Setting Inventory Levels of CONWIP Flow Lines via Linear Programming [PDF]
Business Research, 2011 AbstractThis paper treats the problem of setting the inventory level and optimizing the buffer allocation of closed-loop flow lines operating under the constant-work-in-process (CONWIP) protocol. We solve a very large but simple linear program that models an entire simulation run of a closed-loop flow line in discrete time to determine a production ...
