An experimental investigation and comparative evaluation of scheduling strategies for a dynamic job shop in a tool sharing environment

Creator:: Xu, Zhongkai
Abstract:: Good tool management and job operating strategies will result in reduction in tool inventory and associated costs. Very little empirical research has been conducted on a Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) as a whole in relation to its performances with tool movement approach, specifically in a dynamic job shop in a...

Two-stage flexible flow shop scheduling with blocking constraint and batching machines

Creator:: Panahi, Hadi
Abstract:: In this dissertation, a two stage flexible flow shop scheduling problem is studied, where in stage 1, there are identical batch processors (burnout ovens) and in stage 2, there are identical discrete processors (furnaces). Batch processors perform a pre-heating process on a batch of jobs at a time and discrete...

Bi-criteria group scheduling with learning in hybrid flow shops

Creator:: Bozorgirad, Mir Abbas
Abstract:: In this research, a bi-criteria group scheduling problem is investigated in hybrid flow shop (HFS) environments, where the parallel machines in each stage are unrelated, meaning not identical. The objective of the problem is to minimize a linear combination of the total weighted completion times as a means of complying...

Group scheduling in electronics manufacturing with integration of internal and external setup times

Creator:: Yazdani Sabouni, Mohammad Taghi
Abstract:: This research considers a combinatorial optimization scheduling problem in the assembly of printed circuit boards (PCBs) in electronic manufacturing. For the first time in this research, the preparation process, which is typically called kitting operation, is paid attention to and is performed along with the assembly operation, described in this...

Design and implementation of a heuristic-based decision support system for nurse scheduling

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...

Multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem with resource vacations and task splitting

Creator:: Buddhakulsomsiri, Jirachai
Abstract:: The research presented in this dissertation addresses the Multi-Mode Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (MMRCPSP) in the presence of resource unavailability. This research is motivated by the scheduling of engineering design tasks in automotive product development to minimize the project completion time, but addresses a general scheduling situation that is applicable...

Schedule-based material requirements planning : an artificial intelligence approach

Creator:: Kim, Sunuk
Abstract:: The objective of this research project was to identify the limitations associated with schedule-based Material Requirements Planning (SBMRP) and to present a knowledge-based expert system (KBES) approach to solve these problems. In SBMRP, the basic strategy is to use backward or forward scheduling based on an arbitrary dispatching rule, such...

An Expert system for flexible manufacturing system scheduling : knowledge acquisition and development

Creator:: Kim, Joohee
Abstract:: Expert systems have been suggested as a solution for difficult problems, including FMS scheduling. As one of the aspects of artificial intelligence (AI), expert systems have achieved considerable success in recent years in medical science, chemistry, and engineering. However, building an expert system is a difficult task, the most crucial...

Methodology for the multi-objective, resource-constrained project scheduling problem

Creator:: Nudtasomboon, Nudtapon
Abstract:: This study is concerned with the problem of resource-constrained project scheduling which includes splittable and nonsplittable jobs, renewable and nonrenewable resources, variation in resource availabi1ity, time-resource tradeoff, time-cost tradeoff, and multiple objectives. The problem is formulated as a zero-one integer programming model. A specialized solution technique is developed for the...
