- Title
Rolling horizon scheduling in a rolling-mill.
- Authors
Stauffer, L.; Liebling, Th. M.
- Abstract
This paper treats a production planning problem in an aluminum manufacturing plant characterized by milling equipment subject to wear and replacement, furnaces with limited capacities and precedence rules and timing implied by temperatures and alloy types. We describe a rule-driven mathematical model and present an efficient rolling horizon scheduling algorithm based on tabu search as well as computational results.
