The problem of scheduling n independent jobs on serial stages with identical parallel machines at each stage is considered. Each job lot is allocated evenly to all machines at each stage for processing and moved in transfer batches between states., This scheduling strategy is called an identical production pattern. The objective is to find a permutation schedule that minimizes makespan. A branch and bound algorithm is suggested to find an optimal permutation schedule for a transformed problem A number examples is presented to illustrate the branch and bound algorithm, Computational results for 640 problems generated randomly show that within a resonable time the suggested algorithm can be used for transfer batch scheduling in a flexible flowshop.

According to glowing computing capacity, software in remote sensing has supported diverse processing interfaces from batch interface to high-end user interactive interface. In this paper, component based visual modeler is developed to process batch jobs for high-end users as well as novices. Visual modeler arranges several node groups which are categorized according to their purposes. These nodes carry out elemental unit processes and can be grouped to model. The model represents user specified job which is composed diverse nodes. User can organize models by connecting diverse nodes according to data flow model specification which rules node's connectivity and direction, etc. Furthermore, user defined models can be together to organize much more complex and large model.

With the advance of VLSI and network technologies, it has now become a common practice to deploy a various forms of distributed computing environments. A study shows that a lot of network-aware computers are in an idle state for considerable amount of time depending on the types of users and time frames of the day. If we can take the full advantage of those idle computers, we can obtain the enormous combined processing power without further costly investment. In this paper, we present a distributed batch-processing system, called the Java Distributed Batch-processing System (JDBS), which allows us to execute CPU-intensive, independent jobs across a pool of idle workstations on top of extant distributed computing environments. Since JDBS is implemented using a Java programming language, it not only extends the scope of machine types that can be joined to the pool, but makes it a lot easier to build an entire system. Besides, JDBS is scalable and fault-tolerant due to its multi-cluster organization and intelligent strategies. A graphical user interface is also provided to facilitate the registration and unregistration, job submission, and job monitoring.

Condor is a distributed batch system for sharing the workload among the computers connected by a network. Condor distributed system was developed on the basis that every machine in a Condor pool is always connected by a network to run a Condor Job. Due to advances in wireless communication and mobile computing technology, conventional distributed computer systems can now include “mobile” clients as well as “fixed” clients. Moreover, mobile users want to lower their power consumption by off-loading potentially power and resource consuming jobs. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of mobile interface for mobile clients in Condor distributed batch system. The main purpose of this work is to enable users on mobile computers to interact with Condor environment any time anywhere regardless of their connection to a Condor pool. The mobile Condor distributed system also aims to provide mobile users the same Condor services without making any significant changes to the existing Condor system.

MapReduce is a widely used programming model for analyzing and processing Big data. Aggregate queries are one of the most common types of queries used for analyzing Big data. In this paper, we propose an efficient method for processing an aggregate query stream, where many concurrent users continuously issue different aggregate queries on the same data. Instead of processing each aggregate query separately, the proposed method processes multiple aggregate queries together in a batch by a single, optimized MapReduce job. As a result, the number of queries processed per unit time increases significantly. Through various experiments, we show that the proposed method improves the performance significantly compared to a naive method.

This paper has proposed the modelling by simulation in order to evaluate the performance of process through discrete event simulation using SIMAN language in flexible manufacturing systems. The production system is assumed to be a job shop type of system under the batch production of discrete products. In this paper, the input data is the workstation(process) time, the number of workstation(process), a probability distribution, the number of simulation runs. Also, transient period is considered. In the case study, this paper deals with three products in real flexible manufacturing systems. Finally, a number of simulation runs were executed under different experimental conditions to obtain preliminary statistics on the following performance measures: operating rate of facility and average system operating rate, transient period, central processing unit, average system throughput, and average waiting time in queues.

The properties of ready mixed concrete are affected largely by quality of cement, grading and adhesive surface area water content of aggregate. The amount of variation must be found as soon as possible to minimize the variation of concrete properties. In this paper, a computer program is presented for fast and accurate calculation and modification of mix proportion according to property variation of concrete materials. The program calculates specified mix proportion, job mix proportion and batch weight of ready mixed concrete.

A flexible flow line(FFL) consists of several groups of identical machines. All work-orders flow along the same path through successive machine groups. Thus, we emphasized the balancing of workloads between machine groups in order to maximize total productivity. On the other hand, many different types of work-orders, in varying batch or lot sizes, are produced simultaneously. The mix of work-orders, their lot sizes, and the sequence in which they are produced affect the amount of workload. However, the work-orders and their lot sizes are prefixed and cannot be changed. Because of these reasons, we have developed an optimal route selection model using heuristic search and Min-Max algorithm for balancing the workload between machine groups in the FFL.
