Plant objectives as revealed by shop floor activities
One problem management scientists face in adapting heuristics to actual applications on the factory floor is eliciting preferences from plant managers about the importance of different jobs. Even when the goal of the firm is apparently as straightforward as profit maximization, reputation and goodwill can play such critical roles in affecting the revenue flow, that exclusively focusing on a few...
متن کاملLearning by Objectives for Adaptive Shop-Floor Scheduling
Effective production scheduling requires consideration of the dynamics and unpredictability of the manufacturing environment. An automated learning scheme, utilizing genetic search, is proposed for adaptive control in typical decentralized factory-floor decisionmaking. A high-level knowledge representation for modeling production environments is developed, with facilities for genetic learning w...

متن کاملShop-Floor Scheduling of Semiconductor Wafer Fabs: Exploring the Influence of Technology, Market, and Performance Objectives
Shop-floor control has long been recognized as an important tool in improving manufacturing performance, an issue of great importance in the highly competitive semiconductor industry. Despite theoretical evidence of the benefits of certain kinds of scheduling policies, a wide disparity in shop-floor control practices exists in the industry. To better understand why such differences exist, we an...
متن کاملAs-j4 Real-time, Simulation-based Shop Floor Control
This paper presents a simulation control system developed by the Texas A&M Computer Aided Manufacturing Laboratory (TAMCAM). This control system is a research tool that TAMCAM uses to explore the advantages and disadvantages of on-line simulation for process control. The simulation can also be used in “look-ahead” mode to evaluate alternative control policies. The simulation is developed direct...
