Forecasting is an under estimated field of research in supply chain management. Uncertainties inherent in customer demands make it difficult for supply chains to achieve just-in-time inventory replenishment, resulting in loosing sales opportunities or keeping excessive chain-wide inventories. In this paper, we propose two adaptive inventorycontrol models for a supply chain consisting of one supplier and multiple retailers.

Manufacturers constantly have to encounter fluctuated product demands. Accordingly, it is required to establish a production schedule that meets the future demands and concurrently has a low level of daily labor/materials’ deviation. The study "Evolutionary algorithm with feasibility rule based constraint-handling method for intelligent production scheduling" constructs an evolutionary algorithm for achieving this task. The Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm and the feasibility rule based method for constraint handling are integrated to develop this evolutionary algorithm.
