Journal ArticleDOI
A survey of the machine interference problem
Lani Haque,Michael J. Armstrong +1 more
TL;DR: This paper surveys the research published on the machine interference problem, also called the machine repairman problem, in which machines interfere with each other’s service, and discusses the literature along several dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity analysis of machine interference in manufacturing systems
TL;DR: In this article, a class of manufacturing systems is presented in which the machine interference problem plays an important role in production and the optimum number of machines that can be served by a robot is computed.

Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term production scheduling of an automated manufacturing facility
TL;DR: Extensions to the on-line hierarchical scheduling scheme for flexible manufacturing systems of Kimemia and Gershwin are described, including algorithm simplification, substantial reductions of off-line and on- line computation time, and improvement of performance.
Book
The application of GPSS V to discrete system simulation
TL;DR: A more extensive but more dated introduction to GPSS, providing further reference for use of this simulation system than is provided in the Solomon book reviewed above.
Journal ArticleDOI
A model for a textile winding process
TL;DR: The increased efficiency that results from the operative repeatedly trying to repair a stopped machine, rather than leaving it stopped and continuing with his patrol is calculated, and the design implications of this improved strategy are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of manufacturing systems by the Research Queueing Package
TL;DR: The capabilities of RESQ are described and an analysis of several work-in-process (WIP) policies is presented using RESQ models solved by simulation to understand the model elements which are available for representing manufacturing systems.
