Contemporary manufacturing must prioritise the sustainability of its manufacturing processes
and systems. Zero Defect Manufacturing (ZDM) focusses on minimising waste of any kind …

Traditional maintenance approaches often result in either premature replacement of
machine parts or downtime in production lines due to malfunctions. Consequently, these …

To optimise production planning, maintenance strategies, and quality control in imperfect
manufacturing systems, most existing works set the buffer stocking time at the cycle start …

In the era of modern manufacturing, automated inspection systems can facilitate online
product quality assessment, generating data that can be used not only in a process control …

Integrated production and maintenance planning optimizes efficiency and productivity by
coordinating schedules. Investigating this planning can improve operational efficiency …

This paper develops an optimal control policy for unreliable manufacturing systems evolving
in a stochastic and dynamic environment and producing perishable products with limited …

In the industrial context, the smooth running of production requires the proper functioning of
the machines as well as the quality of the products manufactured. In practice, production …

This paper proposed a joint production control, preventive maintenance, and inspection
policy for manufacturing systems prone to failures, quality degradation and quality …

As one of the critical output parameters in the machining process, surface roughness quality
must be constantly monitored, including predictions. Many scholars have researched …

Given the flexible and configurable characteristics of smart manufacturing systems with a
