This paper focuses on a simulation-based experimental study of the effects of routing flexibility, sequencing flexibility and part sequencing rules on the performance of a typical Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS). Three Routing Flexibility Levels (RFLs), five Sequencing Flexibility Levels (SFLs) and four Part Sequencing Rules (PSRs) are considered for detailed investigation. A discrete-event simulation...
This paper investigates the effect of various part launching decisions on the performance of a flexible manufacturing system (FMS). A typical FMS configuration has been developed for the purpose of experimentation. The parts to be processed in the system are known at the beginning of the scheduling period. Each operation of a part type can be performed on one or two (primary and secondary) or three...
This paper focuses on development and analysis of scheduling rules using fuzzy logic for scheduling a dynamic job shop. A discrete-event simulation model is developed for the purpose of experimentation. Six scheduling rules from the literature are incorporated in the simulation model. Three scheduling rules using fuzzy logic approach have been developed and analyzed. The max-min composition method...
