Abstract

In this part of the paper, we present the development and evaluation of dispatching rules for scheduling in jobshops manufacturing multi-level assembly jobs with the performance measures reated to tardiness. We present a new definition of 'operation due date' in the context of assembly jobs and use it in the development of dispatching rules. A simulation study is carried out to evaluate the performances of the existing and the proposed dispatching rules with respect to different measures of tardiness. We also measure their performances with respect to different measures of flowtime and staging delays. The results of the study indicate that the proposed rules perform better than the existing rules.
