A priori reformulations for joint rolling-horizon scheduling of materials processing and lot-sizing problem
(2013-06-10)
In many production processes, a key material is prepared and then transformed into different final products. The lot sizing decisions concern not only the production of final products, but also that of material preparation ...
Lot sizing and furnace scheduling in small foundries
(2008-03-01)
A lot sizing and scheduling problem prevalent in small market-driven foundries is studied. There are two related decision levels: (1) the furnace scheduling of metal alloy production, and (2) moulding machine planning which ...
Aerospace Manufacturing Industry: A Simulation-Based Decision Support Framework for the Scheduling of Complex Hoist Lines
(Lizandra Garcia, Lupi Vergara, 2017-09)
The hoist scheduling problem is a critical issue in the design and control of Automated Manufacturing Systems. To deal with the major complexities appearing in such problem, this work introduces an advanced simulation model ...
Integrated planning and scheduling with due dates in corrugated board boxes industry
(American Chemical Society, 2013-01)
An integrated approach that solves the cutting stock problem and scheduling is considered in this article. The main challenging characteristics of this problem are given by its combinatorial nature, as well as the ...
A survey of case studies in production scheduling: Analysis and perspectives
(2018-03-01)
The problems of production scheduling and sequencing refer to decision making regarding the designation of jobs to available resources and their subsequent order to optimize pre-defined performance measures. From the early ...
Determination of storage tanks location for optimal short-term scheduling in multipurpose/multiproduct batch-continuous plants under uncertainties
(Springer, 2012-09)
A multipurpose/multiproduct plant has to deal with many combinations of tasks sequences and operation rates that lead to accumulation problems. These problems can be handled using storage tanks, but usually their location ...
Modelling distributed computing workloads to support the study of scheduling decisions
(Inderscience PublishersOlney, 2015)
Process scheduling is one of the most important issues in distributed computing. However, this problem still requires further formalisation to understand the consequences of scheduler decisions. To overcome this drawback, ...
Time needed to schedule dermatological consultations in Brazil
(Soc Brasileira Dermatologia, 2013-07-01)
BACKGROUND: It is not clear what the population's demand for dermatologists is, nor how many professionals are needed in order to provide adequate care in this area of expertise. Knowledge of the flow of patients at ...
Online sporadic task scheduling in hard real-time systems
(C R L Publishing LtdLeicesterInglaterra, 1998)
MIP-based decomposition strategies for large-scale scheduling problems in multiproduct multistage batch plants: A benchmark scheduling problem of the pharmaceutical industry
(Elsevier Science, 2010-12)
An efficient systematic iterative solution strategy for solving real-world scheduling problems in multiproduct multistage batch plants is presented. Since the proposed method has its core a mathematical model, two alternative ...
