Scheduling of non-repetitive lean manufacturing systems under uncertainty using intelligent agent simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Optimization Method using Combinatorial Auction for Production Scheduling with Batch Processing

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2010
Centralized control of production systems is difficult because systems have become increasingly expansive and complex. Autonomous distributed scheduling was proposed to address this problem.

Modeling and Optimization of Cable Production Scheduling by Incorporating an Ant Colony Algorithm

open access: yesMathematics
With the development of small batch and multi-batch service production mode, manual scheduling by hand has been difficult to adapt to the production of a large number of complex orders. This work proposed a cable production scheduling optimization method

The energy scheduling problem: Industrial case-study and constraint propagation techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper deals with production scheduling involving energy constraints, typically electrical energy. We start by an industrial case-study for which we propose a two-step integer/constraint programming method.

Reactive scheduling using a multi-agent model: the SCEP framework [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Multi-agent systems have been successfully applied to the scheduling problem for some time. However, their use often leads to poorly unsatisfactory disappointing results. A new multi-agent model, called supervisor, customers, environment, producers (SCEP)

Integration of Production Planning and Scheduling Based on RTN Representation under Uncertainties

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2019
Production planning and scheduling are important bases for production decisions. Concerning the traditional modeling of production planning and scheduling based on Resource-Task Network (RTN) representation, uncertain factors such as utilities are rarely
