Abstract
For example, Wein (1988) compared various release control strategies and scheduling rules and provided the better combinations of release control strategy and scheduling rule for three kinds of HP 24 models. Peyrol et al. (1993) implemented a simulated annealing methodology to determine the input order of a given set of products so as to minimize the average residence time of these products in the plant with unlimited intermediate storage policy. They developed a discrete simulation program to determine the value of the objective function. This method was applied to a semiconductor circuit fabrication plant of MOTOROLA Inc. Thompson (1996) described a simulation-based finite capacity planning and scheduling software to allow human planners to make better decisions. This tool improved cycle time, throughput, and equipment utilization significantly without adding additional equipment and personnel. Baudouin et al. (1995) presented information system architecture and a decision support tool to allow admissible scheduling solutions in a semiconductor device manufacturing fab.
