9780265910184: Real-Time Simulation and Production Scheduling Systems (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

Learn how real-time simulations can optimize production scheduling and boost factory performance.

This guide explains how flexible manufacturing systems schedule resources in real time. It covers online Monte Carlo simulations, continuous data updates, and the challenges of forecasting system response from changing initial states. The book also describes the data and models needed to build robust, real-time scheduling tools in a production environment.

  • How online simulations use shop-floor data to compare scheduling rules in real time
  • What inputs matter: current state, process plans, routing, and timing data
  • How outputs are structured to evaluate jobs, processes, and buffers across a horizon
  • Approaches to statistical analysis and choosing the best scheduling rule

Ideal for engineers and managers who design or operate production scheduling systems in manufacturing settings.
