摘要:We provide a new formulation and solution procedure to sequence a mixed model just-in-time (JIT) assembly system. Mixed model JIT assembly systems are a fundamental part of the well-known Toyota Production System. The underlying idea in sequencing these systems is to maintain a constant usage rate of all parts on the line. We give a polynomial algorithm to determine the optimal sequence for an objective function that is mathematically different, but intuitively similar to the objective functio...
