Integrated Operational Planning and Scheduling under Uncertainty

Abstract An integrated operational planning and medium-term scheduling framework which takes into account various forms of market and process uncertainty will be presented. The framework entails the integration of a novel and robust Planning with Production Disaggregation Model with the robust counterpart of an industrially validated mediumterm scheduling model through a forward rolling horizon scheme. The operational planning and scheduling under uncertainty framework has been applied to an industrial case study in order to demonstrate that it can address relevant planning and scheduling problems.
