Adaptive policy of buffer allocation and preventive maintenance actions in unreliable production lines
Abstract The buffer allocation problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem, and it is an important design problem in manufacturing systems. The research proposed in this paper concerns a product line consisting of n unreliable machines with n − 1 buffers and a preventive maintenance pol...
