Optimal Buffer Allocation in Flexible Manufacturing Systems Using Genetic Algorithm and Simulation
Over the past few decades, buffer allocation problems have been investigated extensively. It is widely known that buffers play important roles in the manufacturing system, including preparing disruption and improving efficiency. However, due to a physical limit for buffer space and the related cost...
