Abstract:This article presents a nonlinear programming mathematical model that coordinates inventories and production in a logistics network made up of plants, distributors, and retailers. The procedure for formulating and solving the mathematical model uses nonlinear programming, linear programming, heuristics, and Lagrangian relaxation in stages.
