Abstract
According to one embodiment, a method of managing a manufacturing line is provided. The method of managing a manufacturing line includes determining a variation characteristic of a load factor of the manufacturing line that includes multiple resources. The method of managing a manufacturing line includes determining a variation characteristic of a load factor of each of the multiple resources. The method of managing a manufacturing line includes identifying the resource that is to be improved out of the multiple resources in response to the variation characteristic of the load factor of the manufacturing line and the variation characteristic of the load factor of each of the resources.
Claims20
A method of managing a manufacturing line, the method comprising:
- determining a variation characteristic of a load factor of the manufacturing line that includes multiple resources;
- determining a variation characteristic of a load factor of each of the multiple resources;
- and
- identifying the resource that is to be improved out of the multiple resources in response to the variation characteristic of the load factor of the manufacturing line and the variation characteristic of the load factor of the resource.
A method of managing a manufacturing line, the method comprising:
- identifying a lot to which a level of a first priority relating to quality is assigned and a lot to which a level of a second priority relating to a deadline for delivery is assigned out of multiple lots that can be processed by a resource in the manufacturing line including multiple resources;
- and
- determining, in response to a result of the identified lots, the lot that is to be preferentially processed by the resource out of the multiple lots.
A method of managing a manufacturing line, the method comprising
- determining waiting time of a lot input to a first resource of a batch-fed type in the manufacturing line including multiple resources by applying Little's Law in consideration of a charge number of the first resource.
