Abstract
In this paper the problem of optimum sequence of operations in the multi-stage manufacturing system (for example, some machining centres or NC machine tools combining some operations) is studied for achieving minimum total cutting cost. In order to determine the optimum sequence of operations in the multi-stage manufacturing system, dynamic programming has been applied to its numerical model, which is obtained by relating the optimum sequence of operations to the optimum job allocation for each operation, and it is pointed out that dynamic programming is a powerful tool for determining the optimum sequence of operations in the multistage manufacturing system.
