Abstract

The success of a production system depends on effective production scheduling and control on the shop floor. There are advantages of using a human-computer interactive scheduling methodology. In this article, a prototype of real-time scheduling support system is developed based on a model of human behavior in scheduling tasks. By conducting an experiment, the total setup time and scheduling time of the subjects with and without support system (i.e., entirely manual method) are compared. In addition, a descriptive analysis of total setup time between four common dispatching rules and experimental data is presented. Through the experiment, some useful information about schedulers' experiences is summarized for further study.
