Multi-product flowshop scheduling with ordered processing times

Computers & Industrial Engineering, 1988
Abstract The problem of scheduling n jobs on m machines has received considerable research attention over the last 30 years or so. As a result, several optimization and heuristic algorithms are now available. This paper presents a single-pass heuristic scheduling procedure, to yield optimum solution, when the processing times of the jobs are ...

Concepts for Integrating Process Planning and Production Scheduling

1999
Integration between different phases of the production process is one of today’s key issues in manufacturing. This is so for process planning and shop floor control as well. Process planning creates work instructions to manufacture a part and shop floor control schedules and executes these instructions to get the final products on time and with ...

Neural Network Based Real-Time Production Scheduling For Industrial Processes

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1989
Abstract This paper presents an artificial neural network (ANN) based real-time production scheduling expert system existing in a hierarchical integrated computer control/production management system for some industrial processes with multi-production-stages and discreat event operations.

Batch Processing, Retort Scheduling, and Optimizing Plant Production

2015
Batch processing has been widely practiced but little analyzed in the context of canned food plants. Although high-speed processing with continuous rotary or hydrostatic retort systems can be found in very large canning factories, such systems are not economically feasible in the majority of small- to medium-sized canneries.

Integrated production-inventory models for imperfect production processes under inspection schedules☆

Computers & Industrial Engineering, 2003
This paper deals with inventory models that unify the inventory problems of raw materials and finished products for a single product imperfect manufacturing system. The product is manufactured in batches, and raw materials are jointly replenished from outside suppliers. The system is assumed to deteriorate during the preduction process.

Production Planning and Scheduling of Parallel Continuous Processes

2018
In Chap. 4, a novel mathematical approach to the simultaneous production planning and scheduling of continuous parallel units producing a large number of final products that can be classified into product families is developed. This problem appears in many stages of operation in the process industries, including packing in batch and continuous ...

The specifics of production scheduling in process industries

2002 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology, 2002. IEEE ICIT '02., 2003
Process manufacturing has some characteristics that makes it different from other types of industry. These specifics are reflected in the design of a process factory management system. This paper stresses some features of process manufacturing that have to be taken into account during the implementation of a production scheduling system.

Multilevel Scheduling of Multistage Production with Limited In-Process Inventory

Journal of the Operational Research Society, 1987
A multistage, multiproduct production scheduling with limited in-process buffers between the successive stages is considered. Each stage is made up of identical parallel machines. The problem objective is to determine an assignment of products to machines over a scheduling horizon, which minimizes the completion time of the production order, with the ...
