RESUMO

This dissertation studies the problem of scheduling operations in manufacturing job shop environments where items with bill of materials are made of many fabricated and assembled components. Such systems are known as assembly shops. The general job shop scheduling problem, which no restrictions exist neither for the number of operations to be scheduled nor for the number of machines to be allocated, is considered at the present date intractable from the computational point of view, whatever the performance criterion used, due to the combinatorial explosion inherent to the scheduling process. It means that there is not an efficient computational method that solves globally real size instances of the problem within a satisfactory period of time. Due to this fact, in the last three decades several approximated and heuristic methods were created and evaluated for the problem. This research proposes and evaluate a new heuristic method which is based on the assumption that the improvement in operations synchronization at the assembly stations brings forth better achievement of due dates. The method implements two scheduling approaches: a backward approach satisfying due date completely and a forward approach satisfying capacity restriction completely. The two approaches work iteratively within two different simulation models of the production system one deterministic e other probabilistic in searching for operations synchronization improvement and due date achievement. The experimental results have shown the new method was better than the single-pass methods (rules) on average and as good as the better single-pass method (rule) tested.
