Abstract |
|
A flexible manufacturing cell consisting of two machining centers, several automated storage retrieval stations, and a mobile
transporting robot is considered. The problem is to schedule jobs on machines so as to minimize the makespan, with the effects of
transportation and set-ups to be taken into account. The problem is studied with the aid of a graph model, and an exact algorithm of
cubic complexity is derived based on the Gilmore- Gomory algorithm for the travelling salesman problem |
