Abstract

Summary We allocate a given production workload between L production lines producing P products with a subsequent buffer of limited capacity by modeling the problem as a classical transportation problem. The model is embedded in a Dynamic Programming approach that finds a cost-optimal solution exploiting the given exibility of an automotive plant with respect to production capacity, production volume and staff. Preliminary computational results show that our approach solves real-world instances within some hours.
