In mass customization (MC), the assembly operations of modular products tend to be organized as form flexible mixed-model line (FMMAL). The dynamic scheduling problem FMMAL is quite complex with product sequencing, station allocation, material delivery, disruption events failure, inserting and reworking. To solve these problems, a comprehensive framework combining architecture Internet Manufact...

In production systems of automobile manufacturers multi-variant products are assembled on paced mixed-model assembly lines, which have to be supplied by a lean in-house logistic with containers of different sizes, alternative supply policies and different number of parts. The assignment of operations to workplaces within the assembly line balancing problem and the assignment of containers to su...

Virus populations can display high genetic diversity within individual hosts. The intra-host collection of viral haplotypes, called viral quasispecies, is an important determinant of virulence, pathogenesis, and treatment outcome. We present HaploClique, a computational approach to reconstruct the structure of a viral quasispecies from next-generation sequencing data as obtained from bulk seque...

Mass production of goods with customer specific features is mostly carried out on production lines. Job-dependent processing times in the lines individual work zones necessitate line sequencing, in order to use the line well to capacity. In this contribution, a two-step-method allowing fast sequencing even for huge numbers of jobs and product types is presented. The knowledge about the line cha...

Considering the present business competitive scenario, the automotive industry is under pressure to achieve higher productivity. A high level of performance and quality standard could be achieved through improving the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) of the equipment in an automotive industry. Thus, the aim of this study is to investigate the performance measurement through OEE theory in a...
