Priority dispatching rules in an assembly shop

Abstract

This paper reports the results of a job shop computer simulation study in which jobs were made up of several parts, and where operations on the different parts can be going on at the same time in different machining centres. Priority rules are evaluated in terms of average job flow time, and have been chosen mainly for their ability to coordinate the completion time of the various job parts. A rule based on the minimum remaining job time has been found to produce the best results. The paper also attempts to classify the various priority rules in terms of their operational significance.
