Material type: materialTypeLabelBookSeries: Springer Optimization and Its Applications: 60Publisher: New York, NY : Springer New York : 2012.Description: XII, 308 p. online resource.ISBN: 9781461411239.Subject(s): Mathematics | Algorithms | Mathematical optimization | Mathematics | Operations Research, Management Science | Mathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematics | Optimization | AlgorithmsDDC classification: 519.6 Online resources: Click here to access online In: Springer eBooksSummary: Whether different types of costs are to be reduced, benefits to be maximized or scarce resources to be managed, scheduling theory provides intelligent methods for practitioners and scientists. The just-in-time (JIT) production philosophy has enriched the classical scheduling theory with models that consider characteristics such as inventory costs, set-up times, lot sizing, or maintenance. This edited volume considers the specifics of just-in-time systems. It provides knowledge and insights on recent advances in scheduling theory where just-in-time aspects are considered. Contributions on models, theory, algorithms, and applications, that bring the theory up-to-date on the state-of-the-art of JIT systems are presented. Professionals, researchers and graduate students will find this book useful.
