A Basic Period Approach for Solving the Economic Lot and Delivery Scheduling in Flexible Flow Lines

چکیده
In this paper, the problem of lot sizing, scheduling and delivery of several items in a twostage supply chain over a finite planning horizon is studied. Single supplier via a flexible flow line production system (FFL), produces several items and delivers them directly to an assembly facility. Based on basic period (BP) strategy, a new mixed zero-one nonlinear programming model has been developed with the objective of minimizing the average setup, inventory-holding and delivery costs per unit time in the supply chain without any stock-out. The problem is very complex and it can not be optimaly solved, especially in real-sized problems. So, an efficient hybrid genetic algorithm (HGA) has been proposed based on applying, the most applied BP approach i.e. power-of-two policy. Based on some problem instances, the solution quality of the algorithm has been evaluated and also compared with the common cycle approach. Numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed HGA.

متن کاملThe Finite Horizon Economic Lot Scheduling in Flexible Flow Lines
This paper addresses the common cycle multi-product lot-scheduling problem in flexible flow lines (FFL) where the product demands are deterministic and constant over a finite planning horizon. Objective is minimizing the sum of setup costs, work-in-process and final products inventory holding costs per time unite while satisfying the demands without backlogging. This problem consists of a combi...

This paper considers the economic lot and delivery scheduling problem in a two-echelon supply chains, where a single supplier produces multiple components on a flexible flow line (FFL) and delivers them directly to an assembly facility (AF). The objective is to determine a cyclic schedule that minimizes the sum of transportation, setup and inventory holding costs per unit time without shortage....
متن کاملModelling and Scheduling Lot Streaming Flexible Flow Lines
Although lot streaming scheduling is an active research field, lot streaming flexible flow lines problems have received far less attention than classical flow shops. This paper deals with scheduling jobs in lot streaming flexible flow line problems. The paper mathematically formulates the problem by a mixed integer linear programming model. This model solves small instances to optimality. Moreo...
متن کاملThe Economic Lot Scheduling Problem in Flow Lines with Sequence-Dependent Setups
The problem of lot sizing, sequencing and scheduling multiple products in flow line production systems has been studied by several authors. Almost all of the researches in this area assumed that setup times and costs are sequence –independent even though sequence dependent setups are common in practice. In this paper we present a new mixed integer non linear program (MINLP) and a heuristic me...
