Abstract

This chapter discusses the scheduling of the reusable components’ reprocessing operations after the used products are disassembled and classified. The chapter starts with an introduction about the issue of scheduling disassembly operations and the scheduling in remanufacturing cells encountered at the used products post-disassembly stage. Then, related studies dealing with similar problems are discussed in the background section. Next, the focal problem of this chapter is stated in the problem statement section. A detailed description about the approaches (i.e., the fuzzy logic and the fuzzy MAX-MIN ant systems) can be found in the proposed methodology section. Right after this, an illustrative example is explained in the experimental study section. The potential research directions regarding the main problem considered in this chapter are highlighted in the future trends section. Finally, the conclusion drawn in the last section closes this chapter.
