Lot Streaming of Hybrid Flowshops with Variable Lot Sizes and Eligible Machines
International Journal of Industrial and Systems Engineering, 2021Hybrid flowshops are a special type of manufacturing systems, in which a stage may contain identical or unrelated parallel machines. This paper deals with a more practical approach for lot streaming hybrid flowshop in which the sublot sizes of jobs can vary from one stage to the next according to machines’ speed. Two models of mixed-integer nonlinear

Basic Techniques for Lot Streaming
Operations Research, 1993We present an overview of basic models and solution algorithms for the lot streaming problem. We include models with continuous and discrete sublot sizes, models with and without intermittent idling of machines, and models with consistent and variable sublots. We also introduce a model with limited transporter capacity.

International Journal of Production Research, 2013
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 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

Lot streaming in a two-stage assembly system
Annual Reviews in Control, 2020Abstract In this paper, we address a scheduling problem belonging to a two-stage assembly system that can also be viewed as a mass customization system. The first stage of this system consists of a set of subassembly machines, each of which produces a component type.

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.

A comparative study of lot streaming procedures
Omega, 1993Abstract We describe computational experiments with several algorithms for solving the lot streaming problem. Each of the algorithms optimizes the makespan under some set of constraints. For example, we can constrain the solution to have no idling, consistent sublots, equal sublots or equal sublots and no idling.
