Abstract
In this paper, two types of similarity coefficients are compared: (1) the Jaccard's coefficient and (2) the production volume based coeffici ent. Each is used to form a cellular manufacturing system whose perfor mance will be used as a measure of effectiveness of the similarity coe fficient. The sum of intercellular and intracellular material handling costs is used as a criterion for performance evaluation.
