Simulations to explore alternative sequencing rules

Robert G. Brown

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1968, vol. 15, issue 2, 281-286

Abstract: A flexible simulation system has been designed to permit investigation of sequencing rules in a large job shop, with continual input of new work. The objective is to understand what happens rather than to find optimum rules, with many conflicting measures of effectiveness: work in process, finished goods investment, delays, machine and labor utilization, and effort to implement. A few problem areas have been explored.
