- Title
Scheduling Parallel Production Lines with Changeover Costs: Practical Application of a Quadratic Assignment/LP Approach.
- Authors
Geoffrion, A. M.; Graves, G. W.
- Abstract
Production orders for a number of products must be scheduled on a number of similar production lines so as to minimize the sum of product-dependent changeover costs, production costs, and time-constraint penalties. We treat the problem by a quadratic assignment algorithm with a linear programming adjustment, and describe a successful practical application for chemical reactor scheduling.
