| Abstract: | Scheduling problems of multistage serial production systems are considered under constant demand and infinite horizon conditions. An integer nonlinear programming procedure is suggested for determining a stationary, cyclic schedule with no stock-outs in any inventory and minimum sum of set-up and inventory costs. It allows a lot-sizing policy involving arbitrary, noninteger splitting/merging of lots. Three almost optimal heuristic algorithms and an exact branch and bound algorithm are developed using analytical results.Their evaluation shows that the branch and bound algorithm is the best for solving such problems. |
