R. Conterno, G. Fiorio, Giuseppe Menga, Agostino Villa

The present paper is devoted to the mathematical formalization of the production planning and control problem in manufacturing systems. A hierarchical decentralized approach to the production planning in a sequence of workshops is proposed and contrasted with respect to the well-known MRP and OPT techniques.
