An analysis of FMS scheduling problem: a beam search based algorithm and comparison of scheduling schemes
(Bilkent University, 1994)FMS scheduling procedures in the literature can be classified into on-line and off-line schemes according to the number of scheduling decisions made at a point in time. Online scheduling attempts to schedule operations ... -
Analysis of scheduling problems in dynamic and stochastic FMS environment : comparison of rescheduling polices
(Bilkent University, 2001)In this thesis, we study the reactive scheduling problems in a dynamic and stochastic flexible manufacturing environment. Specifically, we test different scheduling policies (how-to-schedule and when-to-schedule policies) ... -
Analytical loading models and control strategies in flexible manufacturing systems: a comparative study
(Bilkent University, 1990)There are three problem areas in designing and implementing a manufacturing line : the part family selection and grouping, system configuration and toolings and the operational control of manufacturing. The manufacturing ... -
Joint lot sizing and tool management in a single CNC environment
(Bilkent University, 1996)111 most of the studies on tool management, lot sizes are taken as pi'edetermined input while deciding on tool allocations and machining |)arameters. In this study, we considered the integration of lot sizing and tool ... -
Multiple part-type scheduling in flexible robotic cells
(Elsevier, 2012-02)This paper considers the scheduling problem arising in two-machine manufacturing cells which repeatedly produce a set of multiple part-types, and where transportation of the parts between the machines is performed by a ... -
Unidirectional loop newtork layout problem in flexible manufactaring systems
(Bilkent University, 1999)Unidirectional Loop Networks are the most common architecture in FMSs. This is partly due to lower implementation costs of unidirectional loop networks. But mainly it is the higher flexibility unidirectional loop ...
