Abstract In this study, Resource Dependent Assembly Line Balancing approach is adapted to the concept of Parallel Assembly Line Balancing and this problem is called Parallel Assembly Line Balancing with Resource Dependent Task Times (RDALB_P). A binary integer linear mathematical model is proposed for RDALB_P.

Color Line and the Assembly Line
2018Between World Wars 1 and 2, the Ford Motor Company globalized its sales and production and, in the process, became an exporter of American race practices and what this transnational study calls “white managerialism.” In examining three societies—Brazil, South Africa, and the United States—where Ford supported white supremacist political and social ...

The Color Line and the Assembly Line
2018IN 1903 HENRY FORD INCORPORATED the Ford Motor Company. That same year the sociologist, historian, and activist W. E. B. Du Bois published this remarkably prescient claim: “The problem of the 20th century is the problem of the color line—the relation of the darker to the lighter races in Asia and Africa, in America and in the islands of the sea.”...

Bounds for Assembly Line Balancing Heuristics
Operations Research, 1985We analyze the asymptotic worst-case performance ratio of polynomial time heuristics for the assembly line balancing problem. Assuming that P ≠ NP, we show that no polynomial heuristic has worst-case ratio less than 1.5. (This ratio is known to be not worse than 2 for any “reasonable” heuristic.) Tighter results are established for problems with only ...

The assembly line is first and foremost an image, one that dominated the industrial workplace for most of the 20thcentury. Since Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times, it has tended to symbolise contemporary work, particularly its fragmentation, repetition, loss of meaning and even the alienation of those who perform it.
