OPIS: An Opportunistic Factory Scheduling System
Conference Paper, Proceedings of 3rd International Conference on Industrial and Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems (IAE/AIE '90), pp. 268 - 274, June, 1990
Abstract
In this paper, we describe a knowledge-based system for factory scheduling that dynamically focuses its decision-making according to characteristics of current solution constraints. Both problem decomposition and subproblem solution rely on knowledge of the time and resource capacity constraints that are imposed by the current factory state and the scheduling decisions that have already been made. The architecture of the system derives from standard blackboard style architectures and similarly assumes an organization comprised of a number of knowledge sources that extend, revise and analyze the global factory schedule.
