Advanced Queuing Theory Analysis Scheduling and Optimization Algorithms Assembly Line Balancing Optimization

Abstract

In this paper we consider the problems faced by an industrial planner who is responsible for the design of real-life asynchronous production lines under stochastic conditions that may be due to breakdowns or random processing times. Based on real-life system data, it is shown that a number of available algorithms for the performance evaluation of a given system configuration as well as an algorithm for determining the optimum buffer configuration can be successfully applied in industrial practice.
