Chaos Theory in Production Scheduling

نویسنده

  • G. Chryssolouris
چکیده

In this paper the concept of chaos in manufacturing systems is briefly introduced and tools used in the characterization of a chaotic system are discussed. The scheduling of a simple manufacturing system, with the help of commonly used assignment rules, has been simulated first. The results have been studied with the help of phase portraits. Some conclusions have been drawn and a new method for scheduling is proposed. The method is tested against conventional rules and the results are evaluated and discussed.

Using Theory of Constraints in Production Management and Scheduling (A Case Study)

In manufacturing institutes the only access way to maximum profit is identifying the production mix of the products based on the limitations such as policies and politics, demand and production processes. This study identifies the constraints of a tile-manufacturing company including constraints in its production and demand line using LINGO software version 15, and identifying production bottle...

Forecasting Petroleum Production Using Chaos Time Series Analysis and Fuzzy Clustering

Forecasting of petroleum production time series is a key task underlying scheduling of oil refinery production. In turn, forecasting requires analysing whether time series exhibits chaotic behavior. In this paper we consider chaos analysis based forecasting of time series of gasoline and diesel production. Chaos analysis is based on Lyapunov exponents and includes determination of optimal value...

The Assessment of Applying Chaos Theory for Daily Traffic Estimation

Road traffic volumes in intercity roads are generally estimated by probability functions, statistical techniques or meta-heuristic approaches such as artificial neural networks. As the road traffic volumes depend on input variables and mainly road geometrical design, weather conditions, day or night time, weekend or national holidays and so on, these are also estimated by pattern recognition te...

Application of Chaos Theory in Hazardous Material Transportation

Risk factors are generally defined and assigned to road networks, as constant measures in hazmat routing problems. In fact, they may be dynamic variables depending on traffic volume, weather and road condition, and drivers' behavior. In this research work, risk factors are defined as dynamic variables using the concept of chaos theory. The largest Lyapunov exponent is utilized to determine the ...
