Abstract

Production Switching Heuristics (PSH) have been suggested as realistic, practical alternatives to more sophisticated aggregate planning and scheduling models. A modified, two-level heuristic is presented and its properties investigated by use of the classical paint factory data (Linear Decision Rule). Even under relatively extreme circumstances, its cost performance is promising when compared with the LDR, LP and the original PSH.
