Understanding this may provide important insights into the long-term competitiveness of products and companies. There are various complexities to ...
    • The Interplay between Learning Effect and Order Acceptance in Production Planning 

      Ying, Kuo-Ching; Pourhejazy, Pourya; Zhou, Wei-Jie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-07-15)
      Learning takes time and hence its effects should be considered in short-term production planning (i.e., scheduling). This is especially true when human involvement is high and the shop floor experiences changes in workflow, workforce, or technology. The Single-Machine Scheduling Problem (SMSP) with the learning effect is considered to explore this interplay. The study first proves that the shortest ...
