Abstract
This paper presents design-and-development details of a knowledge-based system that solve multi-objective assembly line balancing problems to obtain an optimal assignment of a set of assembly tasks to a sequence of workstations. Assembly line balancing problems arise in high-volume production systems with a significant regularity. The formulation and solutions currently employed by managers and practitioners usually aims at optimizing one objective (e.g., number of work stations or cycle time), thus ignoring the multi-dimensional nature of the overall objectives of the manager. Furthermore, in practice ALBPs are ill-defined and ill-structured, making it difficult to formulate and solve them by mere mathematical approaches. The knowledge-based system multi-objective assembly line balancing approach, presented in this paper, addresses these needs. This paper presents a knowledge-base multi-objective approach to assembly line balancing problems. It demonstrates how such a system can be constructed and how a ...
