In the global supply chain system it is required to integrate production scheduling and distribution planning, in order to be more efficient and to get more economics advantages. This paper presents seafood production planning and scheduling of a fishery manufacture company which produces simultaneously multi kind of seafood products from several classes of raw fish resources. The perishability...

In order to reduce costs and increase efficiency of a supply chain system, cross docking is one of the most important strategies of warehousing for consolidation shipments from different suppliers to different customers. Products are collected from suppliers by inbound trucks and then moved to customers by outbound trucks through cross dock. Scheduling of trucks plays important role in the cros...

An enhanced version of Sturdy MASH (SMASH) [2] delta-sigma modulator is proposed. This structure takes advantage of the well-known stability of the MASH structure while greatly reducing its sensitivity to imperfect circuit blocks. Furthermore, no digital noise cancellation filters are needed. Hence there is no matching requirement for the analog and digital paths. With the proposed enhancement ...

In this paper, based on the cyclic scheduling formulation of Schilling and Pantelides [22], we propose a continuous time mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulation for the cyclic scheduling of a mixed plant, i.e. a plant composed of batch and continuous tasks. The cycle duration is a variable of the model and the objective is to maximize productivity. By using strengthening techniques ...

large unilamellar liposomes and multilamellar vesicles consisting of dmpc interacted with cationic phosphorus-containing dendrimers cpds g3 and g4. dsc and ζ -potential measurements have shown that liposomal-dendrimeric molecular recognition occurs due to the interaction between the complementary surface groups. calorimetric studies indicate that the enthalpy of the transition of the lipids tha...

the research on project scheduling has widely expanded over the last few decades. the vast majority of these research efforts focus on exact and suboptimal procedures for constructing a workable schedule, assuming complete information and a static deterministic problem environment. project activities are scheduled subject to both technological precedence constraints and resource constraints, mo...

Enhancing Branch-and-Bound Algorithms for Order Acceptance and Scheduling with Genetic Programming Su Nguyen, Mengjie Zhang, Mark Johnston Order acceptance and scheduling (OAS) is an important planning activity in make-to-order manufacturing systems. Making good acceptance and scheduling decisions allows the systems to utilise their manufacturing resources better and achieve higher total profit...
