Considering factors such as the delivery time, varietal compatibility between different products, production capacity of variety per hour, minimum or maximum batch size, and transfer time, we propose an available production capacity network with varietal compatibility and virtual occupancy for enhancing production plan implementation and quick adjustment in the case of dynamic production changes. Here available means the remaining production capacity after virtual occupancy.To quickly build an available production capacity network and increase the speed of algorithm solving, constraint selection and cutting methods with order priority were used for model solving. Finally, the genetic algorithm improved with local search was used to optimize the proposed production plan and significantly reduce the order delay rate. The validity of the proposed model and algorithm was numerically verified by simulating actual production practices. The simulation results demonstrate that the model and improved algorithm result in an effective production plan.展开更多

All kinds of financial service satisfaction indexes are analyzed and tested empirically in Shanghai and other major emerging financial centers, and it is concluded that emerging financial centers are in a disadvantage position of the financial service level as a whole in comparison with the mature international financial centers, while Shanghai is demanded to make an improvement in the credibility of financial services and the professional knowledge reserve of service personnel in comparison with other emerging financial centers.展开更多
