Application of Simulation Model for Distributed Scheduling Problems in FMS
نویسنده
چکیده
The main objective of this paper is to study the Distributed Scheduling (DS) problems in Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) environment using simulation model. This FMS is assumed to be single factory and multi factory which are analyzed by production capacity, throughput, utilization and work-in-process (WIP) by considering scheduling rules. The rules which are includes Largest processing time (LPT), shortest processing time (SPT), first come first serve (FCFS) and last come first serve (LCFS). Finally these rules are compared with each other and concluded that which rule is better than others with respect to performances in the view of single factory and multi factory. Further the author has suggested future research works too.

A Scheduling Model of Flexible Manufacturing System to Reduce Waste and Earliness/Tardiness Penalties
Nowadays, flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is introduced as a response to the competitive environment. Scheduling of FMS is more complex and more difficult than the other scheduling production systems. One of the main factors in scheduling of FMS is variable time of taking orders from customers, which leads to a sudden change in the manufacturing process. Also, some problems are created in p...
متن کاملReal-time Scheduling of a Flexible Manufacturing System using a Two-phase Machine Learning Algorithm
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...
متن کاملRole of batch size in scheduling optimization of flexible manufacturing system using genetic algorithm
Flexible manufacturing system (FMS) readily addresses the dynamic needs of the customers in terms of variety and quality. At present, there is a need to produce a wide range of quality products in limited time span. On-time delivery of customers’ orders is critical in make-to-order (MTO) manufacturing systems. The completion time of the orders depends on several factors including arrival rate, ...
متن کاملMulti-objective and Scalable Heuristic Algorithm for Workflow Task Scheduling in Utility Grids
To use services transparently in a distributed environment, the Utility Grids develop a cyber-infrastructure. The parameters of the Quality of Service such as the allocation-cost and makespan have to be dealt with in order to schedule workflow application tasks in the Utility Grids. Optimization of both target parameters above is a challenge in a distributed environment and may conflict one an...
متن کاملSolving distributed FMS scheduling problems subject to maintenance: Genetic algorithms approach
In general, distributed scheduling problem focuses on simultaneously solving two issues: (i) allocation of jobs to suitable factories and (ii) determination of the corresponding production scheduling in each factory. The objective of this approach is to maximize the system efficiency by finding an optimal planning for a better collaboration among various processes. This makes distributed schedu...
