Master a practical approach to balancing demand and production with a proven scheduling policy. This nonfiction work analyzes how a Brownian-model framework guides release and sequencing decisions in a single‑server, multiclass make‑to‑stock setting. In Dynamic Scheduling of a Multiclass Make‑to‑Stock Queue, the authors adapt advanced theory to a production context, showing how to keep the machine busy while controlling costs across multiple products.
- Learn how weighted finished goods inventory guides when the line should run or pause, and which product classes get priority.
- Discover how a simple, implementable rule can coordinate release decisions with dynamic sequencing to reduce backorder and holding costs.
- See how simulation compares the proposed policy against traditional approaches and what the results imply for real factories.
- Understand the connection between busy workload, bottlenecks, and cost reduction in a multiclass, make‑to‑stock system.
Ideal for readers of operations research, manufacturing management, and supply chain coursework who want concrete methods backed by Brownian‑motion analysis and practical policy guidance.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines a dynamic scheduling problem faced by single-server production facilities operating in a dynamic stochastic environment, such as those that produce according to customer demand rather than producing to fixed schedules. The author considers a multi-class queueing system that can process a variety of job classes. After jobs are processed, they enter a finished goods inventory that services customer demand. The scheduling problem involves determining when to release jobs to the queue and which job class, if any, to serve next. The author develops an effective scheduling policy that minimizes the long-run expected average cost incurred per unit time, accounting for backordering finished goods inventory, holding finished goods inventory, and holding work-in-process inventory.
