Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores a dynamic control problem arising in determining input and sequencing decisions in a two-station multiclass queueing network. The author's solution to this problem is based on insights gleaned from Brownian network theory, which involves approximating a multiclass queueing network with a stochastic system model under balanced heavy loading conditions. In the context of the book's broader industrial engineering context, this scheduling problem is relevant to manufacturing environments where the objective is to optimally manage the flow of jobs through a network of machines. The author's proposed strategy, which prioritizes sequencing based on an index combining customer class, service times, and server utilizations, is shown to minimize average cycle time and maximize throughput. This book significantly contributes to the existing body of knowledge on scheduling in queueing networks, particularly in heavy traffic conditions. Its findings have practical implications for production planning in various industries, including manufacturing, where minimizing cycle time and maximizing throughput are crucial for efficiency and profitability.
