Abstract
Manufacturing systems producing multiple products are common in many industries, where products are made from several parts and/or sub-assemblies that require machining operations in first stage and assembly operations at later stage. Several scheduling techniques are proposed in the literature for such manufacturing system to develop near optimal schedule. A disruption in the manufacturing necessitates adjusting previously planned schedule which is known as real-time scheduling. This paper presents a comparative evaluation of different scheduling methods proposed by different investigators for dealing such situations. The literature indicates that real-time scheduling of manufacturing system with machining and assembly operations is hardly attempted. The paper offers a framework for developing rescheduling methodologies for such manufacturing situations.
