In the research on production economics, line balancing is an intensively studied
combinatorial optimisation problem. In our previous comprehensive survey on line …

Purpose Various approaches and algorithms have been proposed since the 1950s to solve
the assembly line (AL) balancing problem. These methods have established an AL …

In this paper, a comprehensive optimization problem is developed for a composite of an
assembly line reconfiguration problem with multiple lines and a capacitated lot-sizing …

This paper examines the balancing of assembly lines with multi-manned stations and a
heterogeneous workforce. Both topics received considerable attention in the literature, but …

Currently, advanced production systems enable fast and flexible capacity planning and
production scheduling connected to the existing enterprise resource planning (ERP) system …

A wide variety of approaches has been proposed since the 50s to solve the assembly line
balancing problem. Almost all of them established an assembly line configuration from the …
