| Summary: | In this paper, a comprehensive optimization problem is developed for a composite of an assembly line reconfiguration problem with multiple lines and a capacitated lot-sizing problem. Multiple products are considered, whose demand is uncertain and is dynamically forecasted. The production planner is assumed to be risk-averse, and decisions are made contingent upon the risk preference. To model the problem, a stochastic program with two stages is utilized. A solution approach is devised using a divide-and-conquer algorithm, which incorporates a set of valid inequalities. The effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed solution approach are assessed through a series of computational tests. Finally, a case study focusing on an engine production process is presented, leading to the derivation of several valuable insights.
