The model system is an approach to solve the dynamic multilocation warehouse (or plant) sizing problem by integrating different models and methods: (1) A simulation model of System Dynamics type for analyzing effects of different locations and capacities on demand, cost, and operating results; (2) An Integer Programming model for determining warehouse configurations, i.e. effective locations, and capacities.
