A Lot-Sizing Algorithm for Reducing Nervousness in MRP Systems
研究物料需求计划（MRP）系统中因新增或取消生产准备导致的波动性问题，通过修改Wagner-Whitin算法的准备成本，提出一种通用解法来降低波动及其成本。
Previous work dealt with the problems of nervousness in Material Requirements Planning (MRP) Systems when production schedules were modified to include setups which previously had not been scheduled. In this work we further examine nervousness and its cost. By modifying the setup costs used in the Wagner-Whitin algorithm, we develop a generalized solution methodology for dealing with situations in which new setups are added to the production schedule and existing setups are cancelled.
