Rolling-horizon production optimization

This technical brief treats rolling-horizon production optimization as a decision system: define its state, objective, feasible actions and evidence before comparing algorithms.

Practitioner lens

A model for rolling-horizon production optimization should state its objective and feasible set explicitly. Hidden penalty weights or relaxed constraints can make an impressive result operationally impossible.

First experiment

Compare against a transparent baseline under both routine conditions and deliberately adverse scenarios.

This is an original educational brief. It is a starting point for discussion, not a claim that one technique fits every supply chain.
