The definition of evaluation criteria for possible solutions, the development of mathematical models and heuristic methods for determining the optimal solution, optimum Pareto solutions are the focus of the course. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The course aims at providing tools to face strategic, tactical and operational decisions in the Supply Chain Management; it will provide management techniques (math programming, scenario analysis). The consolidation of the proposed methodologies is supported by the development of case studies; models will be implemented and solved thanks to optimization software and spreadsheet Excel. TEACHING METHODS Traditional lectures in Italian are integrated with lab lessons, seminars and individual/group works. SYLLABUS/CONTENT 9 ECTS credits Analysis of some problems in the supply chain management: production, scheduling, transportation and distribution problems; network design problems; inventory management and forecasting. Methods: Linear, Integer and binary programming, multi-objective optimization, graph theory, what if analysis, heuristics. Some software will be used for solving the analysed problems (i.e. LINDO, MPL, Excel) 6 ECTS credits Analysis of some problems in the supply chain management: production, scheduling, transportation and distribution problems; network design problems.
