主 题:TIME-WINDOW CONSTRAINTS POLYNOMIAL ALGORITHM SINGLE-HOIST LINE
摘 要:Hoist scheduling is a typical problem in the operation of electroplating systems. The cyclic scheduling policy is widely used in these systems in industry. Research on hoist scheduling has focused on the cyclic problem to minimize the cycle length. Most previous studies consider the single-hoist case. In practice, however, more than one hoist is often used in an electroplating line. This paper addresses the two-hoist, no-wait cyclic scheduling problem, in which the tank-processing times are constants and, upon completion of processing in a tank, the parts have to be moved to the next tank immediately. Based on the analysis of the problem properties, a polynomial algorithm is developed to obtain an optimal schedule. This algorithm first identifies a set of thresholds, which are special values of the cycle length, so that the feasibility property may change only at these thresholds. Feasibility checking is then carried out on each individual threshold in ascending order. The first feasible threshold found will be the optimal cycle length, and the corresponding feasible schedule is an optimal hoist schedule.
