Aggregate plans for multiagent systems [PDF]
International Journal of Agent-Oriented Software Engineering, 2017 We introduce the notion of 'aggregate plan', as a specification of the collective behaviour of a team of agents embedded in space. Aggregate plans are managed by self-organisation: they can be spread from a source agent, get iteratively diffused to the whole MAS, and be dynamically selected and carried on by each agent based on its local deliberation ...

Uncertain aggregate production planning
Soft Computing, 2012Based on uncertainty theory, multiproduct aggregate production planning model is presented, where the market demand, production cost, subcontracting cost, etc., are all characterized as uncertain variables. The objective is to maximize the belief degree of obtaining the profit more than the predetermined profit over the whole planning horizon.

The dynamics of aggregate planning [PDF]
Production Planning and Control, 2003 Recent software developments in system modelling via transfer function analysis now enables a much broader understanding of the dynamics of aggregate planning to be gained. In particular it opens up the possibility of exploiting filter theory as a focal point during algorithm design.

Journal of Comparative Economics, 1991
Abstract How planned is the centrally planned economy of the Soviet Union? The answer to this question depends primarily upon the degree to which plans are aggregated. This paper develops a framework for the empirical analysis of planned aggregation and applies it to the Soviet Union.

A Model for Aggregate Financial Planning
Management Science, 1972Financial planning in the firm is a dynamic process requiring that a variety of liquidity, profitability, capital structure, growth and stability variables be simultaneously considered. In recent years widespread attention has been given the time-wise interdependencies involved, but the focus has been conceptual and not directed to yield an ...

Work Study, 1995
A firm must plan its manufacturing activities at a variety of levels and operate these as a system. Aggregate planning is medium‐range capacity planning which typically covers a time horizon of anywhere from three to 18 months. The goal of aggregate planning is to achieve a production plan which will effectively utilize the organization′s resources to ...

Introduction to Aggregate Planning and Strategies
2021In this chapter, we discuss what aggregate planning is and how managers exploit various strategies in aggregate planning. A demand prediction for the planning time frame (usually 2–18 months) is required to establish an aggregate plan. Then, this aggregate plan provides an intermediate-term plan that determines the production rate, subcontracting ...

The myth of aggregate planning
Production Planning & Control, 1990Abstract Abstract. An empirical study explores the business environment, the nature of manufacturing, and the planning cycle, using a sample of enterprises with seasonally-biased sales profiles for their products. This enables both the principles and the practicalities of aggregate planning to stand comparison with the observed rubric of manufacturing ...

Stochastic Horizons for the Aggregate Planning Problem
Management Science, 1978This paper develops a methodology for showing how forecast horizons for stochastic planning problems relate to the planning procedures and the information system within the organization. To illustrate the approach we have chosen a relatively straightforward production problem where the firm can meet a fluctuating demand pattern through a combination ...

Aggregate planning for production
Business Horizons, 1967Abstract At its inception modern aggregate planning does pose difficulties, but these can be overcome—with results that greatly benefit the manager. For example, in developing this kind of planning one might have to consider whether inventory or size of the work force would absorb demand fluctuations.
