Contents: A great many manufacturing facilities can be described as closed job shops which process multiple items through multiple work centers for stock or for assembly. The performance of these shops is strongly dependent on the batching policies employed for work in the shop. In particular, waiting time in queue and total manufacturing lead time for batches are functions of lotsizes. In turn these affect work-in-process costs, safety stock requirements, schedule performance and part coordination for assembly. The relationship between lot-sizing and shop performance is represented using a queueing network model which is then embedded in an optimization routine that searches for optimal lot sizes.
