Summary: | 博士 === 國立台灣工業技術學院 === 管理技術研究所 === 85 === To minimize total mean flow time is an important criterion
in the production system. In this study, based on above
criterion, investiage the folling three scheduling
problems: (1) minimizing total mean flow time in a two-
machine flow shop, (2) minimizing total expected flow
time for a stochastic group scheduling problem (3)
minimizing total flow time under no tardy job for a single-
machine group scheduling problem.
The results are summarized as follows.
(1) In the two-machine flow shop problem, we propose a lower
bound for mean flow time and develop a branch-and-bound
algorithm aimed for the search of an optimal schedule.In
addition,we develop a two phase heuristic algorithm to find
a near optimal solution for the problem.
(2) In the stochastic group scheduling problem, the job
processing times are considered as random variables and
group setup times are functions of job processing times. We
obtain some properites of an optimal scheduling and extend
the problem to multi-machine case. (3) In the single-
machine group scheduling problem, we seek for an optimal
job sequence to minimize total mean flow time under no tardy
job. A polynomial algorithm is proposed to solve the problem.
