“…Also, Wu et al 25 proposed a simulation-based control policy that minimizes work-in-process and rework rate for the problem in which a job is reworked if the queue time of the job between two stages exceeds a limit.

This study addresses multi-stage hybrid flow shop scheduling in which a job is reworked if the queue time between two arbitrary stages exceeds an upper limit. The problem is to determine the allocations of jobs to machines at each stage and the start times of jobs and rework setups/operations when incurred. A mixed integer programming model is proposed for each of the makespan and the total tardiness measures. Then, because the problem is NP-hard, a scheduling mechanism is proposed that consists of three phases: (a) filtering the jobs to be delayed; (b) searching the jobs to be reworked; and (c) dispatching non-delayed and delayed jobs sequentially. Simulation results show that the mechanism proposed in this study outperforms the conventional dispatching approach in the high rework setup time case for the makespan problem and low/high setup time cases for the tardiness problem. The best priority rules of the mechanism under each of the measures are also reported.

“…Representative results of analytical methods can be found in the paper by Wang, Huang, and Li [ 29 ], which investigated transient throughput properties of flexible systems with the finite buffer and Bernoulli machine. Further research includes a geometric serial line [ 30 ], assembly systems [ 31 ], a serial Bernoulli production line [ 32 , 33 , 34 ], and Bernoulli production systems with rework processes [ 35 , 36 ]. In contrast to computer simulation, analytical methods can inherently overcome the above drawbacks and disclose fundamentally mathematical coupling between performance measures and system parameters.…”

Production system modeling (PSM) for quality propagation involves mapping the principles between components and systems. While most existing studies focus on the steady-state analysis, the transient quality analysis remains largely unexplored. It is of significance to fully understand quality propagation, especially during transients, to shorten product changeover time, decrease quality loss, and improve quality. In this paper, a novel analytical PSM approach is established based on the Markov model, to explore product quality propagation for transient analysis of serial multi-stage production systems. The cascade property for quality propagation among correlated sequential stages was investigated, taking into account both the status of the current stage and the quality of the outputs from upstream stages. Closed-form formulae to evaluate transient quality performances of multi-stage systems were formulated, including the dynamics of system quality, settling time, and quality loss. An iterative procedure utilizing the aggregation technique is presented to approximate transient quality performance with computational efficiency and high accuracy. Moreover, system theoretic properties of quality measures were analyzed and the quality bottleneck identification method was investigated. In the case study, the modeling error was 0.36% and the calculation could clearly track system dynamics; quality bottleneck was identified to decrease the quality loss and facilitate continuous improvement. The experimental results illustrate the applicability of the proposed PSM approach.
