Métodos heurísticos construtivos para redução do estoque em processo em ambientes de produção flow shop híbridos com tempos de setup dependentes da seqüência / Constructive heuristics methods to minimizing work in process in environment production hybrid flow shop with asymmetric sequence dependent setup times

Márcia de Fátima Morais 28 May 2008 (has links)
A teoria de programação da produção preocupa-se em fornecer diretrizes e métodos eficientes para a utilização dos recursos nas atividades produtivas. Este trabalho investiga o problema de programação da produção em ambientes flow shop com máquinas múltiplas e tempos de preparação das máquinas assimétricos e dependentes da seqüência de execução das tarefas. A atividade de programação da produção constitui uma das várias funções executadas pelo planejamento e controle da produção, que tem como objetivo comandar e gerenciar o processo produtivo, e caracteriza uma das atividades mais complexas no gerenciamento dos sistemas produtivos. A programação da produção preocupa-se com a alocação de recursos sobre o tempo para executar um conjunto de tarefas. No ambiente estudado neste trabalho as operações de cada tarefa são executadas em múltiplos estágios de produção, podendo variar a quantidade de máquinas em cada um deles. Cada operação é processada por apenas uma máquina em cada estágio. Os tempos de preparação das máquinas possuem uma variabilidade relevante em função da ordem de execução das tarefas nas mesmas. A função-objetivo considerada é a minimização do tempo médio de fluxo. Foram desenvolvidos quatro métodos heurísticos construtivos com base em algoritmos reportados na literatura para solução do problema flow shop permutacional e máquinas paralelas cujo tempo de setup é dependente da seqüência de execução das tarefas. Como não foram encontrados na literatura métodos de solução para o problema investigado neste trabalho, os algoritmos propostos foram comparados entre si. Foi efetuado um estudo da influência da relação entre as ordens de grandeza dos tempos de processamento das tarefas e do setup das máquinas em cada método de solução. Os resultados obtidos na experimentação computacional foram analisados e discutidos com base na porcentagem de sucesso, desvio relativo, desvio-padrão do desvio relativo e tempo médio de computação. / Scheduling theory attempts to provide guidelines and efficient methods to the use of the resources in the productive activities. This study investigates the hybrid flow shop problem with asymmetric sequence dependent setup times. The activity of production scheduling constitute is one of the several functions carried by production planning and control, which has as the objective command and management the production system, and characterize is one of the tasks most complex in production management. This activity of the scheduling aims within the allocation of the resources for the execution of jobs in a time base. In the environment studied in this work, the operations of each job are processed in multiple production stages. The number of machines in each stage can be different. Each operation is processed by only one machine in each stage. The setup times have a significant variability in function of the sequence of job processing on the machines. The objective is minimizing the mean flow time. Four constructive heuristic methods were proposed on the basis of algorithms reported in the literature for solving permutation flow shop and parallel machine problems with sequence dependent setup times. The proposed heuristic methods will have compared between themselves, since no constructive heuristics have been found in the literature for the scheduling problem considered in this work. It was carried out the study of the influence of the relations among the range of the times processing and setup times in each method. The statistics used in order to evaluate the heuristic performances were the percentage of success (in finding the best solution), relative deviation, standard deviation of relative deviation and average computation time. Results from computational experience are discussed.

Simulationsgestützte Kapazitätsbedarfsabschätzung in der operativen Produktionsplanung und -steuerung

Lange, Frederick 10 October 2014 (has links)
Die Produktionsplanung in kommerziellen Enterprise Ressource Planning Systemen und Produktionsplanungs- und -steuerungssystemen erfolgt unter unzureichender Berücksichtigung von beschränkten Kapazitäten. Dies führt oft zu unzulässigen Plänen, welche nicht selten zu einer Verfehlung der termingerechten Bedarfsdeckung führen. Durch den Einsatz sogenannter Clearing Functions (CF) können die nicht linearen Abhängigkeiten zwischen der Arbeitslast eines Produktionssystems und der zu erwartenden Ausbringungsmenge beschrieben werden. Eine solche CF kann empirisch durch den Einsatz von Simulation ermittelt werden und zu einer verbesserten Kapazitätsabschätzung in der operativen Produktionsplanung und -steuerung beitragen.

