Managing Disruptions in a Flow-Shop Manufacturing System

There is a manufacturing system where several parts are processed through machining workstations and later assembled to form final products. In the event of disruptions such as machine failure, original flow-shop schedule needs be revised and/or rescheduled. scenario, rescheduling methods based on right-shift affected operations work very well. Here in this study, deviation make-span from used performance measure. We have proposed three methods. multiple factors that influence methodology. One them schedule, influencing it optimality initial solution, failure duration, make-span, method, size, instant failure. The problem size depend for which scheduling performed, but method depends decision methodology selected. Computations performed using full factorial experimentation. also observed preferred majority situations. contrast, operation equally suitable when solution created modified bottleneck minimum idleness.
