This paper addresses scheduling of lot sizes in a multi-plant, multi-item, multi-period, capacitated environment with inter-plant transfers. A real-world problem in a company manufacturing steel rolled products provided motivation to this research. A Lagrangean-based approach, embedded with a lot sh...
