One of the most important problems in production planning of flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is machine tool selection and operation allocation problem that directly influences the production costs and times .In this paper minimizing machining cost, set-up cost and material handling cost as a multi-objective problem in flexible manufacturing systems environment are considered. We present a ...

 The paper considers an integrated production, inspection, preventive maintenance, and inventory problem and determines the optimal inspection interval, inspection frequency, and production quantity yielding the maximum unit expected profit in an imperfect production process with inspection time and reworking. When the process in an out-of-control state produces a certain percentage of non-con...
