Abstract

In recent years, the situations surrounding manufacturing systems arc becoming increasingly large-scale and uncertain, and structures of them are becoming complex. Scheduling for such large-scale and complex manufacturing systems is more difficult and time-consuming task. For deciding the suitable schedule efficiently in such manufacturing systems, concurrent scheduling method for hierarchical distributed manufacturing systems has been proposed. In this study, we extend this method by considering the overlapping term of multiple jobs in order to increase the efficiency of entire manufacturing activity. Finally, we verify the effectiveness of the proposed method through some computational experiments.
