Family based dispatching in manufacturing networks

Optimal Dispatching of Active Distribution Networks Based on Load Equilibrium

This paper focuses on the optimal intraday scheduling of a distribution system that includes renewable energy (RE) generation, energy storage systems (ESSs), and thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs). This system also provides time-of-use pricing to customers. Unlike previous studies, this study attempts to examine how to optimize the allocation of electric energy and to improve the equilibr...

Analysis of dynamic dispatching rules for a flexible manufacturing system

This paper presents a simulation model of a flexible manufacturing system (FMS) which subjects to minimization three performance criteria simultaneously such as mean flow time, mean tardiness, and mean earliness. The dispatching rule will be changed at a frequency that is varied by the number of outputs produced by the system. Therefore, the dynamic nature is event-triggered rather than changin...

Multiple-Dispatching Based on Automata

We present a novel technique for multiple-dispatching. In object-oriented programming languages, multiple-dispatching provides increased expressive power over single-dispatching by guiding method lookup using the values of all arguments instead of the receiver only. However, the efficient implementation for multiple-dispatching is still critical with regard to its success as a standard. There h...

Content-Based Dispatching in a Mobile Environment

Holonic supply chain: A study from family-based manufacturing perspective

In the contemporary business environment, to adhere to the need of the customers, caused the shift from mass production to mass-customization. This necessitates the supply chain (SC) to be effective flexible. The purpose of this paper is to seek flexibility through adoption of family-based dispatching rules under the influence of inventory system implemented at downstream echelons of an industr...
