Abstract
In this paper, we propose a neuro-genetic decision support system coupled with simulation
to design a job shop manufacturing system by achieving predetermined values of targeted
performance measures such as flow time, number of tardy jobs, total tardiness and machine
utilization at each work center. When a manufacturing system is designed, the management
has to make decisions on the availability of resources or capacity, in our setting, the number
of identical machines in each work station and the dispatching rule to be utilized in
the shop floor to achieve performance values desired. Four different priority rules are used
as Earliest due date (EDD), Shortest Processing Time (SPT), Critical ratio (CR) and First
Come First Serve (FCFS). In reaching the final decision, design alternatives obtained from
the proposed system are evaluated in terms of performance measures. An illustrative example
is provided to explain the procedure.
