Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study the input control and dispatching rules that might be used in a flow shop controlled by a constant work-in-process system (CONWIP) within a make-to-stock environment. The CONWIP system was originally conceived for a single card-count control and a FCFS dispatching rule, although in this paper it is shown that its performance can be increased by using other input controls as well as different dispatching rules.
