Abstract
Scheduling of manufacturing jobs is described herein. In accordance with an example, the scheduling of manufacturing jobs includes obtaining an order parameter associated with a product to be manufactured on a manufacturing equipment set. A product dimension of an intermediate product for the product is determined based on the order parameter and a production attribute. Further, the manufacturing job is scheduled for the product amongst manufacturing jobs for other products to be manufactured on the manufacturing equipment set, based on the product dimension of the intermediate product and a scheduling criterion. The scheduling criterion can be a parameter to regulate the scheduling of the manufacturing jobs on the manufacturing equipment set.
