Manufacturing systems work with scarce resources in dynamic environments. Managers need to assign production facilities to parallel activities, respecting operational constraints and deadlines while keeping costs low. Old scheduling approaches are inadequate when a taskboth requires a set of different resources and a trade-off between objectives. More sophisticated models and algorithms are needed by these managers. This book provides robust methods for achieving effective resource allocation. It also solves problems such as resource levelling, sizing of machines and production layouts, cost optimization in production planning and scheduling that occur daily and often generate cost overruns. The quantitative methodsused cover both mathematical programming and algorithms, leading to high quality solutions. Details of experimentation putthese techniquesin a practical perspective. This book is a valuable resource for postgraduate students and researchers inbusiness, engineering or computer science.
