Lot streaming with supplier–manufacturer coordination
Naval Research Logistics (NRL), 2004AbstractLot splitting refers to breaking a production lot into smaller sublots during production. Coordinating lot splitting decisions across multiple stages of a production process is a challenging task. Traditional lot splitting and lot streaming models implicitly assume that the entire system is operated and owned by the same firm, or there exists a

In this paper we present a review of the literature on lot streaming. Lot streaming is a technique that accelerates the flow of a product through a production system by splitting its production lot into sublots and then processing the sublots simultaneously over the machines, thereby reducing the work-in-process and cycle time.

Lot streaming in multistage production systems
International Journal of Production Economics, 2000Abstract Lot streaming is a procedure in which a production lot is split into smaller sub-lots and moved to the next processing stage so that operations at successive stages of a multistage manufacturing system can be overlapped in time. Lot streaming reduces the manufacturing lead time and thereby provides an opportunity to lower the costs of ...

The problem of processing of job lot of n identical items in a general shop where each item in the lot requires processing in m distinct processors, in any order, is considered. The m processors are not necessarily available at the same time to process the job lot.

A comprehensive review of lot streaming
International Journal of Production Research, 2005Lot streaming combined lot splitting with operations overlapping is one of the effective techniques used to implement the time-based strategy in today's era of global competition. Therefore, this technique has been studied extensively over the past few decades.

A single-lot, unified cost-based flow shop lot-streaming problem
International Journal of Production Economics, 2008Abstract Lot streaming is the process of splitting a production lot into sublots, and then, scheduling the sublots in an overlapping fashion on the machines. In this paper, we present a polynomial-time procedure for determining the number of sublots of a single-lot, multiple-machine flow shop lot-streaming problem in order to minimize a unified cost ...

Multiple-Lot Lot Streaming in a Two-stage Assembly System
2013In this chapter, we address a lot streaming problem for a two-stage assembly system involving multiple lots with the objective of minimizing the makespan. Each lot consists of items of a unique product type. We designate this problem as a multiple-lot, two-stage assembly, lot streaming problem (ML-TSALSP) which combines two key decisions: lot splitting

Solution Procedures for the Lot‐Streaming Problem
Decision Sciences, 1990ABSTRACTLot streaming is the process of splitting a job into sublots so its operations can be overlapped and its progress accelerated. We present a computationally efficient procedure for solving the m‐machine, two‐sublot problem, and we discuss the bottleneck insights that emerge from the analysis.
