Although there are different methodologies available to design a layout namely cell formation, PFA with REL Chart, dependency matrix; it is difficult to apply these techniques universally. Each situation presents a typical problem where the existing technologies fail to give satisfactory results. In this paper an attempt has been made to design a mixed layout (partly cellular and partly straight-line). The layout is derived from dependency matrix and dependency network.

Abstract


Although there are different methodologies available to design a layout namely cell formation, PFA with REL Chart, dependency matrix; it is difficult to apply these techniques universally. Each situation presents a typical problem where the existing technologies fail to give satisfactory results. In this paper an attempt has been made to design a mixed layout (partly cellular and partly straight-line). The layout is derived from dependency matrix and dependency network.
