Wemmerlöv corrected PPB

Wemmerlöv corrected PPB

Class: ULSAlgorithms.Heuristics.WemmerlovModifiedPartPeriodBalancingSolver

Family: Part-period
Time: O(T)
Memory: O(T)
Applicability: Stationary setup, production and relevant holding costs

Description

Wemmerlöv corrected PPB is a fast ULS heuristic in the Part-period family. It constructs a feasible replenishment plan without claiming an optimality proof. Use it only when the documented applicability conditions match the instance.

Minimal API

IUlsSolver solver = new WemmerlovModifiedPartPeriodBalancingSolver();
UlsSolveResult result = solver.Solve(problem);
