Abstract
Few researches in scheduling literature have considered setup and maintenance
concurrently. This thesis analyzes sequence-dependent setup scheduling problem
with non-resumable case of maintenance consideration to minimize makespan
(maximizing utilization) on a single machine. Some parts of machine time are
required for setup and maintenance activity, and in this study it is assumed that
these two can be performed simultaneously. The analysis is divided into three
parts, based on its job arrival and maintenance period assumption. Algorithms
with dynamic job arrival assumption are tested on historical data of an actual
semiconductor testing facility system. It is observed that the proposed algorithms
are able to improve machine productive utilization by up to ~6% and average
WIP by up to --40%.
