Opis

The subject of the book is to show recent developments and new perspectives of operations research in the area of production planning and control as they were presented on an international conference on this matter. Problems dealt with are general planning and modelling approaches in production, flexible manufacturing systems, production planning and control systems as well as computer integrated manufacturing, scheduling, lot-sizing, inventory control and quality assurance. Mathematical programming, control theory, simulations, genetic algorithms and neural networks are applied as solution techniques.
