Optimization Versus Robustness in Simulation: A Practical Methodology, With a Production-Management Case-Study [PDF]
Whereas Operations Research has always paid much attention to optimization, practitioners judge the robustness of the 'optimum' solution to be of greater importance.Therefore this paper proposes a practical methodology that is a stagewise combination of ...

Materials flow control in hybrid make-to-stock/make-to-order manufacturing [PDF]
Today’s company competiveness is favoured by product customisation and fast delivery. A strategy to meet this challenge is to manufacture standard items to stock for product customisation. This configures a hybrid environment of make-to-stock and make-to-

Short-Term Robustness of Production Management Systems: New Methodology [PDF]
This paper investigates the short-term robustness of production planning and control systems. This robustness is defined here as the systems ability to maintain short-term service probabilities (i.e., the probability that the fill rate remains within a ...

Setting Real Time WIP Levels in Production Lines [PDF]
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]
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 ...
