The design of cellular manufacturing system (CMS) involves many structural and operational
issues. One of the important CMS design steps is the formation of part families and machine …

In this paper, a new mathematical model in cellular manufacturing systems (CMSs) has
been presented. In order to increase the performance of manufacturing system, the …

This chapter focuses on the p-median problem (PMP) and its properties. We consider a
pseudo-Boolean formulation of the PMP, demonstrate its advantages and derive the most …
