APPLICATION OF LINEAR PROGRAMMING TO PRODUCTION SCHEDULING IN FUNTUA TEXTILE COMPANY LIMITED
ABSTRAC T
This work was primarily undertaken to find
out the applicability of linear programming technique to production scheduling in Nigerian
manufacturing industry.
The work is divided into five chapters.
Chapter one dealt with introducing the subject of
complexity in decision making due to the geometrical
development in organisational activities. It also
introduced the discipline ‘Operations Research’
and of its tools – linear programming. The Chapter
further highlighted the objectives,, of methodology
of research and some percieved limitations of
the study.
The second chapter dealt with an intensive
review of related literature on its application
to production scheduling and at the end came up
with a hypothesis that guided and gave direction
to the study. Chapter three was dedicated to presentation
of the data collected and the choice of an appropriate linear programming model to analyse the
data . The last two chapters dealt with the analysis
of the data, discussion of the results thereto and
suggestions thereupon.
