In this paper, we describe an integer programming algorithm for assigning tasks on an assembly line to work stations in such a way that the number of work stations is minimal for the rate of ...

In this survey paper we discuss the development of the simple assembly line balancing problem (SALBP); modifications and generalizations over time; present alternate 0-1 programming formulations and a ...

Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP): A mathematical optimisation method that involves both integer and continuous variables, used to model complex decision-making scenarios in manufacturing.
