Design of a heuristic for balancing a multi-stage production flow line by Kays, H. M. E., Karim, A. N. M., Tajudin, M. N. B., Abdesselam, M.

“…But the solution given by the RPW model loses its exactitude due to the presence of the extra-long tasks. In this research a heuristic approach based on RPW is developed through which the problem has been resolved in an efficient and effective manner and hence the proposed heuristic is deemed to be capable of balancing production lines having such extra-long tasks.…”
