I am following the thesis of Martin Land (very good work), but I can not find references that easily describe the ways to implement WLC. I'm trying to do some simulations with this system.
Thanks!!
Please check my WEB Site - ACADZ, inc. I have developed simulation models using Icons for semiconductor manufacturing and other manufacturing and have published over 20 Research Papers. The two main areas are "Minimum Inventory Variability Scheduling Policies (MIVP)" and "Automated Material Handling System Simulation (AMHS)". Please send me an email at [email protected] and I will forward you some research papers.
Have you try the following papers:
"Workload Control: Successful implementation taking a contigency-based view of production planning and control", Hendry, L; Huang, Y and Stevenson, M; International Journal of Operations & Production Management 33, 1;
"MAPP - A web-based decision support sustem for the mould industry", Silva, C, Roque, L, Almeida, A, Decision Support Systems, 42 (2006);
You can also eventually find some intersting insights at "http://www.lums.lancs.ac.uk/workload-control/"
Finally, If I'm not wrong, I think Liu and Chen, from Guangdong University of technology, have made a few things with WLC in the mould industry but I'm not sure what have been published by them.
Hope this can help.
