Zusammenfassung:Provides a comprehensive review of various modelling approaches related to Just-in-Time (JIT) manufacturing. JIT is essentially a philosophy for reducing lead time as well as excessive work-in-progress inventories. Based on this concept a number of techniques have been developed for the design, planning, scheduling and control of JIT manufacturing systems. Reports on a comparative study of these approaches for JIT manufacturing along with the conventional manufacturing approaches and alternative systems for JIT manufacture. Explores future research areas.
