Planning and Scheduling for Dispersed and Collaborative Productive System
Abstract
The advances of production technologies reflect a worldwide trend for sustainability and rational use of resources. As a consequence, some movements for industry reorganization can be observed in geographically dispersed systems with new productive systems (PSs) configurations. These PSs work with small and medium size production lots, product families with increasing variety, and hard delivery date. In this context, concepts of dispersed and collaborative productive systems (DCPSs), with new requirements for production scheduling are expected to be properly explored for improvement of PSs performance. Therefore, we here consider that productive activities can be treated as services and the SOA (service-oriented architecture) approach can be adopted for the integration of the DCPS. Then, a planning service based on time windows and a scheduling service that uses the APS (advanced planning and scheduling) heuristics is proposed to assure the expected performance of the DCPS.
