The unpredictable market scenario in the manufacturing industry demands the adoption of
reconfigurability enablers. These enablers reduce the reconfiguration effort throughout the …

This paper addresses a multi-echelon capacitated location–allocation–inventory problem
under uncertainty by providing a robust mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model …

The design process of a cellular manufacturing system (CMS) involves well-known NP-hard
problems. Being an NP-hard, it is difficult to address these CMS-related problems optimally …

This study deals with the interaction of dynamic cellular manufacturing (DCM) and
hierarchical production planning (HPP) problems with stochastic demands for the first time …

This paper considers a real-world automobile second-tier supplier that manufactures
decorative surface finishings of injected parts provided by several suppliers, and which …

Design of an appropriate cellular manufacturing system (CMS) leads to system flexibility and
production efficiency by using the similarities in the manufacturing process of products. One …

In this paper, a bi-objective mixed-integer mathematical model is presented for configuration
of a dynamic cellular manufacturing system. In this model, dynamic changes and uncertainty …

This paper presents a new cell formation and cell layout problem considering multiple
process routings and subcontracting using the principles of queuing theory. It is assumed …

The purpose of this study is to consider an international facility location problem under
uncertainty and present an integrated model for strategic and operational planning. The …

In this paper, a novel quadratic assignment-based mathematical model is developed for
concurrent design of robust inter and intra-cell layouts in dynamic stochastic environments of …
