Abstract

This paper presents a system to support decision-making of the production manager when scheduling the manufacturing orders. This system is mainly appropriate for small and medium size enterprises with productive systems like batch or job-shop. The manufacturing orders are dynamically scheduled considering namely deadlines and resource allocation. The system combines three modules: pre-scheduling, dynamic scheduling and re-scheduling. Each module applies heuristics to select the best solutions depending on the scheduling policies defined by the production manager
