Abstract
Flexibility subsumes the abilities of a value-creating or service-providing system to cope with the abruptly varying needs (requests) appearing from its uncontrollable environment (Schneeweiß and Schneider, 1999). Flexibility issues are of interest for both the system deployment level (operational planning) as well as with regard to the system configuration level (tactical planning).
