Abstract

Research on integration of supply chain and scheduling is relatively recent, andnumber of studies on this topic is increasing. This study provides a comprehensiveliterature survey about Integrated Supply Chain Scheduling (ISCS) models to helpidentify deficiencies in this area. For this purpose, it is thought that this study willcontribute in terms of guiding researchers working in this field. In this study,existing literature on ISCS problems are reviewed and summarized by introducingthe new classification scheme. The studies were categorized by considering thefeatures such as the number of customers (single or multiple), product lifespan(limited or unlimited), order sizes (equal or general), vehicle characteristics(limited/sufficient and homogeneous/heterogeneous), machine configurations andnumber of objective function (single or multi objective). In addition, properties ofmathematical models applied for problems and solution approaches are alsodiscussed.
