Production planning and scheduling optimization model: a case of study for a glass container company

Based on a case study, this paper deals with the production planning and scheduling problem of the glass con-tainer industry. This is a facility production system that has a set of furnaces where the glass is produced in order to meet the demand, being afterwards distributed to a set of parallel molding machines. Due to huge setup times involved in a color changeover, manufacturers adopt their own mix of furnaces and machines to meet the needs of their customers as flexibly and efficiently as possible. In this paper we proposed an optimization model that maximizes the fulfillment of the demand considering typical constraints from the planning production formulation as well as real case production constraints such as the limited product changeovers and the minimum run length in a machine. The complexity of the proposed model is assessed by means of an industrial real life problem

Integrated approach to assignment, scheduling and routing problems

This research considers a real life case study that determines the minimum number of sellers required to attend a set of customers located in a certain region taking into account the weekly schedule plan of the visits, as well as the optimal route. The problem is formulated as a combination of assignment, scheduling and routing problems. In the new formulation, case studies of small size subset of customers of the above type can be solved optimally. However, this subset of customers is not representative within the business plan of the company. To overcome this limitation, the problem is divided into three phases. A greedy algorithm is used in Phase I in order to identify a set of cost-effective feasible clusters of customers assigned to a seller. Phase II and III are then used to solve the problem of a weekly program for visiting the customers as well as to determine the route plan using MILP formulation. Several real life instances of different sizes have been solved demonstrating the efficiency of the proposed approach

A Fuzzy Networked Control System Following Frequency Transmission Strategy

At present, network control systems employ a common approximation to solve the connectivity issue due to time delays coupled with external factors . However, this approach tends to be complex in terms of time delays, and the inherent local phase is missing. Therefore, it is necessary to study the behavior of the delays as well as the integration of the differential equations of these bounded delays. The related time delays need to be known a priori, but from a dynamic real-time perspective in order to understand the dynamic phase behavior. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the inclusion of the data frequency transmission and time delays that are bounded as parameters of the dynamic response from a real-time scheduling approximation, considering the local phase situation. The related control law is designed considering a fuzzy logic approximation for nonlinear time delays coupling. The main advantage is the integration of this behavior through extended state space representation. This keeps certain linear and bounded behavior leading to a stable situation during an events presentation, based on an accurate data transmission rate. An expected result is that the basics of the local phase missing as a result of the local bounded time delays from the lack of tide synchronization conforms to the modeling approximation

Análisis de observabilidad y controlabilidad para sistemas diferencialmente planos. Aplicación a un sistema de oscilaciones de calcio

106 páginas. Maestría en Ciencias de la Computación.Estudios experimentales teóricos han descubierto los mecanismos que gobiernan la mayoría de los fenómenos oscilatorios. Ritmos celulares de varios periodos están asociados con la regulación de la actividad enzimática, recepción, transporte o ritmos genéticos e naturaleza no eléctrica y con la regulación de conductancias iónicas en células eléctricamente excitables. es evidente que para la señalización celular es importante no sólo los estados estacionarios, también lo son los multiestables periódicos multirrímicos y procesos oscilatorios no periódicos
