Creator:: Shroff, Raj N.
Abstract:: Automated storage and Retrieval (AS/R) systems have had a significant impact on storage and retrieval of finished goods, work-in-process, and raw materials and supplies. A microcomputer-based simulation model was developed to evaluate different unit load AS/R systems serving multiple input sources and output destinations. The simulation results were statistically analyzed...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: layouts, the class based arrangement produced significantly higher throughput for all scheduling policies

Creator:: Rai, Nivruti
Abstract:: Scheduling a continuous manufacturing flow shop environment with several machines, stochastic arrival of demands, different product requirements and limited resources is a complex task. This research develops a methodology for scheduling products in glass fiber industry. The system consists of two components. An optimizing linear program determines the optimal solution...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: : Design and Implementation of a Production Scheduling System for Continuous Manufacturing Environment

Creator:: Kuo, Chun-Ho
Abstract:: An evaluation of scheduling heuristics for non-identical parallel processors was performed. There has been limited research that has focused on scheduling of parallel processors. This research generalizes the results from prior work in this area and examines complex scheduling rules in terms of flow time, tardiness, and proportion of tardy...

Full Text:: Evaluation of scheduling heuristics for non-identical parallel

Creator:: Smith, Terrence A.
Abstract:: An experimental investigation of factors effecting scheduling a system of parallel, non-identical processors using a series of experimental designs was carried out. System variables included were processor capacities relationships, sequencing and assignment rules, job size, and product demand distributions. The effect of the variables was measured by comparing mean flow...

Creator:: Sitompul, Darwin
Abstract:: A decision support system (DSS) for nurse scheduling in hospitals is developed and implemented on microcomputer. The system includes algorithms and databases for developing weekly work and shift patterns and combining these into working schedules for nurses for a specified time horizon, and interface modules for the user to interact...

Creator:: Juwono, Cynthia P.
Abstract:: A multistage production system consists of a number of production stages that are interrelated, that is the output from one stage forms input to the next stage. There are constraints associated with each stage as well as constraints imposed by the overall system. Besides, there are multiple objectives that need...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: problem of scheduling multistage production systems in food processing industry. The system and products

Creator:: Chen, Hsueh-Jen
Abstract:: Today's manufacturing environment is characterized by competition and continuous change in product and process requirements. The concept of "design for manufacturability" integrates product specifications with manufacturing capabilities by considering the design and manufacturing phases as an integrated system, evaluating the combined system during the design phase of a product ,...
