Bütünleşik tedarik zinciri çizelgeleme modelleri: Bir literatür taraması
Research on integration of supply chain and scheduling is relatively recent, and
number of studies on this topic is increasing. This study provides a comprehensive
literature survey about Integrated Supply Chain Scheduling (ISCS) models to help
identify deficiencies in this area. For this purpose, it is thought that this study will
contribute in terms of guiding researchers working in this field. In this study,
existing literature on ISCS problems are reviewed and summarized by introducing
the new classification scheme. The studies were categorized by considering the
features such as the number of customers (single or multiple), product lifespan
(limited or unlimited), order sizes (equal or general), vehicle characteristics
(limited/sufficient and homogeneous/heterogeneous), machine configurations and
number of objective function (single or multi objective). In addition, properties of
mathematical models applied for problems and solution approaches are also
discussed.Bütünleşik Tedarik Zinciri Çizelgeleme (BTZÇ) üzerine yapılan araştırmalar

Shop Scheduling In The Presence Of Batching, Sequence-dependent Setups And Incompatible Job Families Minimizing Earliness And Tardiness Penalties
The motivation of this research investigation stems from a particular job shop production environment at a large international communications and information technology company in which electro-mechanical assemblies (EMAs) are produced. The production environment of the EMAs includes the continuous arrivals of the EMAs (generally called jobs), with distinct due dates, degrees of importance and routing sequences through the production workstations, to the job shop. Jobs are processed in batches at the workstations, and there are incompatible families of jobs, where jobs from different product families cannot be processed together in the same batch. In addition, there are sequence-dependent setups between batches at the workstations. Most importantly, it is imperative that all product deliveries arrive on time to their customers (internal and external) within their respective delivery time windows. Delivery is allowed outside a time window, but at the expense of a penalty. Completing a job and delivering the job before the start of its respective time window results in a penalty, i.e., inventory holding cost. Delivering a job after its respective time window also results in a penalty, i.e., delay cost or emergency shipping cost. This presents a unique scheduling problem where an earlinesstardiness composite objective is considered. This research approaches this scheduling problem by decomposing this complex job shop scheduling environment into bottleneck and non-bottleneck resources, with the primary focus on effectively scheduling the bottleneck resource. Specifically, the problem of scheduling jobs with unique due dates on a single workstation under the conditions of batching, sequence-dependent iii setups, incompatible job families in order to minimize weighted earliness and tardiness is formulated as an integer linear program. This scheduling problem, even in its simplest form, is NP-Hard, where no polynomial-time algorithm exists to solve this problem to optimality, especially as the number of jobs increases. As a result, the computational time to arrive at optimal solutions is not of practical use in industrial settings, where production scheduling decisions need to be made quickly. Therefore, this research explores and proposes new heuristic algorithms to solve this unique scheduling problem. The heuristics use order review and release strategies in combination with priority dispatching rules, which is a popular and more commonly-used class of scheduling algorithms in real-world industrial settings. A computational study is conducted to assess the quality of the solutions generated by the proposed heuristics. The computational results show that, in general, the proposed heuristics produce solutions that are competitive to the optimal solutions, yet in a fraction of the time. The results also show that the proposed heuristics are superior in quality to a set of benchmark algorithms within this same class of heuristic
Available-to-promise (ATP) systems: a classification and framework for analysis
Available-to-promise (ATP) systems deal with a number of managerial decisions related to order capture activities in a company, including order acceptance/rejection, due date setting, and resource scheduling. These different but interrelated decisions have often been studied in an isolated manner, and, to the best of our knowledge, no framework has been presented to integrate them into the broader perspective of order capture. This paper attempts to provide a general framework for ATP-related decisions. By doing so, we: (1) identify the different decision problems to be addressed; (2) present the different literature-based models supporting related decisions into a coherent framework; and (3) review the main contributions in the literature for each one of these. We first describe different approaches for order capture available in the literature, depending on two parameters related to the application context of ATP systems, namely the inclusion of explicit information about due dates in the decision model, and the level of integration among decisions. According to these parameters, up to six approaches for ATP-related decisions are identified. Secondly, we show the subsequent decision problems derived from the different approaches, and describe the main issues and key references involving each one of these decision problems. Finally, a number of conclusions and future research lines are discussed.Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación DPI2007-6134
Order Acceptance and Scheduling: A Taxonomy and Review
Over the past 20 years, the topic of order acceptance has attracted considerable attention from those who study scheduling and those who practice it. In a firm that strives to align its functions so that profit is maximized, the coordination of capacity with demand may require that business sometimes be turned away. In particular, there is a trade-off between the revenue brought in by a particular order, and all of its associated costs of processing. The present study focuses on the body of research that approaches this trade-off by considering two decisions: which orders to accept for processing, and how to schedule them. This paper presents a taxonomy and a review of this literature, catalogs its contributions and suggests opportunities for future research in this area
Cyclic scheduling of perishable products in parallel machine with release dates, due dates and deadlines
This paper deals with a realistic cyclic scheduling problem in the food industry environment in which
parallel machines are considered to process perishable jobs with given release dates, due dates and
deadlines. Jobs are subject to post-production shelf life limitation and must be delivered to retailers
during the corresponding time window bounded by due dates and deadlines. Both early and tardy jobs
are penalized by partial weighted earliness/tardiness functions and the overall problem is to provide
a cyclic schedule of minimum cost. A mixed integer programming model is proposed and a heuristic
solution beside an iterated greedy algorithm is developed to generate good and feasible solutions for the
problem. The proposed MIP, heuristic and iterated greedy produce a series of solutions covering a wide
range of cases from slow optimal solutions to quick and approximated schedules.Ruben Ruiz is partially supported by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness, under the project "RESULT - Realistic Extended Scheduling Using Light Techniques" with reference DPI2012-36243-C02-01 co-financed by the European Union and FEDER funds and by the Universitat Politecnica de Valencia, for the project MRPIV with reference PAID/2012/202.Shirvani, N.; Ruiz García, R.; Shadrokh, S.

