To handle these challenges, we introduce the Strategy of Levelled Order Release (LOR) for workload balancing over time. The contributions of this work are (1) the workload balancing concept LOR, (2) a discrete-time Markov chain for performance analysis, and (3) an algorithm for capacity planning under performance constraints in order fulfilment systems with LOR.Stochastic ordersMarkov processesWorkflowManagementStochastic orders.Markov processes.WorkflowManagement.519.2Mohring Uta1279001NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910595088603321Performance analysis and capacity planning of multi-stage stochastic order fulfilment systems with levelled order release and order deadlines3014369UNINA
