[ 1 ] - An Efficient Algorithm to Allocate Parts to Cells Minimizing Total Tardiness and Idle Times

In the design of a cellular manufacturing system (CMS), one of the important problems is the cell formation in the form of machine grouping and parts family. This paper investigates an allocation of parts to common and specific cells; in such a way that each common cell is able to process all required parts. Further, this paper presents a mathematical programming model comprising such constrain...
