Planning and operational management of production using the methods of the theory of schedules

Approaches to the management of discrete production systems are considered. For the planning and management of systems, it is suggested to use models and methods of scheduling theory. To evaluate the quality of the work plan, it is suggested to use the duration of the production cycle. A method for determining the loading of equipment is indicated. Recommendations are given on the construction of optimal production schedules.

Key words. Conveyor task, schedule, equipment loading, simulation of production process.

Model of transformation of transport and logistics system in the management of railway assets

In the article, based on the analysis of modern literature in the field of neo-cybernetics and management of the life cycle of systems, requirements are developed for a system model for the transformation of the transport and logistics system (TLS). Integration of the TLS life cycle processes is a key challenge for improving the efficiency of the transport infrastructure, including asset management in rail transport. The authors developed and promoted the system 4D-model, providing the transformation from analog to adaptive-digital control systems.
