Chapter 4 in Supply Chain Management and Advanced Planning, 2008, pp 81-106 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Why planning? Along a supply chain hundreds and thousands of individual decisions have to be made and coordinated every minute. These decisions are of different importance. They comprise the rather simple question “Which job has to be scheduled next on a respective machine?” as well as the very serious task whether to open or close a factory. The more important a decision is, the better it has to be prepared.
