| Abstract: | A group of machines for processing a set of jobs in manufacturing system is often located in a serial line. This research proposes a two-stage solution methodology to ease the computation and to obtain a better solution. First, the problem of sets of identical machines is decomposed into sets of unique machines to find the machine assignment. Second, the task is to find the flow assignment by holding the machine assignment found in the previous stage. |
