Buffer Allocation via Bottleneck-Based Variable Neighborhood Search

Buffer Allocation via Bottleneck-Based Variable Neighborhood Search

This study addresses the challenging problem of efficient buffer allocation in production lines. Suitable locations for buffer allocation are determined to satisfy the desired throughput, while a suitable balance between solution quality and computation time is achieved. A throughput calculation app...
