A Real-time Planning and Scheduling Model in RFID-enabled Manufacturing
نویسندگان
چکیده
As the increasing use of RFID technology in manufacturing companies, the real-time production data collection is inadequate. Companies especially small and medium-sized manufacturing entities, contemplate to implement advanced planning and scheduling (APS) so as to achieve real-time production. This paper, motivated by a reallife case, proposes a real-time planning and scheduling model to realize meaningful APS in the RFID-enabled manufacturing environment. Experiments results show its outperformance over other three rule-based approaches used by the case company. Based on this model, a real-time Kanban is adopted for supporting the coordination between planners and schedulers in the real-world ambience.

The static and analytic scheduling approach is very difficult to follow and is not always applicable in real-time. Most of the scheduling algorithms are designed to be established in offline environment. However, we are challenged with three characteristics in real cases: First, problem data of jobs are not known in advance. Second, most of the shop’s parameters tend to be stochastic. Third, th...

Radio frequency identification (RFID) has been widely used in supporting the logistics management on manufacturing shopfloors where production resources attached with RFID facilities are converted into smart manufacturing objects (SMOs) which are able to sense, interact, and reason to create a ubiquitous environment. Within such environment, enormous data could be collected and used for support...
