Resumo:A challenge is emerging in the design of scheduling support systems and facility layout planning, both for manufacturing environments where dynamic adaptation and optimization become increasingly important on the efficiency and productivity. Focusing on the interactions between these two problems, this work combines two paradigms in sequential manner, optimization techniques and multi-agent systems, to better reflect practical manufacturing scenarios. This approach, in addition to significantly improve the quality of the solutions, enables fast reaction to condition changes. In such stochastic and very volatile environments, the manufacturing industries, the fast rescheduling, or planning, are crucial to maintain the system in operation. The proposed architecture was codified in MatLab and NetLogo and applied to a real-world job shop case study. The experimental results achieved optimized solutions, as well as in the responsiveness to achieve dynamic results for disruptions and simultaneously layout optimization
