Search Decision Rule The search decision rule methodology overcomes some
of the limitations of the linear cost assumptions of linear
programming. The search decision rule allows the user
to state cost data inputs in very general terms. It requires
that a computer program be constructed that will
unambiguously evaluate any production plans cost. It
then searches among alternative plans for the one with
the minimum cost. However, unlike linear programming,
there is no assurance of optimality.
Functional Objective Search Approach The functional objective search (FOS) system is
a computerized aggregate planning system that
incorporates a broad range of actual planning
conditions. It is capable of realistic, low-cost
operating schedules that provide options for
attaining different planning goals.
Functional Objective Search Approach The system works by comparing the planning
load with available capacity. After management
has chosen its desired actions and associated
planning objectives for specific load conditions,
the system weights each planning goal to reflect
the functional emphasis behind its achievement
at a certain load conditions. The computer then
uses a computer search to output a plan that
minimizes costs and meets delivery dead lines.
