Batch Scheduling In A Two-Stage Flexible Flow Shop Problem [PDF]
Foundations of Computing and Decision Sciences, 2014 We study a special two-stage flexible flowshop, which consists of several parallel identical machines in the first stage and a single machine in the second stage.

Scheduling of non-repetitive lean manufacturing systems under uncertainty using intelligent agent simulation [PDF]
, 2008 World-class manufacturing paradigms emerge from specific types of manufacturing systems with which they remain associated until they are obsolete. Since its introduction the lean paradigm is almost exclusively implemented in repetitive manufacturing ...

Three Algorithms for Flexible Flow-shop Scheduling [PDF]
American Journal of Applied Sciences, 2007 Scheduling is an important process widely used in manufacturing, production, management, computer science, and so on. Appropriate scheduling can reduce material handling costs and time. Finding good schedules for given sets of jobs can thus help factory supervisors effectively control job flows and provide solutions for job sequencing.

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Distributed Flow Shop Scheduling with Flexible Maintenance
Machines, 2022 A common situation arising in flow shops is that the job processing order must be the same on each machine; this is referred to as a permutation flow shop scheduling problem (PFSSP).

No-Wait Flexible Flow Shop Scheduling with Due Windows [PDF]
Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 2015 To improve capacity and reduce processing time, the flow shop with multiprocessors (FSMP) system is commonly used in glass, steel, and semiconductor production. No-wait FSMP is a modern production system that responds to periods when zero work is required in process production. The production process must be continuous and uninterrupted.

A linear programming-based method for job shop scheduling [PDF]
, 2012 We present a decomposition heuristic for a large class of job shop scheduling problems. This heuristic utilizes information from the linear programming formulation of the associated optimal timing problem to solve subproblems, can be used for any ...

A Simultaneous Worker Assignment and Scheduling Problem to Minimize Makespan in Flexible Flow Shop via Metaheuristic Approaches [PDF]
International Journal of Industrial Engineering and Production Research, 2019 In many real scheduling situations, it is necessary to deal with the worker assignment and job scheduling together. However, in traditional scheduling problems, only the machine is assumed to be a constraint and there isn’t any constraint about workers ...
