Abstract: This note discusses three points about the problem of sequencing units on a mixed-model assembly line in ‘A bit-wise mutation algorithm for mixed-model sequencing in JIT production systems’ (Nazar & Pillai, 2015, IJPR, 53:19, 5931-5947). Specifically, the mixed-integer quadratic model, the bit-wise mutation algorithm and the bi-objective problem to optimise both product rate variation and makespan. The conclusion of the discussion is that the three alleged contributions are not valid or are outperformed by those presented in some previously published papers.
