چکیده
This paper presents a new simulation methodology for scheduling and coordinating decentralized job shops using multi-computer systems. The parallel working subsystems of an integrated production system are distributed across a network of computers. Utilizing the special structure of parallel processor architectures new coordination and scheduling rules for job shops are designed and evaluated. The simulation experiments show that the performance of conventional scheduling rules is significantly improved using the developed coordination approach. Furthermore the run-time of the distributed simulation model comes closer to realtime response of job shop simulations.
