Lot streaming with detached setups in three-machine flow shops

Article Abstract:

The structural features of schedules that minimize the makespan of a single job with detached setup times in a multiple-machine job shop by splitting the job into different sublots are studied. Since optimal lot streaming schedules are more complex than solutions to problems requiring no setup times, an algorithm that converges to an optimal solution in O(log s) time was developed for the case of a three-machine flow shop.
