摘要
In the competitive global marketplace,production scheduling plays a vital role in planning in manufacturing.Scheduling deals directly with the time to output products quickly and with a low production cost.This research examines case study of a Radio-Frequency Identification labeling department at Avery Dennison.The main objective of the company is to have a method that allows for the sequencing and scheduling of a set of jobs so it can be completed on or before the customer’s due date to minimize the number of late orders.This study analyzes the flexible flow shop scheduling problem with a sequence dependent setup by modifying the processing time and setup time to minimize the makespan on multiple machines.Based on the defined mathematical model,this study includes an alternative approach and application of heuristic algorithm with the input being big data.Both optimization programs are used in this study and compared to determine which method can better solve the company’s problems.The proposed algorithm is able to improve machine utilization with large-scale problems.
