An example for scheduling a chemical processing tank line

This paper presents an algorithm for scheduling a chemical processing line with one piece of material handling equipment to transfer jobs through the line. An easy to use scheduler is developed which can be used to schedule a line or analyze the line design parameters during the design stage to achi...

Description
Summary:This paper presents an algorithm for scheduling a chemical processing line with one piece of material handling equipment to transfer jobs through the line. An easy to use scheduler is developed which can be used to schedule a line or analyze the line design parameters during the design stage to achieve the maximum throughput while not allowing defects.
