The production scheduling problem allocates limited resources to tasks over time and
determines the sequence of operations so that the constraints of the system are met and the …

The optimal resources allocation to tasks was the primary objective of the research dealing
with scheduling problems. These problems are characterized by their complexity, known as …

Timed Petri nets (TPNs) have been widely used for modeling discrete-event systems of
diverse manufacturing and service industries. In this article, we introduce a reachability tree …

A common simplifying assumption used in the literature is to minimise average Work In
Process (WIP), while achieving maximum production rate, which does not consider the fact …

Petri nets which are used for modeling and analyzing complex systems that can be
characterized as synchronous, parallel, simultaneous, distributed, resource sharing …

This paper deals with the cyclic scheduling of flexible job-shop with time window constraints
and resource capacity constraints. For time window constraints, the duration for processing …

Petri nets (PNs) are powerful tools for modeling and analysis of discrete event dynamic
systems. The graphical nature and mathematical foundation make Petri net based methods …

This thesis focuses on the trains routing and scheduling problem faced by railway station
managers. The objective is to develop a decision model for railway station managers to …

In this paper, we focus on the cyclic scheduling problem. This kind of schedule is well fitted
to medium and large production demand, since it allows to avoid the scheduling of the …

The occurrence of failure in Flexible Manufacturing System can deeply modify its
performances and its availability. In this context, the monitoring of FMS becomes an …
