Chapter Chapter 6 in Assembly Line Planning and Control, 2014, pp 47-56 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter concerns a plant that dedicates a line to produce a product that has no variation. This is called single model assembly. The planning methods that take place for this type of line are described in the context of an example. The example begins with the work elements, the element times, the predecessor elements, and the corresponding precedence diagram. The shift schedule quantity and shift time are needed to determine the number of operators to have on the line.
