Simulation analysis of lot streaming in job shops with transportation queue disciplines
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we study a multi-product lot streaming problem in a stochastic job shop with equal and discrete sublots. The problem involves splitting order quantities of different products into different number of equal sublots (NES) and analyzing the effects of sublot-related transportation queue disciplines (TRQD) for different performance measures. Our simulation results show that some combination of TRQD and NES alternatives are appropriate for some performance measures. We also propose a simple heuristic to determine the NES of each product type to further improve the values of performance measures. 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Hybrid algorithms for Job shop Scheduling Problem with Lot streaming and A Parallel Assembly Stage
In this paper, a Job shop scheduling problem with a parallel assembly stage and Lot Streaming (LS) is considered for the first time in both machining and assembly stages. Lot Streaming technique is a process of splitting jobs into smaller sub-jobs such that successive operations can be overlapped. Hence, to solve job shop scheduling problem with a parallel assembly stage and lot streaming, deci...
متن کاملLot streaming in open shops
We study lot streaming in shops in which the order the jobs are to be processed is immaterial. For a single job case, the properties of the optimal routing is determined. For the multi job case, two machine shops are analyzed. It is shown that lot streaming will improve makespan only if there is a job with large processing times. We show that there can be at most one such job and derive the opt...
متن کاملModelling and Scheduling Lot Streaming Flexible Flow Lines
Although lot streaming scheduling is an active research field, lot streaming flexible flow lines problems have received far less attention than classical flow shops. This paper deals with scheduling jobs in lot streaming flexible flow line problems. The paper mathematically formulates the problem by a mixed integer linear programming model. This model solves small instances to optimality. Moreo...
متن کاملCustomer Order Scheduling with Job-Based Processing and Lot Streaming In A Two-Machine Flow Shop
This paper considers a customer order scheduling (COS) problem in which each customer requests a variety of products processed in a two-machine flow shop. A sequence-independent attached setup for each machine is needed before processing each product lot. We assume that customer orders are satisfied by the job-based processing approach in which the same products from different customer orders f...
متن کاملCritical Path Method for Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem with Preemption
This paper addressed a Flexible Job shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP) with the objective of minimization of maximum completion time (Cmax) which job splitting or lot streaming is allowed. Lot streaming is an important technique that has been used widely to reduce completion time of a production system. Due to the complexity of the problem; exact optimization techniques such as branch and bound alg...
