Abstract
We consider the scheduling of a cordset manufacturing process through several operations. The department is a semi-open job shop. The first and last operations are defined, but the remaining operations can be s equenced in a semi-flexible manner. We present a mixed-integer program ming formulation of this problem. Heuristic algorithms are presented f or solving this problem.
