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.

Coordination of inbound and outbound transportation schedules with the production schedule [PDF]

open access: yesComputers & Industrial Engineering, 2017
We study the coordination of production and shipment schedules for a manufacturer.Both inbound and outbound transportation schedules are considered.The objective is to minimize the sum of inventory holding and transportation costs.Properties of the solution space, lower bounds are developed; a heuristic is proposed for large-size instances.

An integrated production scheduling and delivery route planning with multi-purpose machines: A case study from a furniture manufacturing company

open access: yesInternational Journal of Production Economics, 2020
Recently, many modern industries have adopted joint scheduling of production and distribution decisions. Such coordination is necessary in make-to-order (MTO) businesses, where it is challenging to achieve timely delivery at minimum total cost and meet ...

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)
