A Proposal of Scheduling Method Based on the Decision Criteria of Schedule Planners Considering Productivity and Electric Power Consumption

Abstract

In recent years, electric power consumption and costs have become important evaluation indicators as well as productivity in the manufacturing industry due to efforts for SDGs and an increase in electricity charges. In addition, the globalization of the manufacturing industry requires faster decision-making and faster implementation of measures to gain customers. Along with this, production schedules that simultaneously consider indicators related to productivity and electricity are required, and it is necessary to develop a scheduling method that can quickly reflect the multiple requirements. In this paper, we propose the scheduling method using the satisficing trade-off method that satisfies the requests of the schedule planners for productivity and electric power costs quickly, and evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method by computer experiments.
