- ItemOpen AccessAn Analysis of Factors affecting Cross Docking Operations(Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP), 2010) Balakrishnan, Jaydeep; Yang, Kum Khiong; Cheng, Chun HungUsing a simulation model of a cross dock, we examine the impacts of various options on moving freight between inbound and outbound trailers. The decisions examined include direct versus indirect handling of pallets, number of open receiving doors, door layout, number of forklifts, size of cross dock and freight mix. This study provides useful insights into handling freight in a cross dock.

- ItemOpen AccessModelling Rearrangement Constraints in Dynamic Layout(InderScience Publishers, 2013) Balakrishnan, Jaydeep; Cheng, Chun Hung; Lau, Chun MingThe dynamic plant layout problem (DPLP) deals with multi-period layout plans. Genetic algorithms have proved to be effective in solving DPLPs. In this research we consider a constraint on rearrangement. Such constraints may have to be considered not only in multi-period plant layout, but also in multi-period plant location and multi-period cellular manufacturing. We suggest proactive and reactive heuristic methods that can be used to modify existing genetic algorithms for the constrained situation. An extensive computational study is carried out to compare the proposed heuristics.

- ItemOpen AccessThe Theory of Constraints in Academia: It's Evolution, Influence, Controversies, and Lessons(Neilson Journals Publishing, 2008) Balakrishnan, Jaydeep; Cheng, Chun Hung; Trietsch, DanThe ‗Theory of Constraints‘ (TOC)—more appropriately described as Management by Constraints (MBC)—is a case of a development that has raised an interesting debate in the field of Operations Management. Points of debate include how much of TOC is a ‗refocus‘, how effective it has been, and how it relates and compares to other developments in Operations Management. In this paper, we focus on what lessons academics may learn about disseminating controversial developments from the debate that has accompanied TOC. With the tremendous information explosion, we may see more such controversial developments. Therefore examining the case of TOC may help academics, the people who are expected to play an important role in dissemination, to deal with similar developments in the future, in a balanced and critical manner.
