Abstract
A decision aid for scheduling production in glass fiber manufacturing industry is described. The methodology combines a linear programming ( LP) optimization model with a heuristic model. The LP model determines production goals; the heuristic model then uses the LP output to inco rporate system-specific constraints in developing processing sequences .
