Toward Robust Manufacturing Scheduling: Stochastic Job-Shop Scheduling [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Manufacturing plays a significant role in economic development, production, exports, and job creation, which ultimately contribute to improving the quality of life. The presence of manufacturing defects is, however, inevitable leading to products being discarded, i.e. scrapped. In some cases, defective products can be repaired through rework. Scrap and

Professionalism skills education in medical physics residency: Current state and perceived importance

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to collect data on current practices for teaching and assessing professionalism in CAMPEP‐accredited residency programs. Methods A survey of 21 questions was sent to 160 program directors (PDs) of CAMPEP‐accredited residency programs.

Flexible job-shop scheduling problem with parallel batch machines based on an enhanced multi-population genetic algorithm

open access: yesComplex & Intelligent Systems
The flexible job-shop scheduling problem (FJSP) with parallel batch processing machine (PBM) is one of those long-standing issues that needs cutting-edge approaches. It is a recent extension of standard flexible job shop scheduling problems.

REAL-TIME SCHEDULING IN A SENSORISED FACTORY USING CLOUD-BASED SIMULATION WITH MOBILE DEVICE ACCESS

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Industrial Engineering, 2017
Scheduling is a challenge that persists in the operational phase of the manufacturing life-cycle. The challenge can be attributed to the complex, dynamic, and stochastic nature of a manufacturing system.

Approximation algorithms for the three-machine proportionate mixed shop scheduling [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
A mixed shop is a manufacturing infrastructure designed to process a mixture of a set of flow-shop jobs and a set of open-shop jobs. Mixed shops are in general much more complex to schedule than flow-shops and open-shops, and have been studied since the 1980's. We consider the three machine proportionate mixed shop problem denoted as $M3 \mid prpt \mid

Selected heuristic algorithms for solving job shop and flow shop scheduling problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Importance of job shop and flow shop scheduling has increased to a high extent. Nowadays, each and every industry focuses largely on how to schedule their machine working, since it is an important factor which decides the net productivity.

Using deep learning generated CBCT contours for online dose assessment of prostate SABR treatments

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Prostate Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR) is an ultra‐hypofractionated treatment where small setup errors can lead to higher doses to organs at risk (OARs). Although bowel and bladder preparation protocols reduce inter‐fraction variability, inconsistent patient adherence still results in OAR variability.

Improved Scheduling for the Three-Machine Proportionate Open Shop and Mixed Shop Minimum Makespan Problems

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Open shop scheduling problems have many practical applications, in which the jobs can be in any order with the only restriction that their durations do not overlap with each other. In some cases, the order of a subset of jobs dictates the flow shop model

Shop scheduling problems with pliable jobs [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Scheduling, 2019
In this paper, we study a new type of flow shop and open shop models, which handle so-called “pliable” jobs: their total processing times are given, but individual processing times of operations which make up these jobs are flexible and need to be determined.
