Models for production planning under uncertainty: A review ☆ (2006, background): “Many authors, Eppen and Schrage (1981), Federgruen and Zipkin (1984), Van Houtum et al. (1996) and Diks and De Kok (1996), study multiechelon inventory problems in non-serial systems in a stochastic setting. Rosling (1989) and Langenhoff and Zijm (1990) prove the correspondence between non-serial sy”
