From the reviews:
“A handbook on this topic is a valuable resource for academics and practitioners who want to access information or research a related topic. … The objective is to bridge the gap between quantitative academic research on decision support models and algorithms and the practical needs of industry. The book achieves this by giving a state-of-the-art overview of theory, methodologies, modeling approaches, and industrial practices, and by identifying gaps that future should address. … Volume 1 summarize historical and recent challenges.” (Stefan Minner, Interfaces, Vol. 41 (5), September-October, 2011)Planning Production and Inventories in the Extended Enterprise
