The rapidly developing worldwide marketplace is leading to the geographical
dispersion of production, assembly and distribution operations. This
paper deals with three aspects of international logistics networks:
strategic, tactical and operational. The strategic level designs
the logistics network, including prescribing facility locations,
production technologies and plant capacities. The tactical level
prescribes material flow management policies, including production
levels at all plants, assembly policy, inventory levels, and lot
sizes. The operational level schedules operations to assure in-time
delivery of final products to customers. This paper reviews the literature
that deals with strategic, tactical and operational levels and discusses
relevant modelling issues.
