DOIAbstract
Sawmills are a key element for the forest industry. It is not a simple task to plan correctly their production, taking into account that there are many criteria that are appropriate for their operation. Besides, the results obtained from the use of different objectives present strong conflicts: the optimal value in a performance measure negatively affects the rest. Usual criteria, such as benefits, yield, productivity, inventory level, demand satisfaction, etc., generate very different solutions. Taking into account this context, this paper presents a formulation for the optimal planning of the daily production of sawmills. The problem is solved using a Goal Programming approach that allows different criteria to be appropriately weighted. F...
