Lot streaming and batch scheduling: splitting and grouping jobs to improve production efficiency
… several stages as quickly as possible, whereas batch scheduling refers to the process of grouping jobs to improve the use of resources and customer satisfaction. We use a network representation and critical path approach to analyse the lot streaming problem of finding optimal sublot sizes and a …

Operations management in a large online retailer : inventory, scheduling and picking
… including multiple items. Pickers pick items in batches, and partially completed orders take up space on a sorting area called the wall. This gives rise to a fundamental tradeoff between picking efficiency and sorting efficiency. We propose a batch scheduling model, generalizing existing models …

Optimal scheduling of an integrated batch and continuous process system
… posed involving the determination of the optimal scheduling and sequencing of a batch process system. The plant incorporates both batch and continuous units and is further complicated by the existence of a nonlinear relationship between the processing rate and the lot size in the continuous plant. …

Comparison of Scheduling Algorithms for a Multi-Product Batch-Chemical Plant with a Generalized Serial Network
… development of better algorithms, theoretical scheduling methodologies developed for batch-chemical production are seldom applied in industry (Musier & Evans 1989 and Grossmann et al. 1992). Scheduling decisions may have significant impact on overall company profitability by defining how …
