Abstract
In mixed-model assembly scheduling with a single workstation, there is a ne w sequencing method [time-based goal chasing method (TBGC)] in consideratio n of the different assembly times between jobs. In this paper, we propose a new objective function in expanding the TBGC. Furthermore, we propose some heuristic methods to minimize the objective function. And through numerica l experiments, we show the effectiveness of our proposal. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
