A Study of Labor Allocation Strategies in Cellular Manufacturing
通过模拟实验研究单元制造中劳动力分配策略，分析不同产品路线和调度政策的影响，为管理者选择合适策略提供参考。
Current research studies in cellular manufacturing have considered environments constrained only by the machine resource, when in fact the flexibility of manufacturing cells is derived mainly from its allocation of the labor resource. This research specifically examines the labor resource in cellular manufacturing, also known as group technology (GT), through a series of simulation experiments on a hypothetical GT shop and recommends conditions under which different labor allocation strategies may be appropriate. The effects of various product routings and scheduling policies on labor allocation are also examined.
