Determination of Production Control System for Virtual Cellular Manufacturing System
Gazi Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi, 2018 Virtual cellular manufacturing system (VCMS) allows production system to accept a new type of product and copes with fluctuations in demand. Therefore, it offers opportunities for manufacturing firms by designing the cells without changing the layout of ...

Work in process level definition: a method based on computer simulation and electre tri
Production, 2014 This paper proposes a method for defining the levels of work in progress (WIP) in productive environments managed by constant work in process (CONWIP) policies. The proposed method combines the approaches of Computer Simulation and Electre TRI to support

On the meaning of ConWIP cards: an assessment by simulation [PDF]
Journal of Industrial and Production Engineering, 2019 The simplicity of Constant Work-In-Process (ConWIP) makes it one of the most widely adopted card-based production control solutions. Its simplicity, however, also limits the opportunities that are available to improve the concept. There are arguably only two major search directions: (i) to alter the meaning of cards away from controlling jobs; and (ii)

Card-based delivery date promising in pure flow shops with order release control [PDF]
, 2016 Card-based systems are simple, effective means of controlling production. Yet most systems concentrate on controlling the shop floor. They neglect other planning tasks, like estimating short, feasible due dates during customer enquiry management.
