS problems, O-IPODS problems can also be classified into several different classes in a similar way, and most of them can also be represented by the five-field notation described in Chap. 3 . For each class of O-IPODS problems, we discuss several representative problems, present the corresponding online algorithms for solving these problems, and describe the theoretical performance of these algorithms.
