This study addresses a distributed assembly permutation flowshop scheduling problem,
which is of great significance in practical manufacturing systems. We aim to sequence …

The classical distributed flexible job shop scheduling problem (DFJSP) mainly considers
factory allocation, machine arrangement, job sequencing and transportation. To date, the …

Mass personalization manufacturing (MPM), an emerging production pattern, aims to
improve enterprise profit in modern industries. However, the processing of heterogeneous …

In this study, lot streaming in hybrid flowshop scheduling problem under machine capability
and limited waiting time (lwt) constraints is investigated. The HFSP plays a vital role in the …

Lot streaming is the most widely used technique to facilitate overlap** of successive
operations. Inspired by real-world scenarios, this paper studies a multi-objective hybrid …

Multi-variety and small-batch production mode enables manufacturing industries to
expeditiously satisfy customers' personalised demands, where a large amount of identical …

Distributed factory processing has attracted the attention and application of many companies
because of the low cost and high flexibility. In the present study, the self-adaptive artificial …

This study addresses a reconfigurable distributed flowshop group scheduling problem
(RDFGSP), the characteristics of which lie in the reconfigurability of the flowlines, and the …

Inspired by a real-world cellular manufacturing system for processing printed circuit boards
(PCBs), this study addresses a reconfigurable distributed flowshop scheduling problem …

Lot planning and production scheduling are two strong coupled sub-problems in the
manufacturing process. The lot-streaming technique divides the products into several lots …
