Abstract

In the paper, “Assembly-Line Balancing by Linear Programming,” that appeared in O perations R esearch 8 , 385--389 (1960), E. H. Bowman presented two linear program formulations for the assembly-line balancing problem. These two formulations are referred to as the First Linear Program and the Second Linear Program, respectively. The following are comments about, and a reformulation of, the First Linear Program.
