A Three-dimensional Matching Model for Perishable Production Scheduling

In the production of perishable goods particular stress is often given to performance indi cators generally less critical in such manufacturing settings as metal cutting or mechan ical electronic assembly For instance in food or biochemical productions a prominent interest of the producer is to reduce the time from distribution to the so called best before end A scheduling problem with a goal o...

A new approach in graph- based integrated production and distribution scheduling for perishable products

This study is concerned with how the quality of perishable products can be improved by shortening the time interval between production and distribution. As special types of food such as dairy products decay fast, the integration of production and distribution scheduling (IPDS) is investigated. An integrated scheduling of both processes improves the performance and costs because the separated sc...

A multi-objective mathematical model for production-distribution scheduling problem

With increasing competition in the business world and the emergence and development of new technologies, many companies have turned to integrated production and distribution for timely production and delivery at the lowest cost of production and distribution and with the least delay in delivery. By increasing human population and the increase in greenhouse gas emissions and industrial waste, in...

Integrated production and distribution scheduling for perishable products

Multi-Objective Scheduling Problem in a Three-Stage Production System

A three stage production system is considered in this paper. There are two stages to fabricate and ready the parts and an assembly stage to assembly the parts and complete the products in this system. Suppose that a number of products of different kinds are ordered. Each product is assembled with a set of several parts. At first the parts are produced in the first stage with parallel machines a...
