Integrated Approach For Production Planning And Sequencing Decisions In A Single Machine Batch Process

This thesis is motivated by a planning and scheduling decision problem encountered in a multi-product batch operations of a chemical firm in Malaysia. Batch processing means the processing of an integrated, non-divisible unit product such as volume of resin, polymer, or specialty chemical products....
