The present study introduces a trade-off framework to evaluate assembly concepts to make informed decisions for aircraft wing structures. This includes (1) the design of the assembly concepts and the estimation of the probability of achieving specifi...

A Comparison of Centralised and Decentralised Scheduling Methods Using a Simple Benchmark System (2018)
Journal Article
Tochev, E., Pfifer, H., & Ratchev, S. (2018). A Comparison of Centralised and Decentralised Scheduling Methods Using a Simple Benchmark System. IFAC papers online, 51(11), 1287-1292. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ifacol.2018.08.355

This paper is intended to provide a comparison of a centralised scheduling system, a simple Multi-Agent System (MAS), and a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) formulation. The systems are tested on a simulation of a small scale flexible job shop... Read More about A Comparison of Centralised and Decentralised Scheduling Methods Using a Simple Benchmark System.
