There have been a huge volume of researches concerning dispatching rules in job shop environments. Strangely, studies all but one pay no attention to multiple identical jobs due to the existence of production orders each of which calls for a fixed quantity, called an order size, of a specific part. Jobs arrive in the form of production orders in most, if not all, job shop type flexible manufacturing systems. This paper presents simple processing-time-based dispatching rules, and shows experimentally based on simulation that the rules with order-size considerations perform consistently well for tardiness and utilization measures. Several alternative strategies for rule specifications are examined.
