ResumoComputers make accesible large amounts of information to the different levels of manufacturing organizations. However, this information can be of limited use if adequate decision making methodology is not applied. Very often, decisions made on the factory floor have a substantial impact on the performance of the entire manufacturing system. Process planning and scheduling are two activities that influence significantly these decisions. The common aspect of these activities is the assignment of various factory resources to the production tasks. The method presented in this paper seeks to use this commonality to integrate process planning and scheduling.
