Abstract (EN):
In this work we present single-stage formulations for the integrated soft drink lot-sizing and scheduling problem with two-stage synchronization. It is a multi-product, multi-machine problem, with sequence-dependent setup times and costs. Without loss of generality, these single-stage reformulations address the problem correctly and, in general, reduce the size of the synchronized two-stage model of Ferreira, Morabito e Rangel (2009), regarding the number of variables and constraints. The preliminary computational experiments on real-world instances from a soft-drink company show the competitiveness of the single-stage models against other formulations and solution approaches reported in the literature.
