A set of technical, administrative and management activities are done in the life cycle of equipment, to be located in good condition and have proper and expected functioning. This is refers to be, maintenance management system (MMS). The framework and models of assessment in order to enhance effectiveness of a MMS could be proposed in two categories: qualitative and quantitative. In this resea...

We consider a single-machine scheduling problem with upper bounded actual processing time and upper bounded maintenance time under deteriorating effect.The actual processing time of a job is a position-dependent power function. If the actual processing time of a job exceeds the upper bound, tardiness penalty of the job should be paid. And if the maintenance time exceeds the corresponding upper ...

Widely used in decision support systems, OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) technology facilitates interactive analysis of multi-dimensional data of varied granularities. In this paper, we demonstrate an interesting application of OLAP in solving multicriteria maintenance scheduling problems. Maintenance scheduling has many important applications, such as maintenance of inverted indexes for se...

In the literature, preventive maintenance (PM) tasks are treated as one category of work such that they were interchangeable in scheduling. It is not practical in the real production system as different categories of maintenance tasks should be independent. Thus, this work modeled a new Production-Maintenance Scheduling (PMS) problem that considered different categories of maintenance with diff...

In a real manufacturing system, a machine may need multiple maintenance activities to improve its production efficiency due to the effects of aging or deteriorating. This paper considers scheduling with aging or deteriorating effects and deteriorating maintenance activities simultaneously on a single machine. We assume that the machine may be subject to several maintenance activities during the...
