Abstract
A method for determining priority of a selected workpiece in a process flow including a plurality of operations includes providing an objective function relating manufacturing losses to workpiece priority for the operations in the process flow. The objective function is solved to generate priority metrics for at least a subset of the operations remaining for the selected workpiece to allow completion of the selected workpiece in the process flow by a target completion due time.
