摘要：Planning and scheduling of bottleneck operations is a fundamental problem in production management because bottleneck facilities control the output and profitability of the entire system. We develop optimal solutions for the product-mix planning, lot sizing, and scheduling of such bottleneck facilities. The integrated product-mix planning, lot sizing and scheduling problem yields a nonconvex, mixed-integer nonlinear program which is difficult to solve for global optimality. Our strategy is to ...

摘要：In this paper, we develop an approximate model of an inventory control system in which there exist two options for resupply, with one having a shorter lead-time. We assume that demand and the fixed ordering costs are small relative to the holding cost so that a one-for-one ordering policy is appropriate. We consider a policy for placing emergency orders that uses information about the age of outstanding orders. We derive the steady-state behavior of this policy and present some computational r...

摘要：Motivated by scheduling problems that arise in flexible manufacturing systems, we develop a heuristic procedure to obtain effective flow control (sequencing, routing, and input control) policies for multiclass queueing networks. The procedure employs a Brownian model of J. M. Harrison that approximates a multiclass queueing network with dynamic scheduling capability, if the total load imposed on each station in the queueing network is approximately equal to that station's capacity. In this pap...

摘要：The problem of data verification may be described as two sides that have concluded a contract stipulating that one side (the inspectee) is to report a set of data to the other (the inspector). The inspector has to decide on the basis of his own measurements whether to accept the data reported by the inspectee as correct or to assume they have been falsified. This situation is modeled as a statistical game, and practical solutions are supplied. We consider the verification of n data with a samp...
