Více o knize

Focusing on production control policies, this book delves into pull production systems, offering guidelines for selecting and implementing effective control strategies. It examines well-known policies like Kanban, CONWIP, and base-stock, providing analytical comparisons in multistage serial and assembly processes. Through examples and analytical solutions, it addresses the complexities of comparing these systems, highlighting that no single policy is universally superior. The book also identifies structural parameters that determine the effectiveness of each control scheme, aiding in optimal policy selection based on specific configurations.
