摘要

The present study attempts to synchronize the scheduling problem with determining the advanced available-to-promise (AATP) in a flowshop system to enhance supplier profitability and service level. In the proposed model the AATP, scheduling and graph theory concept have been combined to find the optimum resource allocation and enable accurate estimations of machines scheduling, production costs and delivery dates. To find the near optimum solutions for the large size problems a genetic algorithm is developed, first the orders are ranked based on their scores which are estimated then the optimum cost is calculated by balancing profitability and constraints such as the availability of the machines or the available material in each workstation. Some computer simulated experiments are provided to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm.
