Der Umgang mit Unsicherheit in der Produktion bei der Nutzung von nachwachsenden Rohstoffen - State of the Art

Abstract

The production planning with renewable resources faces several special problems compared to common planning methods with inputs which are ?always available?. Due to their unsteadiness in growth, external influences like weather and natural resources and specific transport and storage requirements, renewable resources have some variances in quality as well as in quantity. This paper examines the suitability of common production planning methods, concepts and other approaches according to the uncertainty of renewable resources.
