“…In this paper, we stay within a reasonable scope and only consider problems that, according to the authors' discretion, are either special cases of the standard problem, or more general cases that are the result of the addition or removal of a limited number of assumptions and/or constraints. For a more in depth review about FMS, the reader is referred to [138], [152], [194] or [17] to cite just a few.…”

The scheduling of flow shops with multiple parallel machines per stage, usually referred to as the Hybrid Flow Shop (HFS), is a complex combinatorial problem encountered in many real world applications. Given its importance and complexity, the HFS problem has been intensively studied. This paper presents a literature review on exact, heuristic and metaheuristic methods that have been proposed for its solution.The paper discusses several variants of the HFS problem, each in turn considering different assumptions, constraints and objective functions. Research opportunities in HFS are also discussed.

“…It is designed to combine the efficiency of an assembly line and the flexibility of a job shop to best suit the batch production of mid-volume and mid-variety of products (Sarin and Chen 1987). FMS scheduling has been extensively investigated over the last two decades and it continues to attract interest from both academia and industry, and much literature has been published (Stecke and Solgerg 1981;Gupta et al 1989;Gupta et al 1991;Rachamadugu and Stecke 1994;Priore et al 2001;Chan et al 2002).…”

This chapter introduces firstly the new developments in production and retail operations. These developments bring new challenges to daily operations and decision-makings because some new decision-making problems and problem features emerge and have to be handled. This chapter then reviews previous studies on decision-making problems in production and retailing, including production planning, production scheduling, assembly line balancing, and sales forecasting. Finally, this chapter reviews commonly used techniques for typical decision-making problems, including production optimization and sales forecasting.

“…The third decision level for most hierarchies deals with real time control and scheduling problems of FMSs, and we are not reviewing research work for that decision level. For a review of real time control and scheduling problems of FMSs refer to Kalkunte et al (1986) and Rachamadugu and Stecke (1987).…”

This review paper describes the state-of-the-art research on flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) design and planning issues. The emphasis is on presenting research results coming out of the current FMS literature that help the FMS manager in setting up a highly efficient manufacturing system. In addition to that, it discusses relevant research contributions after 1986, that were not part of any of the previous survey papers on operations research models for FMSs. Also, applications of combinatorial optimization approaches to FMS planning problems are adequately exposed in the paper.
