Abstract
In this paper we survey different solution approaches and theoretical results for deterministic, dynamic, multi-stage, uncapacitated lot-sizing problems. After a brief outline of the large amount and variety of different potential lot-sizing problems we describe a class of multi-stage problems with assembly structure. Respective mathematical formulations for these problems are given, and theoretical results as well as exact and heuristic solution procedures including numerical results are outlined.
