A simulation-based study of scheduling policies to improve the factory performance
This project aims to study the effects of open-loop and closed loop job release policies and dispatching rules in an electrical appliance company in Singapore. While maintaining the throughput at the required level with high utilization rate, the project aims to reduce the work-in-process inventory...
