A Dynamic Dispatching Method to Improve Performance of Flow shop

Flow shop의 효율제고를 위한 동적 작업배정방안

The efficiency of production system is mainly considered in the viewpoints of reducing the average flow time of products and increasing the throughput rate. The performance in these viewpoints is very depending on job dispatching of each machine in real time operation, in the case jobs are released dynamically. In this research, a heuristic dynamic dispatching method is suggested for a flow shop case where new jobs with random process times are released by an interarrival time distribution and the number of waiting jobs between each pair of machines are limited. The proposed method has been compared with some priority rule-based dispatching methods by simulation and found to be superior to them.
