Lot sizing and scheduling by mixed integer programming has been a hot research topic in the last 20 years. Researchers have been trying to develop stronger formulations, as well as to incorporate real-world requirements from different applications. This paper illustrates some of these requirements and demonstrates how small- and big-bucket models have been adapted and extended. Motivation comes from different industries, especially from process and fast-moving consumer goods industries.
