Abstract
Most aggregate planning models utilize a constant productivity factor throughout the planning horizon. Recently new work has been done to incorporate changing productivity factors into aggregate planning models; however, some of these models have certain limitations and unrealistic assumptions. The objective of this paper is to present an overview of the state of the art in combining aggregate planning models with learning curve productivity considerations.Keywords
