Manufacturers can meet the due dates of orders by using overtime, in which case, additional cost incurs for the amount of overtime. Although many studies have been reported on scheduling, only a few papers are founds on production scheduling using overtime. We consider the problem of production scheduling using overtime on a single machine, in which each job has a given due-date, a constant processing time. We assume that the daily overtime does not exceed the daily regular operation time. The objectives is to minimize the total overtimes, while meeting all due dates. We first present a mathematical model, and then suggest a heuristic algorithm for the problem.

In this paper, production information management systems for global manufacturing enterprises is discussed. Three basic technologies to implement the system such as networking, database, and H/W interface technology are investigated, and a web based prototype systems integrating order and production information is developed with two server computers and a educational FMS. A MMI s/w is engaged in interfacing and real-time monitoring of FMS and an intranet is used for communication between the servers and clients.

This study was conducted to cultivate a large quantity of high-quality Bonsai through the development of bottom irrigation system. Bonsai placed on the FRP bed were grown very well by bottom irrigation system compared with direct watering and sprinkler system. It was concluded that bottom irrigation system was possible to reduce considerable manual labor and produce mass production of high-quality Bonsai.

In a complex production system, the efficient control of order entry-production schedule-shippment cycle is one of the most important managerial aspects. In this paper, an aggregate control mechanism has been developed. The result showed steps for improving and for optimizing the total systems efficiency. A simplified guidelines for a con ceptual data base has been suggested.

In the organization with a hierarchical network queue structure a production function is derived whose input factors are the numbers of servers at nodes and output is the number of served customers. Its useful properties are investigated. Using this production function, the contributions of servers to the number of served customers are studied. Also given an expected waiting time in the system for each customer, the optimal numbers of servers at nodes are obtained minimizing a cost function.

In an effort to become more competitive and cost efficient many companies have shifted from traditional job-shop production to production using group technology (GT) and cell manufacturing (CM). Cellular manufacturing is critical to implementing Just-in-Time (JIT) production which pointed out in the previous articles. and adopt the U-shaped cell which allows for entry at one end of the U and exist at the other. This paper looks at the availability of cellular manufacturing, by applying those concepts to the small and medium sized industry.

This paper studies a production-inventory model which unifies the inventory problem of raw materials and the finished product for a single product manufacturing system. The integrated production-inventory model is formulated wth a nonlinear mixed integer programming problem. An algorithm is developed by utilizing the finite explicit enumeration method. The algorithm guarantees to generate an optimal policy for minimizing the total annual variable cost. A mumerical example involving 15 raw materials is given to illustrate the recommended solution procedure.

A universal plasma-chemical module (PChM) for the industrial processing of different hydrocarbon raw material pyrolysis was designed and tested. Laboratory investigations for the plasma-chemical method of acetylene production from natural gas and different coals were made. Similar laboratory tests on the industrial production of acetylene as a raw material for organic syn-thesis were developed using the PChM. A comparison of the suggested plasma-chemical method with the traditional process of acetylene production were carried out. The outlook of the plasma-chemical method was shown.

The objective of this study is to develope an effectiveness measurement technique for U-shaped JIT production line by computer simulation. A small and medium sized automobile brake master cylinder manufacturing plant is studied for productivity improvement The production line is analysed and improved by applying Low Cost Automation, special jigs and fixtures, and facilities layout changes. An experimental simulation model is built using SIMAN(SIMulation ANalysis) simulation software for the production system analysis.

The efficient quality assurance system to prevent mixed assembly in introduced in this paper, It supports JIT(Just-In-Time) based Kanban and demand pull system. A new system is designed for the synchronized production and quality assurance using barcode and production kanban card, And the performance improvement method for the stable and fast response of the proposed system is suggested in this paper also. As the result of the proposed system, we improved production status visibility and quality traceability.
