AI Fundamentals: Constraint-Based Production Scheduling

ENTIRE is excited to introduce the AI Fundamentals: Constraint-Based Production Scheduling course, led by renowned expert Helmut Simonis from University College Cork (UCC). This comprehensive two-day course taking place 21-22 November 2024 on-site in UCC , will explore cutting-edge Constraint Programming (CP) and its potential to revolutionize production scheduling.

Project and production scheduling is an important element in optimizing performance, reducing cost, and satisfying customer demand in industry. Scheduling solutions can address many problem types in manufacturing, from short-term, reactive operational scheduling to mid
to long term strategic capacity planning. AI based methods, in particular Constraint Programming, provide state-of-the-art solutions to the scheduling problem.

What to expect:

The skills development course will use a mix of industrial case studies, overview presentations and some hands-on experience with different open-source tools available for constraint-based scheduling. The course will show where scheduling fits in current AI trends, how different constraint types (temporal, resource based, and human related) can be used to describe a scheduling problem, and how a solution can help humans make better decisions.
