Abstract: | A mathematical programming model is presented for the Kanban system in a deterministic multi-stage capacitated assembly-tree-structure production setting. A general solution procedure is provided to the model and three special cases of practical interest are discussed. It is suggested that future research topics would include the development of Kanban models for the distribution-type and mixed-type production settings, the inclusion of independent demands for upstream items, and a direct treatment of uncertainties in the model. |