Optimization of Production Scheduling at IKEA Industry Hultsfred

Anemyr, Mattias January 2020 (has links)
IKEA Industry has factories in several locations where one location is in Hultsfred, Småland. IKEA Industry Hultsfred produces IKEA:s wardrobe collection PAX. In 2018, 2.8 million wardrobes were manufactured in Hultsfred. This thesis covers the subject of constructing and developing an optimization model which has the same characteristics as the plinth production at IKEA Industry Hultsfred. This means that the optimization model must consider production sequence; the setup time is different depending on which products that have been produced in the machine earlier. The thesis also covers to investigate how much time that is necessary to produce the plinths to Hultsfred, Portugal, and Germany under different circumstances. This thesis also balances inventory levels and setup time. I.e., how the inventory levels are changed if more emphasis is put into minimizing setup time, and the other way around. The results show that lower inventory levels and setup times are achievable over seven days if the production planning technique is changed.

A study of causes of delay and cost overrun in office construction projects in the eThekwini Municipal Area, South Africa

Adugna, Nafkote Tesfahun January 2015 (has links)
Submitted in fulfillment of the academic requirements for the degree of Master of Technology in Construction Management, Durban University of Technology, Durban, South Africa, 2015. / On-time completion and conformity with assigned cost of every project are the most important factors in the success of project plans. Cost overruns and time overrun (delays) have been critical problems of many projects around the world in general and in South Africa in particular. The main objectives of this research are to assess the dominant causes of cost and time overruns, identifying possible and practical measures that can minimize overruns in office building construction projects around eThekwini Municipal area of Kwazulu-Natal. These objectives are achieved through the implementation of the research methodologies that are mainly literature review and questionnaire survey conducted to identify and evaluate the significant factors contributing to delay and cost overruns within the projects of interest. A review of literature identified eighty-five variables for delay, grouped in nine major categories and nine variables for cost overruns ranked in their order of importance in three sets based on the responses from the professionals working for the client, consultants and contractors. The agreement among the sets of rankings for delay and cost overruns has also been tested using statistical methods. The result indicates that there is strong agreement on ranking the importance of the individual variables of delay and cost overruns between parties. From each of the three sets of rankings, the twenty most important variables of delay and the three most important variables of cost overrun are identified as critical. Based on overall results, the top five most important causes are contractor’s cash flow problems, delay in progress payments by the client, poor site supervision and management by contractor, inefficient quality control by the contractor during construction leading to rework due to errors, and contractor’s difficulties in financing the project. Out of the 20 most important delay causing variables, three are found to be common between all parties. These are delay in progress payments by the client, delay in delivery and late ordering of material, and insufficient skill of labour. Furthermore, the study reveals that all stakeholders of construction parties are deeply involved in contributing to the causes of the problems. Thus, in order to eliminate or minimize cost and time extension of office construction projects in the eThekwini Municipal area, a joint effort based on teamwork is essential through effective project planning, controlling and monitoring which boils down to putting in place best practice construction project management.

Métodos heurísticos construtivos para o problema de programação de operações Flow Shop híbrido com estágio de produção dominante / Constructive heuristics methods for hybrid Flow Shop problem with dominant periods of production

Silva, Pedro Paulo da 14 March 2005 (has links)
Este trabalho trata o problema multi-estágios de programação da produção em ambientes Flow Shop com máquinas paralelas, apresentando um estágio de produção dominante (máquina única), no qual os tempos de preparação (setup) da máquina são assimétricos e dependentes da seqüência de execução das tarefas. Tal ambiente é constituído de k estágios de produção, com k = {4, 7}, divididos em três etapas assim definidas: na etapa um, o número de estágios de produção pode variar de um até cinco e cada estágio será constituído de m1 máquinas paralelas idênticas , com m1 &#8712 {2, 3, 4}, o que determina m1 flow shops paralelos. A etapa dois constitui o estágio dominante d, cuja localização oscila dependendo do número de estágios das etapas um e três. Por ultimo, a etapa três, semelhante à etapa um, possui m2 máquinas paralelas idênticas, onde m2 &#8712 {2, 3, 4} e m1 e m2 são gerados aleatoriamente. Todas as tarefas são processadas nas três etapas e o critério de desempenho é a otimização da duração total da programação (makespan) e também a análise do deslocamento do estágio dominante. A programação das tarefas é feita separadamente em cada uma das etapas. Na primeira etapa foi utilizado o método heurístico N&M para cada um dos m1 flow shops paralelos. Para segunda etapa foram desenvolvidos quatro regras e dois métodos heurísticos construtivos com base nos problemas do caixeiro viajante (TSP). Na última etapa, a alocação das tarefas é feita por ordem de chegada na máquina disponível ou com menor carga. Não foram encontrados na literatura trabalhos que retratassem ambientes dessa natureza, logo os métodos desenvolvidos foram comparados entre si. A experimentação computacional analisou os resultados obtidos por meio da porcentagem de sucesso de cada regra, desvio relativo entre os resultados de cada regra, deslocamento da posição do estágio dominante, influência das ordens de grandeza dos tempos de processamento e setup e tempo médio de computação. / This dissertation deals with problem multi-periods of production scheduling of the in Flow Shop environment with parallel machines, presenting a period of dominant production (single machine), in which the setup times for the processing of the jobs is asymmetric and sequence dependent on the execution of the jobs. Such environment is constituted by k periods of production, with k = {4, 7} divided in to three stages defined as: First stage: In stage one the number of production periods can vary from one to five, and each period will be constituted of m1 &#8712 {2, 3, 4} identical parallel machines, determining m1 parallel flow shops. Stage two - It constitutes the dominant period d, whose localization oscillates between the periods of stages one and three. Finally stage three it is similar to stage one, and has m2 &#8712 {2, 3, 4} identical parallel machines, where m1 and m2 Randomly generated. All the jobs are processed in the three stages and the objective is to optimize the total time to complete the scheduling (makespan) and also to analyze the displacement of the dominant period position. The scheduling of the jobs was performed separately in each of the stages. In the first stage the heuristic method N&M was used for each m1 parallel flow shops. In the second stage four constructive rules and two heuristic methods were developed based on traveling salesman problems (TSP). In the last stage the allocation of the jobs was performed according to the arrival time of the available machine or with lesser load. This type of work has not been found in literature; therefore the developed methods were compared among themselves. The statistics used in order to evaluate the heuristic performances were the percentage of success (in finding the best solution), relative deviation and average computational time. The displacement of the dominant period position as well as the influence of the relation of setup-times and processing-times, were also studied. The results of computational experience are discussed.

