Abstract
A problem of scheduling the production of pharmaceuticals in a limited number of vessels is presented. It has the characteristics of sequence dependent changeover times, multi-stage production, parallel usage of vessels and flexibility in the choice of vessels. An optimizing procedure is discussed, but dismissed as computationally infeasible. Consequently, a heuristic is developed, and its performance evaluated. Typical results are also reported.