Design of a Hybrid Genetic Algorithm for Parallel Machines Scheduling to Minimize Job Tardiness and Machine Deteriorating Costs with Deteriorating Jobs in a Batched Delivery System
This paper studies the parallel machine scheduling problem subject to machine and job deterioration in a batched delivery system. By the machine deterioration effect, we mean that each machine deteriorates over time, at a different rate. Moreover, job processing times are increasing functions of their starting times and follow a simple linear deterioration. The objective functions are minimizing total tardiness, delivery, holding and machine deteriorating costs. The problem of total tardiness on identical parallel machines is NP-hard, thus the under investigation problem, which is more complicated, is NP-hard too. In this study, a mixed-integer programming (MILP) model is presented and an efficient hybrid genetic algorithm (HGA) is proposed to solve the concerned problem. A new crossover and mutation operator and a heuristic algorithm have also been proposed depending on the type of problem. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed model and solution procedure, a set of small to large test problems are generated and results are discussed. The related results show the effectiveness of the proposed model and GA for test problems
Hybrid Genetic Bees Algorithm applied to Single Machine Scheduling with Earliness and Tardiness Penalties
This paper presents a hybrid Genetic-Bees Algorithm based optimised solution for the single machine scheduling problem. The enhancement of the Bees Algorithm (BA) is conducted using the Genetic Algorithm's (GA's) operators during the global search stage. The proposed enhancement aims to increase the global search capability of the BA gradually with new additions. Although the BA has very successful implementations on various type of optimisation problems, it has found that the algorithm suffers from weak global search ability which increases the computational complexities on NP-hard type optimisation problems e.g. combinatorial/permutational type optimisation problems. This weakness occurs due to using a simple global random search operation during the search process. To reinforce the global search process in the BA, the proposed enhancement is utilised to increase exploration capability by expanding the number of fittest solutions through the genetical variations of promising solutions. The hybridisation process is realised by including two strategies into the basic BA, named as â\u80\u9creinforced global searchâ\u80\u9d and â\u80\u9cjumping functionâ\u80\u9d strategies. The reinforced global search strategy is the first stage of the hybridisation process and contains the mutation operator of the GA. The second strategy, jumping function strategy, consists of four GA operators as single point crossover, multipoint crossover, mutation and randomisation. To demonstrate the strength of the proposed solution, several experiments were carried out on 280 well-known single machine benchmark instances, and the results are presented by comparing to other well-known heuristic algorithms. According to the experiments, the proposed enhancements provides better capability to basic BA to jump from local minima, and GBA performed better compared to BA in terms of convergence and the quality of results. The convergence time reduced about 60% with about 30% better results for highly constrained jobs

A Digital Twin Framework for Production Planning Optimization: Applications for Make-To-Order Manufacturers
In this dissertation, we develop a Digital Twin framework for manufacturing systems and apply it to various production planning and scheduling problems faced by Make-To-Order (MTO) firms. While this framework can be used to digitally represent a particular manufacturing environment with high fidelity, our focus is in using it to generate realistic settings to test production planning and scheduling algorithms in practice. These algorithms have traditionally been tested by either translating a practical situation into the necessary modeling constructs, without discussion of the assumptions and inaccuracies underlying this translation, or by generating random instances of the modeling constructs, without assessing the limitations in accurately representing production environments. The consequence has been a serious gap between theory advancement and industry practice. The major goal of this dissertation is to develop a framework that allows for practical testing, evaluation, and implementation of new approaches for seamless industry adoption. We develop this framework as a modular software package and emphasize the practicality and configurability of the framework, such that minimal modelling effort is required to apply the framework to a multitude of optimization problems and manufacturing systems. Throughout this dissertation, we emphasize the importance of the underlying scheduling problems which provide the basis for additional operational decision making. We focus on the computational evaluation and comparisons of various modeling choices within the developed frameworks, with the objective of identifying models which are both effective and computationally efficient. In Part 1 of this dissertation, we consider a class of Production Planning and Execution problems faced by job shop manufacturing systems. In Part 2 of this dissertation, we consider a class of scheduling problems faced by manufacturers whose production system is dominated by a single operation
