Traditionally process planning, scheduling and
due-date assignment functions are applied sequentially and separately. Since
these three functions effect each other and if we don’t integrate then they
will become poor input for downstream and global performance will be poor. In
these competitive era we have to be competitive also. Integrating these
functions will improve global performance. In this study we investigated the
benefit of integration. We tested different integration level. First we looked
at unintegrated results and later we integrated due-date assignment with
process planning and finally we integrated these two functions with ATC
(Apparent Tardiness Cost) Dispatching. In this study we observed that as
integration level increases the solution becomes better. Integrating due-date
assignment with process planning improves global performance and if we
integrate ATC dispatching with these two functions then we get the best
performance. In addition to integration level we also compared benefit of
search techniques, especially genetic (directed) search. We compared ordinary
solutions (initial populations) with results of random search and genetic
search (after some certain number of iterations). We tested three shop floors
which are small, medium and large shop floor. We observed that search is always
better than ordinary solutions and genetic search outperformed random
(undirected) search. At this study every customer has weight and they are
scheduled by considering weights to improve performance value.
