Setting Real Time WIP Levels in Production Lines [PDF]
, 2006 A new algorithm is developed for setting WIP level in production lines. It is a pull policy that determines when to authorize a job to be processed. Dynamic information in the system such as machine failures and repairs, and demand variations are taken

COBACABANA (control of balance by card based navigation):an alternative to kanban in the pure flow shop? [PDF]
, 2015 Kanban systems are widely applied in practice as they represent a simple yet effective means of controlling production. But they suffer from a lack of load balancing capabilities, which hinders their application even to pure flow shops if there is ...

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 ...
