Application of Operations Research for Production Scheduling

Article Preview

Abstract:

To properly respond the market trends, the manufactory needs efficient production management. Maintenance scheduling is one of the critical factors to maximize the available machine time in the manufacturing process. Besides, other restrictions should be taken under the consideration, which include: sales forecasting, consideration of inventory level and storage capability for product storage. This paper focuses on using the method of operations research to replace the manual process of production scheduling.
