Operations Scheduling for Multi-item, Small-sized Production

다종소량생산(多種少量生産)의 일정계획(日程計劃)

Group scheduling problem in a multi-stage manufacturing system is reviewed and two heuristic procedures for minimizing the makespan are developed by employing the methods of flow shop sequencing heuristics with a slight modification. The comparisons among the five heuristics, three previously reported heuristics and two heuristics suggested by this study, are made on different problem sizes. The computational results indicate that NEH-GS method gives better group schedules than the other heuristics tested, but its computation time increases rapidly as the problem size increases. On the other hand, CDS-GS method provides relatively good group schedules with less computation time compared with NEH-GS method.
