Scheduling optimization of flexible flow shop

2018 IEEE 4th Information Technology and Mechatronics Engineering Conference (ITOEC), 2018
According to the production characteristics of flexible job shop scheduling in practice, the initial solution is generated by random Numbers, Gantt chart is drawn, and the maximum process time is calculated. Then, a simplified algorithm is proposed with reference to Johnson's algorithm.

Group scheduling in flexible flow shops

International Journal of Production Economics, 2005
Abstract Flexible flow shops are becoming increasingly common in industry practice due to higher workloads imposed by jobs. As a result, one or more stages in a flexible flow shop will have two or more units of the same machine type. The group scheduling problem, comprised of two levels of scheduling, is investigated in this paper to minimize the ...

Buffer allocation optimization for flexible flow shop

2016 IEEE Information Technology, Networking, Electronic and Automation Control Conference, 2016
To order single type multistage flexible flow shop problems setting up the buffer capacity optimization, considering the coupling relationship between all levels of process node premise, based on the continuous time Markov stochastic process theory established the multi-level queuing network node status model of flow shop.

Flow Shop Scheduling with Partial Resource Flexibility

Management Science, 2004
Resource flexibility refers to the ability to dynamically reallocate units of resource from one stage of a production process to another in response to shifting bottlenecks. Recent research has demonstrated that substantial improvements in operational performance can be realized in both serial- and parallel-machine production environments through the ...

Online Scheduling of Flexible Flow Shop Manufacturing

2009 International Joint Conference on Computational Sciences and Optimization, 2009
The flexible flow shop refers to such a manufacturing environment in which jobs are to be processed through serial stages, with one or multiple machines available at each stage. It is usually a complex task when specific objective is demanded such as minimum cost, minimum time, etc.

Flexible Flow Shops

2012
We introduce four types of flexibility encountered in a flow shop: job routing through a hybrid shop, machine assignment, allocation of a scarce resource over the tasks to speed up processing, and the composition of daily production batches to satisfy requirements for a finite set of parts over a finite horizon.

Deadlock Avoidance in Flexible Flow Shops with Loops

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2001
This paper presents a deadlock-avoidance scheme that was developed during the MASCADA Project—Esprit LTR Project 22728. The deadlock problem occurs in a car body painting shop. From this application, an abstract problem was derived for which a deadlock-avoidance method was developed.
