An open queueing network for lead time analysis.
January 1, 2002... **********
Nico Vandaele (1)
Dominiek Callewier (2)
Liesje De Boeck (1)
In this paper we develop an open queueing network for a multi-product multi-machine job-shop in a make-to-order environment. The job-shop produces a...
Parallel-machine, multiple-product-type, continuous-time scheduling: decomposable cases.
January 1, 2002... **********
Konstantin Kogan (1)
Yow-Yuh Leu (2)
James R. Perkins (3)
This paper considers a manufacturing system where multiple-product-types are produced on a set of parallel machines. The production quantity for each...
Analysis of assembly systems for interdeparture time variability and throughput.
January 1, 2002... **********
Ihsan Sabuncuoglu (1)
Erdal Erel (2)
Erdal Erel (3)
This paper studies the effect of the number of component stations (parallelism), work transfer, processing time distributions, buffers and buffer allocation...
An optimal cart moving policy for a flexible manutacturing system.
January 1, 2002... **********
Zhao Xiaobo (1) (*)
Katsuhisa Ohno (2)
Koichi Nakade (2)
A flexible manufacturing system is composed of many stations such as a load/unload station, a set of workstations, and a common buffer, that are linked...
Analysis of two-machine lines with multiple failure modes.
January 1, 2002... **********
Tullio Tolio (1)
Andrer MattA (1)
Stanley B. Gershwin (2)
This paper presents an analytical method for evaluating the performance of production lines with a finite buffer and two unreliable machines. Unlike in...
Optimal control in homogeneous projects: analytically solvable deterministic cases.
January 1, 2002... **********
Konstantin Kogan (1)
Tzvi Raz (2)
Ramy Elitzur (3)
We develop a model for determining the economically optimal amount of control effort required to manage a homogeneous project (one consisting of a large number of...
Concurrent process planning and scheduling in distributed virtual manufacturing.
January 1, 2002... **********
Jerry J.Y.H. Fuh (*)
With the fast development of the world economy, distributed virtual manufacturing is becoming increasingly important since it can respond rapidly to market changes and make resource sharing more...
