Enhancing Scheduling Performance for a Wafer Fabrication Factory : The Biobjective Slack-Diversifying Nonlinear Fluctuation-Smoothing Rule

الملخص EN

A biobjective slack-diversifying nonlinear fluctuation-smoothing rule (biSDNFS) is proposed in the present work to improve the scheduling performance of a wafer fabrication factory.

This rule was derived from a one-factor bi-objective nonlinear fluctuation-smoothing rule (1f-biNFS) by dynamically maximizing the standard deviation of the slack, which has been shown to benefit scheduling performance by several previous studies.

The efficacy of the biSDNFS was validated with a simulated case; evidence was found to support its effectiveness.

We also suggested several directions in which it can be exploited in the future.
