Economically Coordinated Job Shop Scheduling and Decision Point Bidding - An Example for Economic Coordination in Manufacturing and Logistics

چکیده

We discuss the application of economic coordination mechanisms to scheduling problems in manufacturing and logistics. We use job shop scheduling as a sample problem domain. We study economically augmented job shop problems (EJSP) which comprise valuation information. We demonstrate how instances of EJSP can be mapped to combinatorial job shop auction problems (CJSAP). A discussion of the tractability of approaches that determine optimal solutions identifies the need for heuristics. We suggest a heuristic that combines the merits of economic coordination with the benefits of closely domain-related solution procedures. We conclude that the application of newly suggested and/or well-known economic coordination mechanisms to job shop and related scheduling problems in manufacturing and logistics seem promising.

Economically Augmented Job Shop Scheduling

We present economically augmented job shop scheduling (EJSP) as an example of a coordination problem among selfinterested agents with private information. We discuss its significance in modern organizational supply-web structures, analyze its complexity and present a specific type of combinatorial auctions as a solution mechanism. We relate EJSP to results from the area of economic mechanism de...

A fuzzy multi-objective linear programming approach for solving a new multi-objective job shop scheduling with sequence-dependent setup times

This paper presents a new mathematical model for a bi-objective job shop scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times that minimizes the weighted mean completion time and the weighted mean tardiness time. For solving this multi-objective model, we develop a fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (FMOLP) model. In this problem, a proposed FMOLP method is applied with respect to the o...

A modified branch and bound algorithm for a vague flow-shop scheduling problem

Uncertainty plays a significant role in modeling and optimization of real world systems. Among uncertain approaches, fuzziness describes impreciseness while for ambiguity another definition is required. Vagueness is a probabilistic model of uncertainty being helpful to include ambiguity into modeling different processes especially in industrial systems. In this paper, a vague set based on dista...

A Job Shop Scheduling and Location of Battery Charging Storage for the Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)

When the Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are transferring the parts from one machine to another in a job shop environment, it is possible that AGVsstopon their guidepaths since their batteries are discharged.Consequently, it is essential to establish at least one Battery Charging Storage (BCS) to replace full batteries with empty batteries for the stopped AGVs. Due to non-predictable routes fo...

Solving the Dynamic Job Shop Scheduling Problem using Bottleneck and Intelligent Agents based on Genetic Algorithm

The problem of Dynamic Job Shop (DJS) scheduling is one of the most complex problems of machine scheduling. This problem is one of NP-Hard problems for solving which numerous heuristic and metaheuristic methods have so far been presented. Genetic Algorithms (GA) are one of these methods which are successfully applied to these problems. In these approaches, of course, better quality of solutions...
