Types of Short-Term
Scheduling
As previously mentioned, there are two main types of
Short-Term Planning used to optimise the overall performance of the production line. The
two main types are as follows:
1. Work Centres Loading
2. Job Sequencing
Figure2 The following diagram is the
hierarchy structure of the two-type scheduling.
As seen from the diagram above, the two main types of Short-Term
Scheduling are subdivided into four different techniques. And the four techniques adopted
here are the most general methods.
The following section is the introduction of the two techniques-Gantt Chart and
Input-Output Control- adopted in work centres loading.
