Scheduling of flexible flow lines in an automobile assembly plant
Article Abstract:
The material flow process in the dashboard area and the mechanic area of an automated automobile assembly facility was characterized as part of a cost benefit analysis of several dynamic dispatching rules. Consequently, simulation experiments under varying production conditions were performed using WITNESS. The results demonstrated the superiority of the matching rule over the push rule with respect to work-in-process minimization.

Developing scheduling systems for Daewoo Shipbuilding: DAS project
Article Abstract:
The Daewoo Shipbuilding Scheduling (DAS) system for integrated production planning and scheduling was jointly developed by the shipbuilder and Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology. Consisting of several subsystems, it is based on a combination of operations research and artificial intelligence methods such as hierarchical architecture, constrained directed graph search and neural network estimation.
