Three-stage flow-shop scheduling with assembly operations to minimize weighted sum of product completion times

Article Abstract:

A modified flow-shop scheduling problem for a production system, which is characterized by parts machining followed by their subsequent assembly (joining) is studied. Johnson's algorithm is used as part of the solution procedure to develop an efficient solution procedure with branch and bound method. The proposed solution is shown to be effective in obtaining optimal or e-optimal solutions for larger-scaled problems.

Scheduling of continuous and discontinuous material flows with intermediate storage restrictions

Article Abstract:

Scheduling of continuous, discontinuous, and semi-continuous production process of process industries, like chemical, metal, pharmaceutical, or food industries, with limited resources and storage facilities is examined. Solution for production scheduling problem is analyzed in a branch-and-bound algorithm.
