Cyclic Scheduling

چکیده
In this paper we consider the problem of cyclic schedules such as arise in manufacturing. We introduce a new formulation of this problem that is a very simple modi cation of a standard job shop scheduling formulation, and which enables us to use existing constraint reasoning techniques to generate cyclic schedules. We present evidence for the e ectiveness of this formulation, and describe extensions for handling multiple-capacity resources and for recovering from breaks in cyclic schedules.

Generalized Cyclic Open Shop Scheduling and a Hybrid Algorithm
In this paper, we first introduce a generalized version of open shop scheduling (OSS), called generalized cyclic open shop scheduling (GCOSS) and then develop a hybrid method of metaheuristic to solve this problem. Open shop scheduling is concerned with processing n jobs on m machines, where each job has exactly m operations and operation i of each job has to be processed on machine i . However...
متن کاملA New Solution for the Cyclic Multiple-Part Type Three-Machine Robotic Cell Problem based on the Particle Swarm Meta-heuristic
In this paper, we develop a new mathematical model for a cyclic multiple-part type threemachine robotic cell problem. In this robotic cell a robot is used for material handling. The objective is finding a part sequence to minimize the cycle time (i.e.; maximize the throughput) with assumption of known robot movement. The developed model is based on Petri nets and provides a new method to calcul...
متن کاملToward Cyclic Scheduling of Concurrent Multimodal Processes
The problem of cyclic scheduling of multimodal cyclic processes (MCPs) is considered. The issue follows the production engineering and supply chains environment, where the imposition of the integer domain results (due to inherent process features such as discrete slot sizes, etc.) in the Diophantine character of a scheduling problem. Consequently, some classes of MCPs scheduling problems can be...
متن کاملCyclic Scheduling in Robotic Cells: An Extension of Basic Models in Machine Scheduling Theory
There is a growing interest on cyclic scheduling problems both in the scheduling literature and among practitioners in the industrial world. There are numerous examples of applications of cyclic scheduling problems in different industries (see, e.g., Hall (1999), Pinedo (2001)), automatic control (Romanovskii (1967), Cohen et al. (1985)), multi-processor computations (Hanen and Munier (1995), K...
متن کاملCoordination of a Cyclic Three-stage Supply Chain for Fast Moving Consumer Goods
We focus on a three-stage supply chain problem for fast moving consumer goods including a supplier, a manufacturer and customers. There are different orders over identical cycles, to be processed in production site. The problem is to find a joint cyclic schedule of raw material procurement and job scheduling minimized the total cost comprised of raw material ordering cost and holding cost, prod...