Beam Search e inserção de ociosidade no problema de programação de uma máquina em ambiente do tipo JIT. / Beam Search and idle time insertion in the single-machine scheduling problem in a JIT environment.

Colin, Emerson Carlos 14 October 1997 (has links)
Este trabalho apresenta procedimentos que podem ser utilizados na programação da produção em um ambiente JIT. Esses procedimentos deveriam ser utilizados em sistemas clássicos de programação, onde a utilização do sistema kanban é inviável. O caso estudado se baseia em uma única máquina, com datas de entrega múltiplas e com penalidades distintas de adiantamento e de atraso para cada ordem. O objetivo a ser alcançado é a minimização do custo total. Para isso, é utilizado um procedimento de busca denominado beam search, para gerar as seqüências, e um algoritmo de inserção de ociosidade, para definir os programas. O algoritmo utilizado é uma generalização do algoritmo de GAREY et al. (1988) onde as penalidades são distintas para adiantamento e para atraso. O procedimento e o algoritmo são testados em várias condições sendo comparados com regras de despacho e com a função EXP-ET. Quando a função EXP-ET é utilizada com a possibilidade de inserção de ociosidade, o período de ociosidade ótimo é determinado. Assume-se que a dificuldade de solução do problema é dependente de dois parâmetros clássicos: fator de atraso médio e amplitude relativa das datas de entrega. Testes empíricos comparativos são realizados através de simulação computacional, onde se mede o tempo de solução e o valor alcançado pela função objetivo. Os resultados indicam que o desempenho dos vários procedimentos testados é altamente dependente dos dois parâmetros, mostrando que para a escolha de um procedimento apropriado, deve-se primeiramente conhecer o valor dos parâmetros. São fornecidos os resultados encontrados e os códigos computacionais utilizados no estudo. / This work presents some procedures which can be used in production scheduling problems in JIT environments. These procedures may be used in cases of classical production scheduling where the use of the kanban system is infeasible. The case studied is based on a single machine, with multiple due dates, and distinct earliness and tardiness penalties for each job. The objective function is to minimize total cost. A heuristic search procedure known as beam search is used to construct sequences of jobs, and an idleness insertion algorithm is used to obtain schedules. The algorithm used is a generalization of the GAREY et al. (1988) algorithm, where penalties are distinct for earliness and tardiness. The procedure and algorithm are tested in many conditions involving comparisons with dispatching rules and the EXP-ET function. When EXP-ET function is applied with possibility of idleness insertion, the optimal idleness period is provided. It was assumed that problem hardness is dependent on two classical parameters: average tardiness factor and relative range of due dates. Empirical comparative tests are conducted with computational simulation, where computational solution time and objective function value are evaluated. Results indicate that procedures performance is highly dependent on both parameters, showing that is necessary to know parameters values before choosing an appropriate procedure. The detailed results and computational code used in this study are also provided.
