Invited keynote paper for a special sessionInternational audienceA collection of intersecting blocks of operations is executed successively and all operations of each block are executed in parallel. The intensities of execution of operations to be defined remain invariable for all blocks that include these operations. Cost and time expenses for execution of operations depend on their volumes and intensities. Additional expenses for execution of operation block are proportional to the duration of this block. The problem is to define the intensities of all operations minimizing the total cost under constraint on the total collection duration. The methods for two particular cases of the problem are proposed

“…The Branch and Bound algorithm is one of the heuristic techniques which has the longest history of application in the line balancing problem [14][15][16]. Other heuristic techniques, such as simulated annealing [17,18], tabu search [19], and graphical method [20], have also been applied more recently. The rise of artificial intelligent (AI) computational techniques in early 1990s has proved its value in line balancing control.…”

In apparel manufacturing, it is difficult to achieve line balance because the production rate of each workstation is different. This difficulty is particularly prominent in the labourintensive assembly process. The development of a line balancing technique using genetic algorithms is thus proposed for optimising the assignment of operators in an assembly line. The impact of a different level of skill inventory SI n on the assembly makespan is also investigated in order to find out the optimal number of task skills an operator should possess in the apparel assembly process. Experimental results will be discussed to demonstrate the performance of the proposed genetic optimisation approach.

“…In Dolgui et al (2004), Belmokhtar et al (2004), Dolgui et al (2006a) the blocks are known and are executed in parallel. All these papers concern the case of a single product, for which three solving approaches have been proposed: a constrained shortest path; mixed integer programming (MIP); heuristics.…”
