The distributed job shop scheduling problem (DJSP) is a typical representative of the DSP. It consists of two subproblems, assigning jobs to factories and determining the operation sequence on machines. Some benchmark instances have been proposed to test the performance of the DJSP approach, but most instances have not found the optimal solution. In this paper, an iterated greedy algorithm integrating job insertion (IGJI) is proposed to solve the DJSP. Firstly, a job insertion strategy based on idle time (JIIT) is designed for the insertion of a job into a factory. Secondly, JIIT is used in the reconstruction phase of IGJI, while three destruction-reconstruction methods are designed to balance the makespan among factories. Finally, tabu search is adopted in the local search phase of IGJI to improve the solution quality further. The performance of IGJI is tested on 240 benchmark instances, and the experimental results show that the solution quality of IGJI outperforms the other four state-of-the-art algorithms. In particular, IGJI has found 231 new solutions for these benchmark instances.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16227,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing Systems","volume":"77 ","pages":"Pages 746-763"},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142554250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Particularly in scenarios involving multi-scale and multi-physics coupling, complex systems lack adequate fine-grained decomposition (FGD) methods. This results in cumbersome information exchange and consistency maintenance between models of different granularities. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a method for multi-level decomposition of complex twin models. This method constructs a FGD model for DTs by integrating three key correlation mechanisms between components: semantic association, dynamic association, and topological association. The decomposed model achieves reasonable simplification and abstraction while maintaining the accuracy of the complex system, thereby balancing computational efficiency and simulation precision.

Addressing this, we introduce a novel approach leveraging Asset Administration Shell (AAS) and Large Language Models (LLMs) for creating interoperable information models that incorporate semantic contextual information to enhance the interoperability of data integration in the quality control process. AAS, initiated by German industry stakeholders, shows a significant advancement in information modeling, blending ontology and digital twin concepts for the virtual representation of assets. In this work, we develop a systematic, use-case-driven methodology for AAS-based information modeling. This methodology guides the design and implementation of AAS models, ensuring model properties are presented in a unified structure and reference external standardized vocabularies to maintain consistency across different systems. To automate this referencing process, we propose a novel LLM-based algorithm to semantically search model properties within a standardized vocabulary repository. This algorithm significantly reduces manual intervention in model development. A case study in the injection molding domain demonstrates the practical application of our approach, showcasing the integration and linking of product quality and machine process data with the help of the developed AAS models.

Given the research highlights on platform-based manufacturing service collaboration (MSC) offering high-quality service solutions, efficient service scheduling strategies are urgently needed to maximize overall utility amidst great computational complexity and unpredictable task arrivals. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel distributed online task dispatch and service scheduling (DOTDSS) strategy in platform-aggregated MSC. What sets our method apart is its goal to optimize a long-term average utility performance with considering queuing dynamics of manufacturing services in multi-task processing, thereby maintaining sustainable platform operations. Firstly, we jointly consider task dispatch and service scheduling decisions into the formulation of a quality-of-service aware (QoS) stochastics optimization problem. The newly constructed logarithmic utility function effectively strikes a trade-off between the throughput and capacity utilization of manufacturing services with diverse capabilities. By incorporating the goal of reducing queue lengths, we then transform the optimization problem into a form with less computational complexity and guaranteed optimality using Lyapunov optimization. We further propose a DOTDSS strategy that relies solely on the current system state and queue information to generate scalable MSC solutions. It does not need to predict task arrival statistics in advance, and it exhibits great adaptability to uncertainties in task arrivals and service availabilities. Finally, numerical results based on simulation data and real workload traces demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.
