An efficient methodology for scheduling general flexible manufacturing systems

Creator:

Sonthinen, Adulwit

Abstract:

Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) have evolved rapidly over the last decade. One important factor that influences the performance of FMS is scheduling. Scheduling in an FMS differs from that in a conventional job-shop because each operation of a job may be performed by any one of several machines. Most studies...

A methodology for real-time scheduling of jobs with splitting on unrelated parallel machines

Creator:

Subur, Fenny

Abstract:

Unrelated parallel machines are machines that perform the same function but have different capacity or capability. Thus, the processing time of each job would be different on machines of different types. The scheduling environment considered is dynamic in both job release time and machine availability. Additionally, each job considered can...

The role of duplicating and subcontracting processes in the design of cellular manufacturing systems

Creator:

Ramakrishna, Prabha

Abstract:

Cellular Manufacturing Systems (CMS) have provided significant increase in manufacturing productivity over the last two decades. This has been achieved because CMS can overcome the problems due to frequent setups, high in-process inventories, long throughput times and complex planning and coordination commonly associated with a batch-type manufacturing operation. The underlying...
